157. Farmer, Interrupted

Hey there food fans! After a short hiatus, I am glad to bring you more of The Food For ThoughtCast. Thank you so much for listening and for following on social media. I am joined today for Episode 157 by Wayne Swanson Jr. He is the Founder and CEO of Swanson Family Farm, a Black-owned, multi-generational farm dedicated to producing premium, pasture-raised meats while advancing sustainable agriculture and food sovereignty. We discuss getting to know your food supply, the hype around organic, and how one becomes a farmer and rancher. This conversation was intriguing and completely mesmerizing, I could have talked to Wayne for an additional hour and I hope to have him back on in the future. Find him on social media at Swanson Family Farm on both Facebook and Instagram. I can't wait to buy some beef!
