I interview LaDonna Redmond, a food activist and an inspirational speaker. I first met LaDonna at Shelburne Farms, while I was attending the Farm to Cafeteria conference. As the keynote speaker, LaDonna managed to bring humor and laughs into a serious talk about social justice and our food system.

My guest is Julie Grimm, an avid skier, yogi and horsewoman, wife, and working mother of two daughters based in Golden, Colo. Although she is not a food activist, chef, or farmer, I believe she has an experience and a product that can help many of my listeners, so I am welcoming her onto my show. After undergoing treatment for a brain tumor, then breast cancer, Julie used a holistic healing philosophy to design the Ready for Recovery Cancer Treatment Planner, to help patients and their families navigate through the chaos of treatment and recovery with the support, comfort and insight she wished she had been given. The planner is beautiful, and having personally witnessed so many people going through illness, I believe this book will be helpful, and would be a wonderful gift to anyone going through a life altering disease. I hope you can join us!

Guest: Ann Cooper who will be one of our keynote speakers at The Small Farm Summit this Saturday! Chef Ann Cooper is a celebrated author, chef, educator, and enduring advocate for better food for all children. In a nation where children are born with shorter estimated life expectancies than their parents because of diet-related illness, Ann is a relentless voice of reform by focusing on the links between food, family, farming and children's health and wellness. I know so many of you are concerned with the school lunches being fed to your children, and Ann is a person that is trying to change the system. Please listen in, and come hear her speak at the Small Farm Summit!
