As much as locally- and regionally-grown food is celebrated in the Pacific Northwest, the reality is that fewer and fewer kinds of crops are being grown here.

LaDon Linde, Yakima County Commissioner and former dairy farmer, joins Dillon to explain why a federal judge's approval of the EPA's request for an emergency order against the dairies doesn't make sense.…
 
A coalition of regional leaders including farmers is calling on the federal government to withdraw its plan for new environmental reviews of the Columbia and Snake River dams.

Many sectors of the Washington farming community are struggling with soaring costs, flatlining returns, and suffocating regulations -- including tree fruit growers.

The portion of the money spent on the average American Thanksgiving dinner that actually makes it back to the farmers who grew the food is shockingly small.

Family Farming in Washington state is in crisis, and at Save Family Farming, we're trying to sound the alarm to help protect a future for family farming here.

Puget Sound's Southern Resident Killer Whales for years have been struggling to survive, and it's long been assumed that a lack of the Chinook salmon the whales eat is to blame. That's added even more pressure to recovery efforts for endangered Chinook salmon, which often result in costs and restrictions for farming, ostensibly to restore fish habitat. But a new study is upending that assumption, and Dr. Andrew Trites, one of the researchers behind the report, joins Dillon with details on why a lack of salmon may not be the problem after all for the endangered orcas.…

Dan Gerawan, former major California fruit farmer, joins Dillon to share the truth about UFW and how it has been treating farmworkers and farms in the Golden State.…
