Thanksgiving depends on farmers across the country working to ensure that crops are harvested, stored, and ready for the iconic meal. Join NRCS Chief Aubrey J.D. Bettencourt as she “Dishes the Dirt” on how the agency is helping countless producers like Crane Brothers Farm in Exeter, Maine cut down on their electricity bill while improving the long-term quality and quantity of their potato harvest—a critical step in ensuring that the classic mashed potatoes side dish makes it to the Thanksgiving table.
