1.3 Community Supported Adaptation (featuring Amber Lambke)
Why has the grain supply chain fared pretty well with COVID-19? This episode asks questions about resiliency at a time when flour is in high demand and draft beer… really isn’t. A look at why the summer of 2020 might be a very strong season for farmer’s markets, but a worrying time for growers. Plus, Amber Lambke of Maine Grains shares what it’s like to run a mill when more people than ever are baking at home.

1.2 Whole Grains (featuring Matt DuBois)
What’s the big deal with regional grains anyway? This episode looks at what Maine’s bakers, brewers, millers, maltsters, and growers think about grains these days, and how it all connects back to Wonder Bread and Budweiser. Somali growers at Liberation Farms give us food for thought. Plus, baker Matt DuBois (from The Bankery in Skowhegan) talks about storytelling and selling bread in central Maine.
