Ep 252 | Some kids miss two weeks of school every fall — not for vacation, but to go harvest potatoes in Idaho. We call it hard work, but the internet calls it child labor. This week on Discover Ag, Natalie and Tara give their take on the viral reel, break down why the Non-GMO label is mostly just marketing, and deliver some bad news for fans of a popular drink — but don't worry too much, they found a backup plan for drinks this summer.
