#5 “Farm 2 Table Women of the Ento Nation”
On this edition of the Ento Nation podcast with The Cricket Man: “Farm 2 Table Women of the Ento Nation”. We visit with two power women of the Ento Industry. We chat with Wendy Lu McGill, CEO & Founder of Rocky Mountain Micro Ranch where they farm crickets and mealworms. Wendy Lu is just plain everywhere when it comes to the Ento Industry, and we sat down with her for a very interesting chat. They are bug farming a mile high in the sky!
We also have a very interesting conversation with Aly Moore, who is the driving force behind Bugible at EatBugsEvents.com. Aly holds events around the country that introduce people to the benefits of eating bugs, to our bodies and to our environment, via wine pairings, Ento-culinary samplings, and other fun things. At some of these events, people actually get to make their own delicious Ento dishes!
We’ll also invite Aly into the Cricketlicious Café to be our Guest Chef this week, and ask her to show us how to make Tomato Hopper-Poppers!
And on “As the Crickets Chirp” Chip has partial amnesia, and Dr. Wut gives Ashley disturbing news.
