A brief summary of this episode

Ever wondered about onions? We have to admit, we haven't much either. They're always just solidly, dependably there, waiting to be scooped up along with other pantry staples. They don't often make it into the headlines, and even during the pandemic, we didn't hear too much about them. This week, we caught up with Stephen Parrott, CFO at Fort Boise Produce in Idaho, a company that specializes in onions. Stephen walks us through how this agricultural sector has weathered the pandemic, what it's expecting for 2021, and gives us an inside view at how onions are marketed. This is a great episode with an engaging guest on a topic that isn't often discussed! Tune in.

This week, we take the reins and discuss consolidation in agriculture. We ask if big is bad, and consider what the pandemic has taught us about the American food supply chain. Do you think consolidation in the industry is a good thing or bad thing? Somewhere in between? Let us know!

This week, we dive into what ag producers' bottom lines actually looked like at the end of 2020. Amid near-record high and low prices combined with extreme volatility and more government assistance than usual, it's safe to say that 2020 was a year like no other. We're joined by the Idaho Dairymen's Association CEO, Rick Naerebout, who shares his perspective on how and why producers received payments, what the year ended up looking like for many producers, and his outlook for 2021 in the dairy industry. This episode is filled with great insights and a very engaging guest. Tune in!

Last year, the nation’s largest dairy food processor, Dean Foods, declared bankruptcy. About two weeks ago, many dairy producers were shocked and taken completely by surprise when they received demands for payment of funds paid to them by Dean Foods, by the company’s estate. This week, we’re joined by Jessica Peters of Spruce Row Farms in Pennsylvania to get the inside scoop on these demands on already-strapped dairy farmers.

As we barrel through the holidays, we thought it might be interesting to bring in a perspective we haven't heard from before: meat processing and research and product development. Natalie Wyne joins us this week to discuss what's really behind some of those labels that make us scratch our heads, including paleo, keto-friendly, and that perennial favorite, all-natural. Natalie sheds a little light on all the double talk in labeling, and talks with us about what fresh, never frozen actually means. This is a great and informative episode from a sector we haven't heard from before. Tune in!

Friends, we’re at the tail end of 2020. It’s certainly been a year for the books and the temptation to let the rest of the year slide is certainly enticing. This week, we share with you how we’ve leaned into some discomfort and change as the year starts to turn, and how it’s helping us learn grace for ourselves, focus on growth, and recognize that change isn’t just reserved for January 1. Join us as we lean into some vulnerability, and share what is and isn’t working for us as we learn how to risk and grow.
