There's a 70-day window to turn a national labeling initiative into real marketing momentum for your farm, and most farmers don't know it exists. The American Pastured Poultry Producers Association (APPPA) has filed petitions with USDA and FDA to establish consistent "pasture raised" standards for egg labeling. That's newsworthy, and local news organizations are actively looking for exactly this kind of national-story-with-local-impact angle. In this episode I walk through how to pitch your story to local media, use the coverage to deepen customer relationships, and keep people engaged all the way through the comment deadline. Comment deadlines: USDA June 5, 2026 | FDA June 6, 2026 Templates, scripts, and how to submit a comment: Farmmarketingsolutions.com/action

03 27 26 Farmer Friday! by Ag PhD

The recent Epstein files dump has finally produced documentary confirmation of what Maria Farmer has said for decades: in 1996, she formally warned the Federal Bureau of Investigation about Jeffrey Epstein, and those warnings were effectively ignored. For years, the FBI refused to confirm or deny Farmer's account, while she was publicly portrayed as unreliable or exaggerating. The newly released records show that federal authorities were aware of Epstein's conduct far earlier than they ever admitted. This reframes the Epstein story away from bureaucratic incompetence and toward deliberate institutional inaction. The documents establish that Farmer was not speculating or theorizing—she was reporting crimes in real time. Instead of being treated as a key witness, she was sidelined. The result was years of unchecked abuse that could have been interrupted. The files now make clear that the FBI knew exactly who Epstein was long before his eventual prosecution.The unanswered question is why those warnings were ignored, and the files intensify—not resolve—that mystery. One plausible explanation, long suggested by Farmer and others, is that Epstein's status as a potential or actual confidential informant made him untouchable. That possibility would explain the extraordinary resistance to releasing Farmer's records and the institutional hostility she encountered.    One thing is for certain and is now backed by documentation: she told the truth as she understood it, and the authorities failed to act. The FBI's silence and obstruction allowed Epstein to continue operating with impunity. History has now caught up to Farmer's account. What remains is a moral reckoning for the institutions that ignored her—and an overdue acknowledgment that she was right from the beginning.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:EFTA00006107.pdf

FREE Master Class: The Farm Marketing Fix Sign Up HERE What does a profitable flower farm actually look like from the inside? Not just the revenue numbers, but the daily life? Brooke Palmer of Jenny Creek Flowers in Ithaca, New York gives us the real picture. A former teacher with 20+ years in the classroom, Brooke started her flower farm knowing she could grow, but having no idea how to sell. Her first year solo was rough. Then she joined Farm Marketing Mastery, and three years later she hasn't looked back. In this update episode, Brooke shares what year five actually looks like: six figures in revenue, profitable for the third year in a row, workshops that sell out with waitlists, and a winter tulip CSA that went from 1,000 bulbs to 20,000. She's also made a decision most farmers struggle to make — she's choosing to stop growing, because she's found her sweet spot. We dig into the email marketing crash that happened mid-launch and became her best launch ever, the spring crop failure that forced hard conversations with customers, why her calendar has become her most powerful business tool, and the simple morning mindset ritual that rewired her thinking over three years. If you've ever wondered whether the calm, profitable farm life is actually possible — or whether it's just something other farmers get — Brooke's story is your answer. Click HERE and Let's Meet! Chat with us to see if The Profitable Farmer can break you out of marketing misery.

When several art students came forward to corroborate Maria Farmer's account of her trip to Jeffrey Epstein's New Mexico compound with Ghislaine Maxwell, their testimony should have been a turning point. It was independent, credible, and detailed—precisely the kind of supporting evidence that, in a just system, strengthens a survivor's case. Yet, in the rarefied air of high society, truth is often treated as a nuisance rather than a compass. The corroboration was met with the same pattern of silence, dismissal, and selective blindness that always seems to emerge when accusations target the powerful. The goal wasn't to disprove the art students—it was to make their voices irrelevant.Their accounts undercut the “he said, she said” defense that Maxwell's defenders quietly leaned on, yet the institutions and individuals capable of acting on the information showed no urgency to do so. That's because acknowledging the art students meant acknowledging that Maria Farmer's accusations were not isolated, but part of a broader and corroborated pattern of abuse. In high society, that's dangerous—because one open door of truth often leads to an entire hallway of scandal. Instead of embracing the credibility these witnesses brought, the powerful chose to bury it under the weight of their own self-preservation, proving once again that truth does not topple power unless power allows it.To contact me:Bobbycapucci@protonmail.com Source:https://www.google.com/amp/s/news.artnet.com/art-world/epstein-ranch-art-students-1760265/amp-pageBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

