Four congressmen from the US House Ag Committee made history by holding a Farm Bill Listening Session in Tennessee. It was the first ever meeting like that helds in Tennessee. Farmers from across the volunteer state got the opportunity to tell these congressmen their thoughts and concerns on the upcoming Farm Bill. Thomas Capps Tennessee voices heard on the Farm Bill. Hello and welcome to Tennessee Home And Farm Radio, I'm Thomas Capps. Congressman Glenn Thompson It's helping us, preparing us, equipping us to write a highly effective farm bill. Thomas Capps Four Congressmen from the US House Agriculture Committee are in Tennessee this week making history by participating in a farm bill listening session. The first ever in the Volunteer State. The two Congressmen from Tennessee on the US House Ag Committee, Congressman John rose and Scott DesJarlais were joined by Ag Committee Chairman Glenn Thompson of Pennsylvania and democratic freshman member Jonathan Jackson from Chicago. All four congressmen listened to Tennessee farmers concerns about the farm bill for three hours on Monday, which Congressman Thompson says is essential Congressman Glenn Thompson The voices that we heard from today from here in Tennessee. We're taking those voices back to Washington and incorporating all that great feedback, that input, recommendations, suggestions into our work on this farm bill. Thomas Capps Soybean farmer Casey Youngerman of Henderson County represented the Soybean Association during the listening session. Casey Youngerman I wanted them to understand how important trade was keeping the title one protected, if not increase the funding. We really am wanting to make sure that the Checkoff Program was not gutted or was not tampered with in any way. Thomas Capps Time is of the essence and passing a new farm bill, as many of the programs in the current Farm Bill expire at the end of September. And while Congressman Rose can't promise a farm bill will be passed by then, he assures they'll do everything they can to get one passed by the end of the year. Congressman John Rose We're gonna put some pressure on the Senate by getting it done on the House side and hopefully that will prod them along to getting the Senate work done. And it wouldn't be a complete disaster if we can't get it done by September 30, but we do need to get it done this year. Thomas Capps Now, if a farm bill is not passed by September, a temporary extension could be an option. But farmers here in Tennessee have made it clear to congressional leaders that a farm bill is important, not just for them, but for everyone who eats. For Tennessee Home and Farm Radio. I'm Thomas Capps.

Today, the farm primarily focuses on growing row crops such as strawberries, blackberries, and corn as well as fruit trees. Dan holds a Bachelor's degree in Horticulture with a special focus on Fruits and Vegetables from North Carolina State University. McConnell Farms is one of our generous donors of fresh-pressed cider that allows our students to learn hands-on how to ferment and develop great-tasting brandy and other adult beverages. Dan joins me for today's Booze Clues segment and discusses why life's too short to drink bad brandy. We discuss how consumers can change the flavor profile of various wines and brandies by adding a fruit juice ice cube to their beverage. Dan explains the “variety trials” at his farm and how they are creating new heirloom fruits for consumers. We also discuss why consumers want smaller apples than in previous years when he expects to see high-yield harvests from his fruit trees and the real reason why Johnny Appleseed started planting apple trees. This week on Consuming the Craft: ● Changing the flavor profile of adult beverages with fruit juice ice cubes.● Tasting “a winner” of the peach variety trials at McConnell Farms.● Distilled spirits with figs.● CBI's experiment with concentrating ginger.● Marrying apricots, peaches, and other fruits to create heirloom fruits.● Why consumers want smaller fruits.● When to expect high yields from fruit tree crops.
