In this episode of The Farmlink Podcast, we sit down with four members of The Farmlink Project's core operations team- the people responsible for locating, rescuing, and distributing the food that we prevent from going to waste on farms. We'll hear about the ins-and-outs of their responsibilities, as well as how they manage to balance their incredibly impactful (and sometimes hilarious) work with their busy college lives. We'll also be speaking with Farmlink's Chief Procurement Officer, Luis Yepiz, whose wealth of knowledge gained from decades of working in the American food system will take us through the large-scale problems that we face at Farmlink. He'll also discuss his own journey to becoming part of our project, as well as his hopes for creating an equitable, community-focused nationwide food system in the United States.
