Back in May at the Southern Adirondack Homesteading Festival, I was introduced to Natalie, the manager of our local region for the NY Farm Bureau.  We became friends.  She has been trying to convince me to join the organization, but I wasn't convinced that it would be a good fit.  While their mission is advocacy and education relating to agricultural issues, I didn't think they would care about the issues and concerns that homesteaders face.  As I shared some of those concerns with Natalie, she said to me, "Brian, NYFB cannot advocate for problems they don't know exist.  They can't provide education in areas they are unaware that people are struggling with."  Well, what changed?  And why did I finally join NYFB?  Listen and find out.

Enjoy, 
Brian
