What's the first thing you think about when you hear the term farmland?  Most people have likely never thought about investing in farmland, but today, I have the perfect guest to explain why you might want to consider it. Rob Moore, general manager at AcreTrader, dives into the details of farmland investing appeal as an asset class and why it can be a powerful addition to a diversified portfolio, especially during uncertain economic times.  Rob breaks down the fundamentals of farmland investing, explaining how AcreTrader's platform works, what makes farmland investments unique, and the logic behind buying a finite resource in a world with growing demand and shrinking supply. Rob and I contrast farmland ownership with other forms of real estate, clear up myths about big corporations taking over family farms, and discuss the mechanics of lease agreements, appreciation, and investor returns.  We highlight the intersection of technology, generational farming, and accessible investing, reminding you why sometimes the best asset class is the most boring one in your portfolio.

 Host and American Family Farmer, Doug Stephan www.eastleighfarm.com shares the news affecting small farmers in America, including a focus on Dairy Month and the dairy market in the United States and how the tariffs are creating a domino effect for both an upside and a downside. Continuing with cattle talk, the culling of cows is on the rise due to illnesses in cattle, poor milk supply, and an inability to produce as much protein in butterfat. Then, Doug introduces us to Erin Bradley and Jesse Leadbetter of Freshlist (freshlist.com), based in North Carolina. Founded in 2014, Freshlist was born from the belief that farmers and farmland are among the most valuable resources, with a mission to make sustainable family farming a financially viable way of life once again. The main question they ask themselves in every endeavor is, “is it good for the farmer?” They focus on challenges farmers face, provide support to the farming community in Charlotte, and connect community members with local farmers by cultivating a better food system. Additionally, Freshlist doesn't just talk the talk about providing healthy food by connecting the community with farmers, but they walk the walk with the purpose of everyone is deserving of access to nutritious food. Last, and certainly not least, Doug opines the harsh reality that most farmers are in jeopardy, and the question of “is this worth it” remains . . . especially with the horrible Spring weather not making anything any easier. There are no do overs in the growing season and the weather is the single biggest opponent a farmer contends with. Now more than ever, it is important for food dollars to remain local in support of small farmers and the communities at large. Website: AmericanFamilyFarmerShow.com Social Media: @GoodDayNetworks

Feeding the world without ‘eating the earth'

By 2050, the global population is expected to reach about 10 billion people. That means we need to find a way to feed nearly 2 billion more mouths in the next 25 years. Industrial farming practices have already destroyed countless natural ecosystems, and experts say that expanding farmland even further would have devastating consequences for the planet. In Berkeley Talks episode 227, UC Berkeley Professor Timothy Bowles and journalist Michael Grunwald discuss the impact of our current agricultural methods and debate the ways we can ramp up food production without causing more harm to the environment. “Agriculture is eating the earth,” says Grunwald, author of the forthcoming book We Are Eating the Earth: The Race to Fix Our Food System and Save Our Climate. Farmland, he says, now covers two of every five acres on the planet, “and those are acres that used to be forest and wetlands and savannas that stored a lot of carbon and sheltered a lot of biodiversity.” In order to avoid further destruction, he contends, we must produce more food on land we already farm by improving the efficiency of our existing industrial systems.While Bowles agrees that expanding farmland isn't the answer, he counters that industrial agriculture isn't either; he argues that industrial farming is detrimental to the environment and human health and perpetuates social and economic inequality. Instead, he advocates for agroecology — sustainable farming that allows farmers to work with nature to create resilient and productive food systems. “It's already happening all over the world,” says Bowles, an associate professor in the Department of Environmental Science, Policy and Management at UC Berkeley and lead faculty director of the Berkeley Food Institute. “What hasn't been happening is the political will to make it the foundation of our food system.”“Coming back here to California, agroecology is when 1.6 million schoolchildren are eating lunches that are not taco beef sticks,” he continues, “but fruits and vegetables and whole grains that are supplied by California farms that are using climate-smart agricultural practices supported by state investments, and building on the successes of an organic agricultural industry that is currently [worth] $11 billion.”This conversation took place on April 17, 2025, and was sponsored by the Berkeley Food Institute.

