Hudson Case Closing Arguments Scheduled

November 7, 2012

Remember the Maryland farm that was being harassed by the WaterKeeper Alliance? The court has finally scheduled closing arguments in the case for November 30th. The judge will rule on the matter sometime in December (there was no jury in this case).

This has certainly been a long, drawn out affair for the family farm, and our thoughts and prayers go with them. If you want to support them financially or otherwise, please visit Save Farm Families.

A local newspaper believes some of the following issues will be decided in this case:

  • Does a poultry company (in this case Perdue Farms Inc.) share financial responsibility for nutrient management practices of a contract grower or for any pollution caused by those growers?
  • How tightly must pollution sources be controlled by a grower to avoid liability?
  • Is litigation a viable tool for environmental groups to employ in their pursuit of an agenda?
  • Can pollution in a stream be directly traced to a particular farm in such a precise way?
I guess we have to wait until December to decide….

Whoops! Looks like I missed #NationalAgricultureDay.We're on a family vacation in Florida this week. We hit SeaWorld, Universal Studios, Magic Kingdom, and Animal Kingdom. My highlight was spending some much-needed time with my favorite people. Headed home to Michigan soon. We're all hoping to bring back some warmer temperatures! 🤞 I hope you're having a good week! 💜

Oh, man. These lyrics are hitting me in all the fe Oh, man. These lyrics are hitting me in all the feels right now.

"When they pave all the dirt roads and John Deeres are dinosaurs

When the last back forty gets sold and young boys don't open doors

When you can't hunt a white tail and keep what you reel in

Well, I hope I'm in Heaven by then

Oh, I don't wanna go today, but I don't wanna live

Down here at a place that thinks that that place don't exist

If there comes a day this country's somewhere country don't fit in

Hell, I hope I'm in Heaven by then."

"Heaven By Then," Brantley Gilbert & Blake Shelton
