A few months back Heather over at Wiggly Wigglers asked me to comment and give my views on what the trouble with farmers is, for a meeting of LEAF. Well I thought it over and recorded a provocative rant. It was a bit difficult as I wasn’t in front of the small group of farmers my audio was being played in front of.
You can pop on over and have a listen here–Show #65.
The other three speakers–knowing their audience far better than I–did a fantastic job bringing some important issues to light. I regret that I wasn’t actually there for the meeting myself. I have done some reading on LEAF and I am very impressed with their organization. We really need something like it in the States. My comments might be harsh, and somewhat off the wall, but I do hope they sparked some discussion and at least a few people saying–”I know someone like that. . .they need to change. . . .” But of course, as is so often the case, I may just have missed the mark by a wide margin.
