Common Sense Matters the Podcast

Food Insecurity in Rural Tennessee

Sandra Rice Season 1 Episode 9

My guest today is Sarah Edmonds, the director of the Community Action Committee's food pantry in Sewanee, Tennessee. Several unique opportunities with the students and food services of the University of the South, a church, and a farmer's cooperative provide a variety of healthy food options to those in need. There are increasing barriers though from the state and Federal Governments. This is part 2 of the discussion regarding massive cuts to the Medicaid and SNAP programs proposed by the America (not Americans) First agenda.
