Description

This week, one hundred Cabot Creamery dairy farmers descend upon Metro New York as part of their second ever Farmers’ Gratitude Tour. Among them is Jenni Tilton-Flood of Flood Brothers Farm in Clinton, Maine. She called into the Heritage Radio Network studio in between delivering “random acts of cheddar” to discuss Cabot’s cooperative structure and what it means for its 1,200 farmer-owners spread across New England and upstate New York. As a farmer, we really take pride in the fact that our hard work helps to feed our neighbors, and really does help feed the world. [4:00] – Jenni Tilton-Flood andnbsp;