This episode was originally aired on April 25, 2025 and it was a top performing episode on Farm+Food+Facts.  U.S. Farmers & Ranchers in Action established an independent scientific working group to analyze the potential for U.S. agriculture to collectively reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and possibly achieve a state of negative emissions, or emitting fewer total GHGs than are sequestered. The resulting report, “Potential for U.S. Agriculture to be Greenhouse Gas Negative,” was peer-reviewed and published. In this episode, we dive deeper into one of the key areas of opportunity outlined in the report: Nitrogen fertilizer management.Join Farm+Food+Facts host Joanna Guza and Dr. Bruno Basso, professor of earth and environmental sciences at Michigan State University, as they discuss how nitrogen management can help improve farmer profitability and reduce emissions.

MPs on the Public Accounts Committee have called for the merger of the Environment Agency and Natural England. In a new report the committee criticises both organisations - saying that environmental regulators are 'spread too thin to protect nature while delivering reforms'. We speak to Wildlife and Countryside Link which represents dozens of conservation groups to see if they think a merger would work. Farmers and crofters are calling for more help to control geese. Warmer winters mean more geese are staying in Scotland over the winter and farmers say they're ruining crops and soiling grazing. Some species can be shot, but others are protected. NFU Scotland is calling for urgent action to help reduce their numbers. This week we've been taking a look back through history, to discover the foundations of our farming and landscape. If you've ever wondered why we have so many hedges or why rural Britain looks like it does today you have to go back to one of the most seismic events which happened over 200 years ago - The Enclosure Act.

#269:  Recorded live at Real Organic Project's Churchtown event, this Farmer Friday talk features JM Fortier in front of an audience of working farmers, sharing the systems and economics behind one of the best-known small-scale market gardens in North America. He discusses permanent raised beds, human-scale tools, greenhouse production, irrigation, labor, compost, and why pricing vegetables correctly is one of the most important parts of growing vegetables for profit. The result is a grounded, farmer-to-farmer conversation about how to grow better, not just bigger, while building a farm that can endure.https://realorganicproject.org/jm-fortier-farmer-friday-growing-vegetables-for-profitThe Real Organic Podcast is hosted by Dave Chapman and Linley Dixon, engineered by Brandon StCyr, and edited and produced by Jenny Prince.The Real Organic Project is a farmer-led movement working towards certifying 1,000 farms across the United States. Our add-on food label distinguishes soil-grown fruits and vegetables from hydroponically-raised produce, and pasture-raised meat, milk, and eggs from products harvested from animals in horrific confinement (CAFOs - confined animal feeding operations).To find a Real Organic farm near you, please visit:https://www.realorganicproject.org/directoryWe believe that the organic standards, with their focus on soil health, biodiversity, and animal welfare were written as they should be, but that the current lack of enforcement of those standards is jeopardizing the ability for small farms who adhere to the law to stay in business. The lack of enforcement is also jeopardizing the overall health of the customers who support the organic movement; customers who are not getting what they pay for at market but still paying a premium price. And the lack of enforcement is jeopardizing the very cycles (water, air, nutrients) that Earth relies upon to provide us all with a place to live, by pushing extractive, chemical agriculture to the forefront.If you like what you hear and are feeling inspired, we would love for you to join our movement by becoming one of our 1,000  Real Friends:https://www.realorganicproject.org/real-organic-friends/To read our weekly newsletter (which might just be the most forwarded newsletter on the internet!) and get firsthand news about what's happening with organic food, farming and policy, please subscribe here:https://www.realorganicproject.org/email/

In today's episode, we explore the range of people who whose job is to help farmers, and how to get the most out of these relationships. We refer to these people as a group as technical assistance, or “TA” providers, and it can include extension agents, people at nonprofit or NGOs, professors, etc. And our guest today is one of those people- Sarah Geurkink is the Organic Production Specialist for the Organic Association of Kentucky [OAK].  Sarah draws on her own farming background and experience working with farmers at OAK to help growers understand how to find TA providers and what kind of assistance they can provide for farm projects. Listeners who want to learn more can find the article Sarah co-wrote from the February 2026 Growing for Market Magazine, “How to work with extension agents and other folks who help farmers,” linked in the show notes.
