What do Andrew Jackson, a lawyer, and a farmer have in common? This week, we hear a story about Andrew Jackson from a farmer whose family has farmed sugarcane in Louisiana since 1807. That same farmer's son-in-law left a life practicing law to make a career on the farm. John Gay is a 7th generation sugarcane farmer, and Patrick Frischhertz represents the 8th generation on the family farm. Also in this episode is Andy Brown, Neil Melancon, and Karl Wiggers from the Louisiana Farm Bureau Federation.
