Why We Need To Pay Our Farmers More

Our food system hits closer to home than you might think. I mean, we all eat several times a day, so it only makes sense that we should be connected to where that food is coming from and how it’s impacting our health, environment, economy, and communities.

Not only that, but we should also be thinking about the people who grow our food. A recent report from the American Farm Bureau Foundation shows farm bankruptcies are up 24% from last year. I dive into this and much more on this week’s episode of The Doctor’s Farmacy with my guest, Kimbal Musk.

Kimbal is a chef, restaurateur, and philanthropist. His personal mission is to pursue an America where everyone has access to real food. He’s been named a Global Social Entrepreneur by the World Economic Forum and is the co-founder and Executive Chairman of three businesses—The Kitchen Restaurant Group, Big Green, and Square Roots—with real food missions that are rapidly growing across the US.
