Stoney Ridge Farm: No Subsidies, No Cheap Food

What happens here

After an introductory sequence, the speaker re-establishes his location at Stoney Ridge Farm, a 150-acre, first-generation farm in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in North Carolina. He proudly states that his farm has never received a single dime of free government farm subsidies, which are funded by taxpayer dollars. He then attributes the need for government subsidies to the demand for 'cheap food,' suggesting an underlying problem in the food system.

Goal: Establish the speaker's independence from government subsidies and identify 'cheap food' as a core problem.
