Host and American Family Farmer, Doug Stephan www.eastleighfarm.com begins with news that our food security in America is at risk, due to seed manufactures control of Washington DC. Next, we meet Mark McBrine. Mark is the Farm to Table Food Service Manager at Mountain View Correctional Facility in Charleston, Maine. He oversees 2 kitchens and dining facilities, as well as, 7.5 acres of intensive vegetable production and a 7-acre orchard, featuring 21 varieties of apples and other fruit, as well as the food waste composting project. The food grown by the offenders is incorporated into the facility menu, sold to other facilities and donated to local food cupboards and pantries. He also started a bakery program, where five inmate apprentices bake 100% of all bread and bakery products used to feed 1,300 - 1,500 meals a day. Finally, Farmer Doug wonders why we allow so much food to be wasted daily, when so many are hungry in this country.
