“Our main objective with this tour is to offer genuine support and provide a platform for the often-underrepresented farming communities,” says Trent Loos, Co-Host of “Across the Pond” on BEK TV. “By facilitating dialogues on challenges and potential solutions, farmers can begin to regain control and chart a promising path forward in their endeavors.”

“We are incredibly excited to embark on this tour,” says Andrew Henderson, Co-Host of “Across the Pond”. Our shows have always been about fostering understanding and bridging gaps. This tour takes that mission on the road, allowing us to connect directly without American viewers and hear their perspectives first-hand.”

Those not able to attend in person will be able to listen to each tour stop on Rural Route Radio the following day at 4:30 p.m. CT. Rural Route Radio can be found on several streaming networks, including Spotify.
