What if One Farm Raised (Almost) Everything You Ate? | Civil Eats

Mike Kwasniewski started the Charm Farm’s whole-diet CSA in Beverly, West Virginia for a slightly different reason: born and raised in West Virginia, he wanted to find a viable way of doing sustainable farming in a less-affluent rural economy.“I didn’t have that urban market where I could get a premium, so if I could supply more to fewer clients, and if I could structure the farm in a way that it could do all of that,” he says. “Then I’d be better off by focusing on serving the local population instead of shipping [my food] off to the closest metro area.”Kwasniewski describes his whole-diet CSA as a “one-farm local food economy,” and he sees the business model as one that would work for other folks in places without a strong base of farmers’ markets and veggie CSAs.

US Secretary of State John Kerry said the Obama administration was still evaluating the Russian proposal.”The White House, the Defense Department and State Department are discussing next steps in order to determine the best way forward,” he said.

Census Data Show the Value of the Safety Net | National Women’s Law Center

Both the official poverty measure and the Supplemental Poverty Measure show there is still much more work to be done. As poverty rates remain high, especially for single mothers, women and children of color, elderly single women, and women with disabilities safety net programs continue to be essential. Programs like SNAP, Social Security, and tax credits for low-income families all help lift women and their children out of poverty and must be protected. However, if Congress doesn’t act to end the sequester, many already under-funded programs will face further cuts. Yesterday’s Census data confirm that investing in programs that help low-income families and children works, but that these programs need to be strengthened, not cut, as we continue to work to ensure that everyone has a way out of poverty.
