Host and American Family Farmer, Doug Stephan www.eastleighfarm.com begins with Agriculture News and the headline this week is: Food Prices Are Going Up. Hopefully, Family Farms are getting their fair share. The American public is resisting it, but it's a fact of life. Next, news that multi-billionaire Bill Gates is buying up farmland, like crazy. Then, Doug introduces us to the President and Co-Founder of Farm Sanctuary, Gene Baur. https://www.farmsanctuary.org For nearly 35 years, Bill has traveled extensively around the country, campaigning to raise awareness about the abuses of industrialized factory farming and our current food system. He is credited with initiating passage of the first U.S. laws to prohibit cruel farming confinement methods, winning the first-ever cruelty conviction at a U.S. stockyard, and inspiring an international farm sanctuary movement. Finally, Farmer Doug offers his opinions on food waste. One third of all of our food in this country goes to waste.
