Episode 126 - Shuswap FRIES Society

This week Warren's guests are Jade and Isabelle Shamen, Quoc Nguyen and Amelia Jensen, all members of the recently formed FRIES Society. This new organization in the Shuswap is dedicated to making available the equipment and infrastructure that local food growers need to establish their farms and help to rebuild our local food system. FRIES encourages using regenerative farming methods to protect our water, to rebuild our soil and to provide the local community with nutritionally dense foods. The group is coordinating a food equipment cooperative including farm implements, transport equipment and food processing equipment such as a grain mill. In addition the team is developing facilities for local food storage.
