RELEASE: New series of short films and blog posts profile young, innovative grain farmers

America’s increasing demand for organic and sustainably grown grains coincides with a shortage of young farmers

HUDSON, NY — The National Young Farmers Coalition and King Arthur Flour present a new blog and film series profiling three pioneering young grain farmers. While all farmers face challenges, the high start-up costs associated with grain farming can make it an especially difficult field to enter for new and young farmers. With a focus on small-scale and sustainable grain producers, the series chronicles the journey of three innovative farmers who are cutting their own paths in American agriculture.
