Tireless food and industry advocate
Erika Polmar joins us to discuss the nefarious plans Dollar General
and other stores like it have to decimate local food
economies. Erika shares the history of this movement starting
with Walmart and the vacumm left in their wake for Dollar
stores to step in and suck dollars from small towns, leaving a less
healthy populace and food system as a result.
We also begin with an epilogue from
Erika about her 20 years doing farm dinners -- what their purpose
was -- some of the joys and challenges, and why she decided to
cease producing them.
