Rural Advancement Radio (RAR) is a project of the Rural Advancement Foundation International, based in Pittsboro, North Carolina.
We feature an exciting mix of stories, podcasts, and stand-alone audio documentaries on the changing face of food and agriculture in the US. We talk to farmers, cover relevant news and events, and interview everyone from chefs to ranchers to ag experts to get to the bottom of a dynamic and complex food system.
