It’s a new year and I am reminding myself of what I previously wrote about the power of conversation: “Let us start to rise above the chatter … changing it to conversations that seek understanding, address challenging issues from farm to plate and ultimately find solutions for all, not just a few.” While another podcast will not change the world, we can have conversations about the issues at hand. The debut of “Rooted & Restless with Marianne Smith Edge” is designed to do just that. What has been a “seven-year contemplation” is finally a reality thanks to those who have provided advice, listened, and are now “sitting across the table.”
So come join me! Let’s look for opportunities to converse, rise above the chatter and remember — whether we grow, prepare or serve food — it’s about providing food that is economically viable, is accessible and promotes good health for all. Subscribe and listen to “Rooted & Restless with Marianne Smith Edge” on your favorite podcast platform — Spotify, Amazon, Apple, and iHeart — or watch on YouTube.