Kennedy Jr. are working together for a healthier America and a focus on supporting local farmers, and the National Cattlemen's Beef Association's problems with the government over land. Next, Doug introduces us to Ryan McPherson, owner of Glidden Point Oyster Farms in Edgecomb, Maine. Ryan got his start in fisheries and looking for a way to stay on the water, so when the opportunity to take over the oyster farm (which was established in 1987) arose in 2015, Ryan went for it. Glidden Point Oysters are grown slowly, and in the nutrient-rich depths of the Damariscotta River, a world class growing environment. Their oysters are renowned for their heavy shell, and beautiful appearance. They start from seed and grow them in upwellers and floating bags on the surface of the river until they reach the appropriate size to be harvested.  Plus, all Glidden Point oysters are harvested by hand, and often by scuba diver. They touch their oysters every step of the way, and it's the care they take, whether it's grading seed, diving, or culling, that produces a premium oyster they're proud to share with others, and proud to call their own. When it comes to aquaculture, things move very quickly with a lot more dynamics to the process. You can learn more about Glidden Point Oyster Farms at GliddenPoint.com.

Senator Aric (Eric‑with‑an‑A) Nesbitt says Michigan's tumbling into the bottom‑ten club thanks to Governor Whitmer's spend‑and‑tax spree, busted roads, and a Green New “Scam” that carpets farmland with Chinese solar panels. He warns the state will lose 700 k people over the next generation unless it slams on the progressive brakes and embraces lower taxes, abundant energy, and business‑friendly rules. On the bright side, he touts wins brokered with President Trump—F‑15s for Selfridge, a fast‑tracked Line 5 tunnel, and stricter border security—as proof conservative governance delivers. Running for governor, Nesbitt pitches a back‑to‑basics playbook: fix roads without new taxes, block foreign land grabs, keep energy cheap, and make Michigan the place where people want to live, work, and build again.Quick‑hit takeawaysMichigan in the cellar: Whitmer's policies dragged the state to 43rd/44th in national rankings—broken roads, broken schools, ballooning spend, and a $9 billion surplus “printed away.”Population cliff: Stay the course and Michigan could bleed 700 k residents in 30 years—“poorer, dumber, with fewer opportunities.”Why he's running: Nesbitt frames the 2026 race as a fork in the road: status‑quo decline vs. a pro‑growth reset.Trump partnership wins: Selfridge lands F‑15s and hundreds of jobs; Line 5 tunnel fast‑tracked, securing propane for 400 k homes.Green New “Scam”: Dem energy law will industrialize 300 k farm/forest acres with subsidized Chinese solar panels—angering rural voters and handing the GOP a 2026 rallying cry.Farmland sovereignty: Pledges to block foreign (read: Chinese) land buys that threaten food security.Roads without tax hikes: Fix infrastructure by reprioritizing, not raising taxes.Make‑things‑in‑Michigan agenda: Lower taxes, faster permits, reliable cheap energy, right‑to‑work restored, “capital follows the path of least resistance.”Border & security brag: Cites Trump's 99.98 % drop in illegal crossings, vows to keep momentum.Get in touch: directs voters to NesbittForGovernor.com and social platforms for Q&A and events.

But imagine how it began ......In 1854 Jacob and Sarah Ebey were 61 and 58 years old respectively (more than twice the age of the average traveler) when they left Missouri and set out on the Oregon Trail. Traveling over 2,000 miles and across the rugged, forbidding Rocky Mountains they made their way to Whidbey Island, Washington. Why leave home and all they knew for this arduous journey in their late years? Because their son Isaac said that the farmland was far better than any in the Midwest making this new frontier home for the families.  You have to wonder about these settlers who were willing to leave the comfort of all they knew unaware of what awaited them on the other side except maybe this: that the lives they had led were not going to be the lives they would lead.  How did they forge new frontiers? I imagine that it took willingness in the face of uncertainty.  Like them, we're all challenged with forging new paths in our lives; but we can and we will as long as we remember to say “Yes! Despite the odds. Yes! Come what may.”  Question: What new frontier might you be willing to venture into?You're invited: “Come for the stories - stay for the magic!” Speaking of magic, I hope you'll subscribe, follow, share a 5-star rating and nice review on your social media or podcast channel of choice, and join us next time!

With little experience in gardening or conservation, she had a crazy idea to cultivate a small native meadow to provide an acre or two where wildlife could thrive, and she could explore with her poodle. Then she set foot on two hundred acres of old farmland atop a Virginia mountain and her dream became a reality.In BAD NATURALIST: One Woman's Ecological Education on a Wild Virginia Mountaintop (Timber Press | January 7, 2025), funded by the Maryland State Arts Council, author Paula Whyman explains how she cares for her mountain-sized ecological restoration challenge with a mixture of humility and humor.

