Huxley College, Friend or Foe?
Many of you have asked the question: What’s a Huxley guy doing on the Farm Friends board?
Brad Smith, Dean of Huxley College of the Environment at WWU will give a short talk about why he serves on the board
and the relationship between farmers and environmentalists in this time of heated debate about the nature of our food system.
