What's For Dinner?

David Gumpert and Ben Grosscup preview Northeast Organic Farming Association's 2013 summer conference, introducing the raw milk workshop and defining this premier meeting's goals. Much happens in 3 days. Farmers, gardeners, teachers, activists, lawyers, young and old, families and public officials share information about farming as a livelihood and about raising, marketing and using food and forage. They bring experience and strategies for civic engagement to preserve seeds, markets and democratic principles. David came to raw milk research and writing from the business press and has just published Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Food Rights: The Escalating Battle Over Who Decides What We Eat. Ben is NOFA's Education Events and Summer Conference Coordinator who comes from student activism.
