American Family Farmer and Host Doug Stephan www.eastleighfarm.com begins with sad news that 90 Organic Dairy Farms have lost their contracts to supply raw milk, beginning January 1, 2022. Next, we meet Stephanie Berkeley, Manager of Farm Safety Foundation/Yellow Wellies Charity. www.yellowwellies.org Stephanie’s BIO: Hailing from Donegal in Ireland, her friends were either farmers or fishermen; equally dangerous industries. The Farm Safety Foundation works closely with Young Farmers Clubs, HSE, the Farm Safety Partnerships and a range of farming organizations to help raise awareness of farm safety among young farmers, such as equipment accidents, skin cancer, hazardous chemicals, mental health, etc. Part of the formula includes national campaigns, such as Farm Safety Week and Mind Your Head. Finally, Farmer Doug opines about one of the philosophies that is killing Family Farms, "Get big, or get out!"
