Host and American Family Farmer Doug Stephan www.eastleighfarm.com begins news that the Food Sovereignty Act passed this week, in Maine, as part of the state's Constitution. Also, news about recalled bagged lettuce and the state of broadband internet in rural areas. Next, we meet Jim Roberts, Chairman of the Board - Farm to Consumer Foundation. www.f2cfnd.org The foundation's mission is to educate and bring local farmers and customers together. They have a report on how farmers and consumers in Michigan were able to form a co-existent relationship with the Department of Ag, so fresh milk could be produced and distributed. They run a number of social media approaches and will be announcing a "be thankful for your farmer" contest for Thanksgiving. Applicants will provide a photo of their farmer with their favorite locally farmed product and a 500+ word story about why that i s their favorite locally farmed product. Finally, Farmer Doug expresses objection to a proposed clean-air tax that cost dairy farmers $650 per cow.
