Have you noticed the price of eggs? Who hasn’t! How do government actions and tariffs impact the livelihoods of farmers in Northeast Ohio and beyond? And what does that mean for consumers, especially as far as food safety is concerned? The public is invited to hear presentations on the significant changes in food and farm policy, Thursday, May 22, 7 p.m., Hobbs Hall, Kent. Hobbs Hall is a facility of the Unitarian Universalist Church of Kent. The League of Women Voters of Kent and partners Haymaker Farmers’ Market, the Ohio Farmers Union and the UU Church of Kent are sponsoring a free educational event to address the growing concerns regarding tariffs, food safety and farming. Professionals will discuss current farm and food policies and how these policies affect farmers, distributors and consumers. Read more about speakers Joe Logan (above), former president of the Ohio Famers Union, and Matt Herbruck (below) of Birdsong Farm in Portage County, here.
