Today on Episode 4 of Cherry Picking with Alexia Benn, we dip our toes into the world of modern agriculture production.
Food is how we fuel our bodies to get us where we need to go and do what we need to do. However, humans are more disconnected now than ever before from the food we eat. What is the impact of the way we grow food, fund, and fuel our agricultural production on the climate? How much money is lost annually in Canada due to poor management of consumable goods? Who benefits from the way our food systems have been set up, and more importantly, who doesn't? Grab a snack, sit down, and enjoy today's episode. The answers might surprise you.
Cheers,
Alexia