They're joined by Becky Bradley, Executive Director of the Lehigh Valley Planning Commission, and Susan Lawless, a Supervisor in Hanover Township, Northampton County, to explore how warehouses became such a dominant force in our local economy, what the future holds, and how local governments can navigate the challenges that come with rapid industrial growth. If you want to stay informed and have a say in the future of development in the Lehigh Valley, there are ways to get involved: Attend Township and City Meetings – Local government meetings are where zoning and development decisions are made. Join a Planning Commission or Zoning Board – Many townships seek community members to help guide policy. Take a Planning Course – The Lehigh Valley Planning Commission offers courses through the Lehigh Valley Government Academy (LVGA) to educate residents and officials on zoning, development, and planning.

WDIY Lehigh Valley Health Network Wind Creek Event Center Michael Bernadyn of RE/MAX Real Estate Molly’s Irish Grille & Sports Pub Banko Beverage Company Episode Recap: The Lehigh Valley Warehouse Boom—Growth, Challenges, and the Future How Did Warehouses Take Over the Lehigh Valley? If you've driven through the Lehigh Valley recently, you've likely noticed a skyline of massive warehouse buildings appearing along major roadways. But why has this explosion in warehouse development happened, and what does it mean for the future of the region? According to Becky Bradley, Executive Director of the Lehigh Valley Planning Commission (LVPC), the warehouse boom is not a coincidence—it's the result of a perfect storm of economic conditions, geographic advantages, and shifting supply chains. Since 2015, over 48 million square feet of warehouse space has been approved across the region. The Lehigh Valley's proximity to major metro areas like New York, Philadelphia, and Washington, D.C. makes it a prime location for distribution centers. Hurricane Sandy (2012) was a turning point, causing supply chains to shift inland after flooding devastated coastal infrastructure, pushing logistics hubs further west. Pennsylvania's tax structure and zoning laws make it more attractive for industrial development than neighboring states like New Jersey, where regulations are stricter. “Our region is now competing with the Port of New York and New Jersey in terms of industrial footprint.” — Becky Bradley The question now is: What's next? Warehouses Bring Jobs—But at What Cost? The growth of the warehouse and logistics industry has created tens of thousands of jobs, making it one of the largest employment sectors in the Lehigh Valley. Over 40,000 people work in warehouse and trucking jobs in the region. This sector is now the second-largest employer, trailing only healthcare. The average warehouse lease lasts just seven years, meaning businesses frequently change, affecting job stability. On the surface, this seems like a positive economic boost. However, Susan Lawless, Supervisor of Hanover Township (Northampton County), warns that the benefits need to be weighed against the costs. Some key challenges include: Road and infrastructure damage: The influx of heavy trucks increases wear and tear on local roads, putting pressure on townships to cover repair costs. Traffic congestion: Residents in warehouse-heavy areas have seen major increases in truck traffic, impacting local commutes and safety. Municipal budget strain: While warehouses generate tax revenue, local governments must plan for long-term infrastructure maintenance, which is often more expensive than the revenue generated. “Some townships love the tax revenue, but they won't say it publicly.” — Becky Bradley Zoning, Farmland, and the Fight for Smart Development With warehouse developments expanding rapidly, many residents and officials are asking: How do we balance economic growth with preserving the Lehigh Valley's character? One major concern is farmland loss. The Lehigh Valley has a rich agricultural history, but as more farmland is sold for industrial development, that legacy is at risk. 10% of the region’s land is currently protected as preserved farmland. Both Lehigh and Northampton counties have farmland preservation programs, but funding is limited. Some municipalities are revising zoning laws to slow down warehouse growth and protect open space. For local governments like Hanover Township, the key is zoning and planning ahead. However, Pennsylvania's zoning laws limit how much control townships actually have. “If a local government has a use allowed in its zoning, you can't really deny it.” — Becky Bradley Susan Lawless emphasized that municipalities need to be proactive in revising ordinances if they want to guide development in a way that benefits residents. “Development doesn't happen in a vacuum. We have to think about how it fits into the fabric of our community.” — Susan Lawless The Future of Warehouses in the Lehigh Valley: What Comes Next? With the Lehigh Valley's industrial footprint now rivaling the Port of New York and New Jersey, the warehouse boom is far from over. But what does the future hold? Leases are short-term, meaning buildings could become vacant in a matter of years. More companies are looking at automation, which could impact job stability. Freight moving through the region is expected to grow from $60 billion to $100 billion per year by 2050. To navigate these changes, local officials, businesses, and residents need to work together to ensure sustainable growth. That means investing in infrastructure, improving zoning laws, and exploring ways to diversify the economy beyond warehousing. How You Can Get Involved in Local Planning If you want to stay informed and have a say in the future of development in the Lehigh Valley, there are ways to get involved: Attend Township and City Meetings – Local government meetings are where zoning and development decisions are made. Join a Planning Commission or Zoning Board – Many townships seek community members to help guide policy.
