Still Farming: COVID-19

In this first episode of a brand new season of Tennessee Magic Moments, Samantha Jean with the Tennessee Department of Agriculture and Lauren Vath with the UT Institute of Agriculture look at how the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the agriculture community.

How can we still support our local farmers while staying safe during a time when six feet of distance is the new normal? We tackle your questions and hear directly from the farmers, markets, government officials and others.
