Farm Aid interviewed Luciano Alvarado, a 29 year old North Carolina blueberry farmer. Luciano introduces himself and discusses some of the difficulties his family has faced in establishing their operation outside of Fayetteville. Luciano credits veteran farm advocate Benny Bunting of RAFI-USA, a long-time Farm Aid ally, for guiding him through a prolonged, dispiriting, but finally successful series of encounters with his local Farm Service Agency office in applying for a post-hurricane emergency loan. Lucianos Palomo Farms is still in business and is determined not only to survive, but to thrive.
