Defend Our Health Featured on ‘What You’re Eating’ Podcast
Hosted by Jerusha Klemperer, in episode 16 titled “PFAS: The ‘Forever Chemicals’ in Your Food,” Food Print spoke to our campaign manager, Adam Nordell, to focus their attention on Maine to learn more about PFAS and how the chemicals have ended up in well water, on farms, in food, and ultimately in people’s bodies. Adam (alongside impacted farmer Fred Stone, Sarah Alexander and Caleb Goossen of the Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association, and policy expert Patty Lovera) delve into the impact that PFAS contamination has had on Songbird Farm.
Food Print is a project of the GRACE Community Foundation dedicated to research and education on food production practices. Through their work, the goal is to pull back the curtain on the impacts of industrial food production practices, explain the benefits of more sustainable approaches to food production and consumption, and help people raise their collective voices and take action to make real change in the food system.
