Frigid temperatures, snow and icy winds slammed Whatcom County this week, but unlike most people, dairy farmers had to be out in the nasty weather keeping their farms running. Sisters Leea Rainey Heeringa and Lynne Rainey Wheeler join Dillon to describe all of the challenges dairy farmers face in a winter storm.

How Whatcom dairy farmers made it through the winter storm

The Farming Show, hosted by Dillon Honcoop and produced by Save Family Farming, gives voice to the farmers, workers, and advocates fighting for the future of agriculture in Washington State. Each episode dives into the real challenges facing local farms—regulations, lawsuits, labor, water, and misinformation—while telling the human stories behind the headlines. Bold, honest, and unapologetically pro-farmer, the show exposes what’s threatening our food system and what’s being done to defend it.
