In response to rising #labor costs and a lack of workers, #growers are looking to robots to help them harvest their crops. #savefamilyfarming #robotics #harvest #apples Race to #robotic #apple #harvest in 'pivotal year' capitalpress.com/ag_sectors/orc… via @capitalpress
Organic dairy farmer Ryan Mensonides is betting everything on the future of local food, as he and his family work to launch their own creamery and market near Seattle. Full Episode: youtu.be/A2F8BwljRVM
"To be clear, if you are not one of the less than 1 percent of people who are producing food as a job, you are not an expert on how to do it," said Pam Lewison. No Respect for Farmers: there is a disconnect between lawmakers and producers rfdtv.com/story/46197618…
Could oysters and clams be the protein of the future? We sat down with shellfish farmer Francisco Santelices of Skagit Shellfish to learn how they rely on Skagit Bay's cold, clean water to grow some of the best oysters and clams around. Full Episode: youtu.be/4mAV-Gn620A

More coverage of farmers' and north Whatcom cities' frustration with @EcologyWA and @GovInslee's focus on a water rights court battle rather than pursuing real solutions for the water management crisis in the Nooksack basin. king5.com/video/news/loc…
"'The act’s going to come at a huge loss of farmland. If we lose our farmland, we’re going to lose our local food system.'" bit.ly/3L8k2UJ @GovInslee #waleg
LIVE NOW: Watch the House Rural Development, Agriculture & Natural Resources Committee hearing on HB 1838, the state's new plan that would virtually end farming in Western Washington. tvw.org/video/house-ru… #waleg
🚨URGENT ACTION ALERT🚨 We need your voice now to stop a new state plan that would literally kill most farming in Western WA, and deeply harm farming in Eastern WA. It’s up for a hearing this morning at 10 in Olympia. Take action now: actnow.io/XFfc4fO
Gonna be a while before local farmers can get Canadian canola meal by rail through Sumas again. Hearing that a cattle feed crisis in Whatcom County could be looming.
Come see us at the @wacattle & WA CattleWomen Convention in Kennewick! @dairy_agent @DillonHoncoop @WABeef
What's the truth about the controversial H-2A Guest Worker program? Farm worker housing manager Luis Guitron shares his personal story, as @DillonHoncoop visits an actual guest worker housing facility in Okanogan, WA. Full episode: youtu.be/V8-NY7tfQhs #h2a #farmworkers
Sadly, this is far from the first time government regulators and activists have been caught falsifying science--and it doesn't get any more fake than citing a study that never even happened! capitalpress.com/ag_sectors/liv…
This PNW-based farmer-turned-recycler has a powerful solution to America's food waste problem. Luke Dynes aims to drastically reduce the amount of food that ends up in landfills. In fact, he's already doing it right here in Washington and Oregon. youtu.be/S-OfK9lhIFQ
This beef and dairy farmer is dangerously close to achieving sustainable carbon neutrality on his farm near Royal City, WA. It may surprise you what Austin Allred of @theroyaldairy says is the secret to carbon neutrality & building soil health. youtu.be/o0f_5jWmXy0
It’s wrong that @GovInslee, @EcyLauraWatson and @EcologyWA continue to push for an antiquated process that would stall—for decades—the work that’s needed immediately to protect & restore salmon here in the Nooksack River Basin. We need collaboration, not courts.

@savefarming says the Inslee administration can't put off addressing water problems in Whatcom County any longer. pnwag.net/2021/08/25/sav…
Seattle chef Kevin Davis shares the heartbreaking story of being forced to close his four celebrated, local food-focused restaurants. But the tragic end to his restaurants brought him closer than ever to his passion for reconnecting our food system. youtu.be/LyCEkmZbu4E
Jagwinder Singh Gill is passionate about growing blueberries and stewarding the environment on and around his new farm near Everson, WA. But he already fears for his farm's future. He explains why in the full episode: youtu.be/KrTSwtyXzJw

This is an excellent interview by @DillonHoncoop with a local-to-me farmer, Andrew Albert of Arlington. A passionate, articulate discussion of the pressures on small farms and how vital passing down knowledge and opportunity (as in available farmland) to the next generation is.
Growing local beef and crops not far from Seattle, Andrew Albert knows he's part of a dying breed. But he doesn't think it should be that way. Hear the real reason he keeps farming in spite of the stress. Full Episode: bit.ly/3OG0xVx
