A Talk with Gene Baur, Founder of Farm Sanctuary
Join as we welcome Gene Baur to AWLA!
Gene Baur has been hailed as “the conscience of the food movement” by Time magazine. Since the mid-1980s, he has traveled extensively, campaigning to raise awareness about the abuses of industrialized factory farming and our system of cheap food production.
