She recently attended Farm Aid, the annual concert event that originally was held to provide funding to struggling farmers in the 1980’s. Since then farming has become even more challenging, but Farm Aid has seemed to shift its focus to more political causes than direct farmer assistance. Michelle reports what she experienced at a recent Farm Aid concert and its associated press conference. It is clear that they have minimal interest in supporting large “factory” producers and are focusing on practices and production techniques that are more compatible with a specific agenda about food.<br> Follow Michelle on Twitter: <a href="http://www.twitter.com/thefarmbabe"> @TheFarmBabe</a><br> And her <a href="https://thefarmbabe.com/">website</a>.<br>
