Ep. 31: Live with Ann & Essy at the Farm

- Today, Rip is sitting on the front porch with Ann and Essy as they reminisce about the early days on the land and prepare for the kick-off of our 9th Annual Plant-Stock event starting Friday night. This farm, as you’ll learn, has been in my family since 1685, and, in fact, is one of only two family farms in New York state that has been owned and operated by the same family for over 335 years! There’s a certain magic in bringing Plant-Stock back to its original home. Hear about Essy's Olympic gold medal and the story of how they first met.

Became plant strong thanks to Essie, Rip, Jane and Ann. Lost 50 lbs and down to 120 and have kept it off for a couple years so far. Thank you!
What a family! The 4 kids and 10 grands are sooooo fortunate to have such incredible and loving parents/grandparents.
I feel like I am an honorary family member just by watching! LOVED it.
30+ year whole food vegan here, and fit at 62.
One of the finest families in the US! I adore all of them! So unpretentious, so insightful. I think they have done so much to open peoples eyes to living a healthy lifestyle by being “plants only”. So glad I found them on UTube. ♥️
Thanks Rip for highlighting your dad who had such positive influence on my health and life even though I am thousand of miles from you guys. Can't thanks him enough.
My wife and I want you to adopt us into your adorable family.
What an amazing family!
Essy’s a champ alright, and not just for his prowess as an oarsman. His work in reversing heart disease is both pioneering and eye-popping. He has called me a couple of times here in Canada to give me some help with my 70 years of type 1 diabetes and CVD. He’s kind of stern at times but unfailingly gracious and generous. Not to mention a nuanced sense of humour. Is there any reason why we can’t get this guy nominated for a Nobel Prize? I’d certainly be happy to work on such an effort. Maybe include Dean Ornish as well for his contributions as well.

