Saving the American farm
How are government policies affecting American farms and rural communities and what can we do to support them? We talk with Sarah Frey, author of “The Growing Season: How I Built a New Life--and Saved an American Farm” throughout this special series episode of “The Future of Democracy x Miami Book Fair,” about American farms and how they’re affected by today’s policies. Sarah shares her personal experience of how she transformed her childhood farm of 80 acres into Frey Farms, an expansive business that spans across the United States, and works hard to bring opportunities to those in rural areas. The 37th annual Miami Book Fair takes place this year from November 15-22. To learn more, visit miamibookfaironline.com.
