With the passage of this new right, Anthony Sutton\u2019s Passamaquoddy mentor asked: What does this mean for tribal sustenance? As an example, these policies allow municipalities to manage local food businesses as a form of economic security, while the municipal distinction given to Wabanaki governments has had a negative impact economically to both tribal governments and the state of Maine. Furthermore, these policies support local food production within municipal boundaries, whereas many Wabanaki notions of food require movement that transcend places, ecosystems, and artificial boundaries.<\/p><p class=\"ColumnText\">\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"ColumnText\">This keynote will use a combination of personal stories, traditional knowledge systems, and histories to identify the distinctions between tribal sustenance and Maine\u2019s food sovereignty to amplify and empower the work Wabanaki food growers and fishers are doing within the Dawnland.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8448bc2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8448bc2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Photo courtesy of the University of Maine.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-d854a14\" data-id=\"d854a14\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-18af629 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"18af629\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Saturday<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-09f57aa elementor-position-top elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-box\" data-id=\"09f57aa\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-box-wrapper\"><figure class=\"elementor-image-box-img\"><a href=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dpopup%3Aclose%26settings%3DeyJkb19ub3Rfc2hvd19hZ2FpbiI6IiJ9\" tabindex=\"-1\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mofga.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/elementor\/thumbs\/Keynote_Saturday_Adam-Alexander-r9iy2b3tnj9l2c3qx4aql4dy6gla1mm1hjrv6s7hjc.jpg\" title=\"Keynote_Saturday_Adam Alexander\" alt=\"Headshot of Adam Alexander\" class=\"elementor-animation-float\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a><\/figure><div class=\"elementor-image-box-content\"><h3 class=\"elementor-image-box-title\"><a href=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dpopup%3Aclose%26settings%3DeyJkb19ub3Rfc2hvd19hZ2FpbiI6IiJ9\">Adam Alexander <\/a><\/h3><p class=\"elementor-image-box-description\">(aka The Seed Detective), Author, Grower, and Storyteller\n<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ace8481 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ace8481\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><b>\u201c<strong>The Accidental Seed Heroes \u2014 Creating a Food Future That Can Feed Us All<\/strong>\u201d<\/b><\/p><p class=\"ColumnText\">Adam Alexander is a writer, storyteller, and award-winning film and television producer.

Alexander is passionately committed to enriching the genetic diversity of the crops we grow that have been cherished and maintained by Indigenous farmers \u2014 whose knowledge and expertise we ignore at our peril \u2014 as well as a great diversity of growers and open-source breeders. These include passionate freelance breeders on a mission to increase diversity and resilience, championing agroecological approaches to feeding us all in a changing climate. He meets plant scientists who believe that collaboration, participatory breeding, and working with farmers developing and improving locally adapted crops offers a positive road to greater food security as well as better health and wellbeing.

Us All \u201d<\/strong><\/p><p>Americans have traditionally enjoyed lower grocery bills than many of our global counterparts, yet food insecurity and inflation have risen sharply in recent years, threatening to derail household budgets \u2014 even for those growing the food. With more than half of all Maine farms operating at a net loss, it is clear that the cost of production is outpacing the financial capacity of the consumer. The first food assistance program was created in 1939 as part of the federal response to the Dust Bowl crisis when the U.S. government recognized the need to move public dollars into the agricultural sector. With programs such as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) creating a measurable economic multiplier effect, why do our policymakers struggle to define the need for publicly funded agricultural support programs? Keynote speakers Jim Hightower, radio commentator, author, and former Texas Agriculture Commissioner, and Rhiannon Hampson, farmer and rural development specialist, will make the case for public funding for Maine\u2019s farms and food consumers. Joined by Sarah Alexander, executive director of MOFGA, the two will discuss where we\u2019re headed and what\u2019s needed to build a food system that works for everyone.<\/p><p>Jim Hightower is a national radio commentator, New York Times best-selling author, and twice-elected Texas Agriculture Commissioner who has spent four decades championing ordinary Americans against corporate and political elites. Known as &#8220;America&#8217;s most popular populist,&#8221; he broadcasts daily radio commentaries to over 150 stations, publishes the monthly newsletter &#8220;The Hightower Lowdown,&#8221; and delivers more than 100 speeches annually across the country. His seven books, including bestsellers like &#8220;Thieves In High Places&#8221; and &#8220;There&#8217;s Nothing In the Middle Of the Road But Yellow Stripes and Dead Armadillos,&#8221; combine serious political analysis with his trademark Texas humor. Hightower believes the true political divide is not left versus right but top versus bottom, advocating for the 80% of Americans he says have been left behind by Washington and Wall Street powers.<\/p><p>Rhiannon Hampson, alongside her husband Gregg Stiner and their family, runs Grace Pond Farm, a certified organic dairy and pastured livestock farm in Thomaston, Maine. Having spent decades in advocacy and public policy, Hampson has worked off-farm for Congresswoman Pingree and recently served the Biden-Harris Administration as the presidentially appointed Maine state director for USDA Rural Development. Now at Gulf of Maine Research Institute, Hampson continues to champion Maine\u2019s heritage industries and rural economic development.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-5768a3e elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"5768a3e\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-785a7c6\" data-id=\"785a7c6\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7eb1cb3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7eb1cb3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Photo courtesy of Hightower<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-fa0744a\" data-id=\"fa0744a\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-671fbb0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"671fbb0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Photo by Colleen Gleason.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Keynote Addresses Past Keynote Addresses Listen to the Keynote addresses from past years of the Common Ground Country Fair.
