The National Farmers Union is Canada’s national farm organization committed to family farms. Promoting agroecology and food sovereignty for 50+ years, the NFU does not waver in our vision for farmers, eaters, and the earth, embedded in social and economic justice in Canada and internationally. They are also unique among farm organizations in advocating against corporate control of Canada’s food system.
Mara Shaw is the NFU’s Executive Director and my guest today, on The Cookie Jar.
