American Family Farmer

Host and American Family Farmer Doug Stephan www.eastleighfarm.com begins with news from the worlds of Farming and Ranching. This week we learn that Delaware State Land Preservation funds are helping save Family Farms. Next, we meet Roian Atwood, Senior Director of Global Sustainable Busi-ness for Lee and Wrangler jeans. With eighteen years’ experience in footwear & apparel sustaina-bility, Roian has a track record of managing a diverse set of projects and leading teams into corporate sustainability. Wrangler® has taken a groundbreaking step in its sustainability efforts, working with local farmers to create a traceable, locally-sourced denim collection that honors land steward-ship and champions state pride. The Wrangler Rooted Collection™ is a limited, premium line made from 100 percent sustainable, local cotton. https://www.wrangler.com/collections/wrangler-rooted.html Each piece was grown, milled, cut and sewn in the United States, helping to ensure America’s denim heritage for future generations.
