Sierra Club-Wisconsin Lunch & Learn

media release: Oct. 15 topic: Sonja Trom Eayrs is the author of Dodge County, Inc: Big Ag and the Undoing of Rural America.The book is a compelling, firsthand account of one family’s efforts to stand against corporate takeover of rural America. Trom Eayrs tracks the changes to farming over the years that ultimately gave rise to the disembodied corporate control of today’s food system. She argues that far from being an essential or inextricable part of American life, corporatism can and should be fought and curbed, not only for the sake of land, labor, and water but for democracy itself. Her book has been nominated as a finalist for the Minnesota book awards as well as the Midwest book awards. Join us for a virtual Lunch and Learn event to hear more!
