Easy Bee Farm is opening a new farm stand on Saturday. We talked to the farm stand manager, Mel Eliason, about the storefront and other upcoming news on the farm. Plus we hear from our partners at KUNC about new laws regarding the Colorado River. We also hear from a reporter at KSJD about plans to compensate Navajo coal miners with black lung. Finally, our partners at KHOL report on one Jackson resident who plans to be the first Jordanian skier to compete in the Winter Olympics.
