    The Hawkes Family

    Courtesy of the Corona Virus, the world has had an acute shift in perspective about our food system. We seem to be more aware of the important links in the chain that get our food conveniently to the grocery store. More then ever i've seen people thanking truck drivers and food producers. The Hawkes Family is both of those. Although this episode was recorded before Corona Virus started to impact our lives, it is really interesting to hear the perspective of a family that both grows your food and hauls it to you.
