Hi All,

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of interviewing Sam Fromartz about the reporting work he and his colleagues do at FERN. They cover everything that has to do with food, agriculture, the environment, sustainability, and health. Their website is a resource you all need to know about, because their stories need to be heard! During our interview, we talked about the Farm Bill, which is in negotiations now, between the Senate version and the House version. If you want to get the whole story in just 6 minutes, check out the short video on their website! We talked about agricultures impact on Climate Change and the issues and policies that were discussed during last weeks Climate Change Summit in San Francisco. And we also talked about their upcoming event on October 1st, called Fern Talks and Eats, where there will be a panel discussion about the #MeToo Movement in the restaurant business. Amanda Cohen, the chef at Dirt Candy, and Ruth Reichl, former NY Times Dining Critic and Editor of Gourmet Magazine, will be heading up the discussion. This is an event you don’t want to miss!
