If Iowa had a group chat, this would be it.
Hosted by Julie Gammack, this Substack blends independent journalism, lively opinion, and unexpected voices from across the state. Think potluck, but with more insight and fewer Crock-Pots.
Julie knows about as much about Iowa as anyone. A gifted journalist. A promoter of journalism. A promoter of thought. I grew up listening to Julie on the radio as my father was an avid listener. Her wisdom should be appreciated.
Denise O'Brien and Larry Harris, unique individuals who chose to remain in their place of birth to be organic farmers. The Harris/O'Brien partnership has lived by the philosophy that "the personal is political", a feminist movement phrase from the 1970s.
Denise provides a wealth of information and provides a window into her passion for sustainable agriculture/farming. She is also a staunch supporter of clean water! I value her insights!
