Direct marketing during COVID-19

Farmers who direct market meat and produce have had to change their business plans as a result of the COVID-19 crisis.

Karl Shlagel of Shlagel Farms in Waldorf, Md., and Amanda Hand of MKONO Farm of Huntingtown, Md., talk about how they’re adjusting to COVID-19 and the struggles they have encountered along the way.
