Price Foundation","episode_count":591,"summary":"The Weston A. Price Foundation's Wise Traditions podcast is for those who seek optimal health grounded in traditional wisdom. We believe that vibrant health cannot be cultivated in a lab, engineered through modern technology or found by \"improving\" nature. On the contrary, \"Life in all its fullness is Mother Nature obeyed,\" as Dr. Weston A. Price observed. By learning from healthy societies of the past, we can rediscover how to live healthier lives today. The Foundation's podcast is an invitation to explore traditional food and healthways that support true vitality. Host and producer Kendall Nelson interviews leading experts on a wide range of topics—ranging from preparing traditional foods, nutrient-dense diets, organ meats and animal fats to grass-based farming, natural detoxification, the power of sunshine and mitigating EMFs. Each episode offers listeners practical insights and timeless wisdom to help them heal, grow and live more vibrant, fulfilling lives.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-13T20:21:13.578857+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/wise-traditions-581956"},"episode":{"title":"585: Food Freedom, The Farm Bill And The Future Of Farming With Judith McGeary","slug":"585-food-freedom-the-farm-bill-and-the-future-of-farming-with-judith-mcgeary","published_at":"2026-06-29T10:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/wise-traditions-581956/585-food-freedom-the-farm-bill-and-the-future-of-farming-with-judith-mcgeary","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/wise-traditions-581956","url":"https://www.westonaprice.org/podcast/food-freedom-the-farm-bill-and-the-future-of-farming-with-judith-mcgeary","audio_url":"https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/wisetraditions/Audio_-_FINAL_-_WT_585_Judith_McGeary.mp3?dest-id=323969","summary":"Judith McGeary, founder of the Farm and Ranch Freedom Alliance (FARFA), joins us to explain how one massive piece of legislation quietly shapes nearly every aspect of our food system—from the seeds farmers plant to the food that ends up on our plates. She breaks down the history of the Farm Bill, how it evolved from supporting soil conservation and family farms to favoring consolidation and industrial agriculture, and why consumers should pay attention. Judith also discusses the controversial effort to grant pesticide manufacturers liability protection, the challenges facing regenerative farmers, the loss of seed diversity, and the regulatory barriers that make it difficult for local food producers to thrive. Along the way, she offers practical solutions for rebuilding resilient local food systems and explains why meaningful change often begins with ordinary citizens making a phone call to their elected representatives. Whether you're concerned about food quality, farmer livelihoods, regenerative agriculture, or the future of America's food supply, this conversation offers an eye-opening look at the policies shaping our agricultural landscape—and what each of us can do to help create a healthier future.