Great to hear he's kind of stern. No tip toeing around!
Nice seeing good people being good, down to earth people. These are they type of personalities and families I grew up with and try to surround myself with. Sometimes I wonder why the world has had to get so complicated and full of hostility. Life is a good life to be lived and enjoyed together. And of course Plant strong. 🥦
Thank you for all your gifts that you bless us with everyday. May God shine his face about you
In good health and great happiness 😊
Lovely family and I just love your sassy mom!! Thanks for sharing your family history.
What a wonderful grandma ☺️
Can’t get enough of the Esselstyn’s, especially Ann. She is so adorable. Thanks for letting us hear about Dr. Esselstyn’s accomplishments in the boat. Great stories!
I watched the whole video. What a beautiful couple Ann and Essy are and what a legacy they have created. I loved the passionate recollection of Essy's Gold Medal win, but the last three minutes sum up their contribution the best. Thank you all for your continued work. My husband and I are 100% plant-based for 14 months now and loving it! It has never been easier to live this lifestyle. I was vegan from 1998-2003, but sadly slid back into the SAD, but now there is no going back. I wish we could find a supportive medical community to embrace this lifestyle and just may find ourselves coming to Cleveland to do so!
Thanks for watching - so glad it was inspiring. We agree, Ann and Essy are national treasures!
I messed up a bit below, so I’ll add that I am now a vegan, and loving all of the new recipes I’m learning to cook with “NO OIL”,
Ann is so precious. Love hearing from her. The good doctor is always a great interview.
My husband’s grandfather graduated from Yale in 1917, Howard Henn, he may have gone to school with your grandfather. The Henn’s lived in Cleveland Ohio and I think I heard your mother say she was from Cleveland. The Henn’s owned Acme Cleveland and built the Henn Mansion.
Such a pleasure learning more about the family farm and about Essy's background in rowing. Thank you Rip for all that you do and your great influence. See you virtually at Plant-Stock.
I love the Olympic story!
Much gratitude for you sharing all of your wonderful family’s stories
Thank you all for sharing their amazing history and family story. God Bless. 🇨🇦🙏❤️
You guys are great, doing great work for the movement. Your father is a legend, thank you!!
A beautiful family. They have given so much.🌻
Thank you! What a wonderful family and so humble! Been on your team for 10 years eating WFPB!
Omg Thank you so so much ,
I literally had tears of joy!
Just to see such a wonderful close family. What an inspiration you are to so many of us! Everyone of you !
I grew up in Upstate.
Now live in California.
I miss Upstate it so much!
Whenever I’m having a hard time stating PLANT 🌱 STRONG 💪 I watch Jane and mommy as she so affectionately calls her.
Or a Rip video. I have some real health issues to overcome Multiple Sclerosis being one of them. I refuse to take the medication they want to put me on . I’m so thankful to your family . For giving so much of yourselves to us.
The only time I feel good is when I’m eating Plant Strong !
Thank you Rip for all of your work and interviews to advocate for a healthy life style 😍🙏🏼
You are creative a very knowledgeable about food and wear you do :) just want to say thank you and I love your vegetable broth a lot .
They are my favorite 🤩 and of course your breakfast cereal 🥣
Thanks for the kind words!! We appreciate you!
I love that cute Ann basically stalked Essy. LOL
SO wonderful to hear all the details of Essy's race.
As an Australian born an raised in Sydney it was lovely to hear Essy's story about the 1956 Olympics in Australia. Been vegan for over 4 years now. Best decision I have ever made for the animals & amazing health outcomes. 65years old & on no medication. Lost 33lbs in about 7 months. Osteoarthritis in most of my joints since my 40's gone in 4 months. More energy, sleeping better. I feel better than I can ever remember. Bless you & your family for all that you do for better health outcomes for the people who's lives you touch.
Your family wins the team Gold Medal for health & happiness! Congrats and Thank You
Definitely!!
I teared up listening how Dr. E. described the exciting end of the big race. Thank you Dr. Esselstyn & all your family. Y’all changed my life. 🌱🕊🙏❤️
Precious!!! We loved hearing the story behind this wonderful family. God bless you all!!!
Essy ‘s book revolutionized my family’s health!!
Wow, love this story! Such a cool family history!
I was born and raised in Rochester, NY. Essy kindly called me years ago when I was struggling really bad with a blown endocrine system that triggered severe hypoglycemia to the point I could not eat ANY carbs and had to quit being vegan for a few years. I sadly missed his call, but what an incredible thing to do. I had emailed him about my depressing plight. Thankfully, I am back to vegan now.
Wow. Hope you’re doing well now. Do you know the cause of your endocrine system blowing?
Thanks for the peek into your family's legacy. Wow! What amazing people!
I ❤️ Dr. Esselstyn!
What a wonderful term of endearment when Essy calls Anne mummy!
Thank you Rip, I love Dr Esselstyn!!! 😎😎😎
You have an incredible family. I attended your immersion in Sedona in 2015 and unfortunately your father could not be there --it would’ve been great to have met him, but I did meet you and Jane.
Carry-on !
Cute interview. I 💚 Ann! I'm so excited for Plant Stock 2020 to begin!
You are such a wonderful family, and it's so inspiring also how each of you individually contribute your all to enlighten and guide our sick population back to true health! Thank you for all you do!
Absolutely loved hearing about Dr Esselstyn's life. Am a great fan of your entire family; all doing wonderful work for us all. I have really embraced the plant-strong life especially as a result of Dr. Esselstyn. Loved the story of your Rowing gold medal at the 1956 Olympics, especially being a 7 year old Australian growing up in Melbourne at that exciting time. My youngest son, now 36, rowed at Melbourne High School for 4 years and I can attest to the friendships and values instilled from this sport. Thank you Ann & Jane, love your cooking demonstrations. I have, and value your 2 books, also Rips. Thank you all!!
I’d love to hear more about how and when Ann and Essy met and their early years.
Also, how is your ankle healing, Rip?
Such a delightful conversation, with a wonderful family :) Thank you !!
PEACE Engine 2 Plant Strong!
What a great loving family
Thank you Rip for highlighting Doctor Esselstyn and his exciting life and memories. The plant-based proponents are so fortunate to have him as a pioneer in proper nutrition at this much needed time.✨
Love this family and life meaning
BEAUTIFUL. JUST BEAUTIFUL.
What a beautiful family!
God bless this family! Thank you for everything you do!
Love your family 💕
Amazing 😉 thank you all for sharing part of you story, I would like to hear more from you all of you guys!!!
This is fantastic Rip!
Boola Boola! Yale ‘77 giving a shout out to Essy! Love these family stories, and reliving crew glory! Thank you!
What a great story your father shared about his formative years! Thanks for sharing!
I lived in NYS for 15 years and there were hundreds of other family farms that were lost because the families were squeezed out by big corporations and nasty politics. I miss the mountains-I lived in Elmira-beautiful state.
I'd love to hear more about those families being squeezed out and how it happened. Could you share some stories, or can you direct me to where I might learn about them?
What a great video! Thanks for sharing your stories with us!
That was absolutely delightful! Thank you for sharing your stories!💛🙏🏻🏜💛
Your parents are amazing 🤩
Awesome! 💕
Love this
RIP LOOKS LIKE A MAMMA BOY 🙏🙏he looks like his mom too
I live in Cuse and I absolutely loved the regatta. Use to watch it all the time. Use to watch them practicing. Of course all that good stuff is gone now at the lake.
majestic
Hello Rip, we do need to speak to you and we grow foods all plant base and you will love what we do
It's like we are sitting right there on the porch with you all!! See you Friday!!🥬💪🏼👊🏼
Wow you guys are awesome. Never knew these stories. Are you doing Plantstock this year?
Mother and son look's exactly alike!
❤️
man I wish I could come visit you guys . I am about 20 minutes away in Rhinebeck
Born in 1933. And I think he went vegan in 83. So in his 50s when he gave up meat. Interesting to note. Maybe a question around that would be interesting.
Is everything from PlantStock going to be recorded so I can watch later?
Yes! Videos are included for everyone.
How did the rowing team travel from the United Stated to Australia?
Youngest 86 year old ive ever seen!
I WAS AT WOODSTOCK!
@Just Say No to Pseudoscience. Hey Pseudoscience! Who cares if you were at Woodstock!😂
Cherish those memories!
You know, Riverdale reminds me of "The Archie" comics.
Is this property still a working farm?
Wonderful! The story of “seconds” he tells 53:30-56:06... I once found myself in a very similar situation in Lithuania, but as luck would have it, this lady was very, very catholic.
So I said: But ma’am... gluttony is one of the deadly sins! (Whereupon I was absolved.)
I really enjoyed this interview, but I feel that you should have interviewed Ann also. I feel like she was disrespected and overlooked. why are females treated like they are second class citizens? I want to learn about your mother’s life also. Otherwise, great interview. By the way, I have
Been greatly influenced by Dr Esselstyn, and have both of your books, Rip, and the cookbook book by Jane and Ann. Thanks, I’m now enjoying my new life at 80 yrs, fowwowing open heart surgery 10 yrs. ago
Dismissive of Ann again. Pushing her away like a dog. Im sorry i cant listen to the hoity name dropping. Idk legally blind finding 4 leaf clovers? Ya right whatever.
@Betty Mon? Ann is a rock star and interviews with her are on internet. Her family adores her and she is NOT disrespected by them!!! Check out her numerous videos with Jane. Two personal interviews online about family history.
A delightful family!
