Now More Than Ever: Protecting Our Communities Through Sustainable Agriculture
Virtual Town Hall - May 26
Over the past two decades, Delmarva agriculture has shifted from traditional diversified family farming to a more industrialized system of raising animals. Large, powerful companies dictate how animals are raised, processed and sold and bear no responsibility for the public health impacts and environmental degradation in our local communities. The disastrous consequences have been highlighted, and in some cases exacerbated, by the current COVID-19 crisis.
