Maino and the Mayor

Our friend Jake VandenPlas from DC Farm For Vets visits us in the studio, to not only share fresh sweet corn with the guys, but also talk about the REAL work on the farm. Yes, they are growing vegetables, raising beef, pork and chicken…but its a much deeper plan than that. The work on the farm really focuses on fighting veteran suicide. Then Mike Campbell, Founder and President of Team ONE MILE calls in to talk about the organization and the work it does. Team ONE MILE cycled over 100 miles a day from community to community across the state of Wisconsin. They had a total of 21 riders with the goal of highlighting veterans and future youth leaders. They also raised money for the Gold Star children of Camp Hometown Heroes.
