Let’s remember… everything goes somewhere. 

In episode 2 of Peak & Plunge, we talk to special guests Seth Watkins and Mia Glover about how inland agriculture, our food systems, climate, and the oceans all relate. Seth is the owner of Pinhook Farm, where he raises beef cattle, hair sheep, chickens, bees… and where he challenges agricultural convention daily. He sees the connections between what he does on the farm and the oceans of the world - and strives to steward and bolster those connections instead of conquering and degrading them. 

Can where you buy food make the difference between clean beaches and a lot of dead fish? 
Listen and find out!
