On this West Virginia Morning, one small-scale farmer in Warren County, Kentucky wants to bring ideas of land stewardship and community back into farming. Derek Parham with member station WKYU reports on Willie Houston’s passion for producing healthy food and nurturing healthy land.

Meanwhile, equal opportunity laws have battled discrimination in the United States for decades. But efforts to dismantle diversity, equity and inclusion programs have arisen in dozens of states, including West Virginia. For the newest episode of Us & Them, host Trey Kay spoke with folks about the issue, including Sen. Patricia Rucker, R-Jefferson.
