Peter Kindel shares his cheese journey on today's Cutting the Curd with Diane Stemple. Hear how Peter got his start in the cheese world, and how his travels in France and England changed his perspective on cheesemaking entirely. Peter talks about his experiences working with Neal's Yard Dairy and helping develop a cheese called Ogleshield. Why did Peter decide to get involved with the agricultural side of cheesemaking? Peter speaks to the risks of dealing with raw milk, and why the market over-regulates raw milk distribution. This episode has been sponsored by Fairway Market.
"When I was trying to source so many great cheeses from Europe, I realized that we needed to make cheese. And we need to create regional agricultural economies based on that product." [14:25]

This week on The Farm Report, Erin Fairbanks is talking with Mircha King of the Federation of Southern Cooperatives about the Pigford case- a class action lawsuit alleging racial discrimination on the part of the USDA concerning the distribution of loans and credits. Tune in to hear Mircha and Erin discuss the roots of the Federation of Southern Cooperatives in the Civil Rights Movement, the history and intricacies of the Pigford case, and the changes that black farmers see twenty years after the case. To learn more about the Pigford case, visit BlackFarmerCase.com. This episode has been brought to you by Fairway Market.
"What these lawsuits had asserted that the United States Department of Agriculture had systematically discriminated against African American farmers on the basis of race, which violates the 5th Amendment."
"Before Reagan left office, one of the things that he did was terminate the office of civil rights for the U.S.D.A... So for years there were stacks of boxes and boxes with claims of discrimination that no one even touched."
"We have all of these discrimination claims- we have black farmers, Native American farmers, women farmers, Hispanic farmers- and he [Tom Vilsack, Secretary of Agriculture] made a personal commitment to settle these claims."

Celebrate MLK Day on Hot Grease this week, as host Nicole Taylor takes listeners through some recent food headlines and then shifts the focus to the man we honor today, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.. Hear from Dr. Frederick Douglass Opie, who compares social media and revolutions of today to those of the civil rights era. This program was sponsored by S. Wallace Edwards & Sons.
"I totally think Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. would be a vegetarian. He was always willing to try something for the cause. He would be speaking out against GMO's and for farmers rights, no question."
