Doug Stephan, Host and American Family Farmer www.eastleighfarm.com begins with news about Joe Biden's support for competition in farming. Did you know that the farmer's share of every food dollar has shrunk from 50% in 1950 to 16% today? Then, news of a South Dakota farmer who is suing the Federal Government over declaring his land, with a little puddle, as a protected wetland. Next, we meet Michael Robinov, who launched Farm To People, with cofounder von Haeften and his father David Robinov in 2013. www.farmtopeople.com Farm to People is a food subscription service, based in Brooklyn, NY that connects farmers directly with consumers. They curate boxes of vegetables, meats, seafood and other grocery items and deliver every week. They have relationships with farmers and growers within 300 miles of NYC, with plans to expand farther. Finally, Farmer Doug opines about how 800 dairy farms in Minnesota went out of business, due to the mega-factory dairies. He believes that smaller farms need to be beefed up.
