Lynlee Thorne
What happens when rural Americans from both political parties feel abandoned by Washington? Host Amy Drewry speaks with farmer and rural preservationist Lynlee Thorne to explore how both democratic and republican farmers are working together in their shared communities to save small and independent farming operations. Lynlee is a Farmer and staff member of Rural Groundgame and lives in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley on a small farm with her two young children and a menagerie of animals. Raised in a log cabin in rural Virginia, Lynlee lived in Vietnam for five years, exploring agriculture and finding her voice as an advocate for rural preservation. She has served as campaign staff for multiple local and statewide campaigns over the last five years. Both farming and being a rural Democrat require a long-term commitment to hard work, perseverance, and the cultivation of resilient communities, which Lynlee brings to all her work.
