Host and American Family Farmer Doug Stephan www.eastleighfarm.com begins by sharing his recent experience testifying at a hearing on growing Hemp. Hear what he did to shake up the room. Then, there's good news that Florida is experiencing a plentiful Citrus harvest. Next, we meet Niaz Dorry, Coordinating Director at North Atlantic Marine Alliance http://www.namanet.org/ and Executive Director at the National Family Farm Coalition https://nffc.net/ . Niaz moved to Gloucester, Massachusetts - the oldest settled fishing port in the U.S. - in 1994 when she decided to work on fisheries issues. At the time, she was an ocean and fisheries campaigner for Greenpeace. She has been working with small-scale, traditional, and indigenous fishing communities in the U.S. and from around the globe ever since, advancing the rights and ecological benefits of the small-scale fishing communities as a means of protecting global marine biodiversity. Niaz Dorry was named Executive Director of NFFC in May 2018. NFFC and NAMA have entered into an innovative shared leadership model, with Niaz at the helm of both organizations. Time Magazine named Niaz as a Hero for The Planet for her work. Finally, Doug opines about the relationship between the Family Farm and Big Oil.
