He was formerly a columnist and editor for the online environmental site Grist and his work on food politics has appeared in Newsweek, Gastronomica, and the Guardian. Katy and Tom discuss ag-news items like blue green algae in water supplies, neonicotinoid insecticides, Bt-corn and more. This program was brought to you by Cain Vineyard & Winery.
