Grateful for our time w. Bob Casey in DC discussing how Bowery Farming repurposed a former Brownfield site in Bethlehem #PA for our most advanced #verticalfarm to-date and why now is the time for Congress to help accelerate agricultural innovation in PA and around the country

Everyone in America should be supporting the expansion of SNAP. Food stamps are vital so all families can feed themselves with dignity. Listen to the full conversation with Senator Cory Booker on the latest episode of Longer Tables, anywhere you get your podcasts.

"As the recent #MAHA assessment report suggested, many U.S. consumers are looking to Europe for cleaner formulas. But we believe the U.S. can meet that demand here at home. It starts with reforming the system to support the science-forward innovation parents already want."
