Farm to Fork is a radio program dedicated to the history and progression of the food system within the Pioneer Valley. The program tackles the complexity of food within different production schemes and consumer markets. Much of the focus is on the Pioneer Valley but we will often venture beyond its borders to ask how our food system is impacted by external factors. Every show will offer critical analysis and insight into the food system, in-depth interviews, calendar updates on food and food related events, and of course music related to or inspired by food.
This episode we talk via Zoom with Eric Tiedeman–Mau, Employee Owner of Gardener’s Supply in Hadley, MA.
