Before he became the third President of the United States, Thomas Jefferson envisioned a country of \'citizen farmers\' who would be engaged in government. Jefferson would have been pleased with citizens like Iowa farmer Francis Thicke and Vermont farmer Dave Chapman who climb off their tractors to Zoom with the Secretary of Agriculture about needed policy infrastructure repairs to the USDA Organic program. A thousand farmer have already joined with them to give consumers assurance of Real Organic production practices and to rescue the reputation and trust in Certified Organic. It\'s wrong when farmers are passive about what they grow and it\'s wrong when consumers are passive about what they eat. Jefferson could see farmers and eaters  saying \"we the people are going to do it on our own.\" www.realorganicproject.org

Nonpassive Farmers &  Eaters – Francis Thicke & Dave Chapman

Is it best that our food is Local and Organic or Big and Conventional? Our view is “Both, and..” We don’t come to the table with a bias, except that good farming like good food comes in all shapes and sizes. Farm to Table Talk explores issues and the growing interest in the story of how and where the food on our tables is produced, processed and marketed. The host, Rodger Wasson is a food and agriculture veteran.  Although he was the first of his family to leave the grain and livestock farm after five generations farming in America,  he’s continually worked for and with farmers though-out America and around the world. From directly managing commodity boards and councils to presently building the strategic consultancy, Idea Farming Inc., the Farm to Table Talk podcast has been created to satisfy the curiosity of today’s engaged consumers.
