Maybe this concept could be promoted by each of the farmers markets in the state to its vendorship and customers.

A perfect followup to the farm product distribution hub concept: Frank
Stasio's SOT tonight: interview with author of Animal Factory. This is
well worth listening to. Rick is encouraging more farmers and their
farms going online to up the percentage of our population that supplies
food to the rest of us. This is truly advanced thought and that is an
understatement.

Animal Factory

Rick Dove was a father who simply wanted to take his son fishing. But he
became an unlikely environmental activist when he witnessed the damage
that waste spills and runoff from industrial hog farms had on his
beloved Neuse river. Rick’s journey took him to the Triangle’s
university labs and the halls of Raleigh’s Capitol. It included a
mysterious microscopic organism, a Pulizter-prize winning newspaper
investigation and several lawsuits. And it’s one of three narratives
journalist David Kirby includes in his new book, “Animal Factory,” (St.
Martin’s Press/ 2010) about the threats posed by industrial meat
production. David Kirby joins host Frank Stasio to share Rick’s story
and other tales from the factory farm.
