We're continuing our coverage on GMO's in the food supply with Patty Lovera, Assistant Director of Food & Water Watch. Food & Water Watch is an organization that works to ensure the food, water and fish we consume is safe, accessible and sustainably produced. Tune in to this special program as Leah Eden chats with Patty about genetically modified foods, specifically the AquAdvantage salmon, a genetically modified Atlantic salmon developed by AquaBounty Technologies. Find out about the risks, concerns and proposed "benefits" of the engineered salmon. How serious are the dangers we face in the wake of new biotechnology being introduced into our foods? Learn more about the ever-growing world of GMO's on an eye opening program. This was sponsored by Cain Vineyard & Winery.

Anne Saxelby is back on Cutting the Curd! Though broadcasting at a brand new time (Friday's at 4:00pm), it's same cheesy show! This week's guest is Homa Dashtaki of The White Moustache, a father/daughter business that produces yogurt made by local milk from the Brougiere Farm Fresh Dairy. They use only whole milk and a yogurt base, taken from a previous batch of yogurt which makes really thick all natural creamy yogurt. Hear about some of the challenges they face as a small dairy producer in terms of regulations and permits and discover why their yogurt-making process ensures that the final product is as natural and delicious as possible! This program was sponsored by Whole Foods Market.
