Alex Avery is Dennis Avery's son. They work together directing the
Center for Global Food Issues, a project of the Hudson Institute.
The Averys, Joel Salatin and Andy Lee all live in the same vicinity of
the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. Anyone interested in sponsoring a
four man "tag-team" debate over agricultural practices and policies?
I've interviewed all of these fellows for broadcast programs on several
occasions, and would be happy to serve as moderator. Just a thought.
You might be interested in the following:
The Avery v. Salatin debate can now be found online at:
