Carolyn Harding with Julie Doran, hemp farmer and advocate for cannabis in Ohio. Julie was raised on a small farm in a big family. She’s passionate about cannabis, and her focus is to free this plant, and to keep cannabis a clean medicinal option for anyone who wishes to use it.
She manufactures an organic fertilizer formulated for cannabis production. She also farms 5 acres of hemp and grows the cbd that she uses in her cbd line, Ohio Friends and Family CBD Products.
She enjoys educating people on the benefits of cannabis, how to cultivate it, and what it’s uses and possibilities are.
You can find her at the statehouse educating legislators on the benefits and uses of cannabis, or hosting summits to educate farmers on how to cultivate a new crop. She loves connecting the dots for businesses, growers, patients, and legislators. She has submerged herself in the industry because of the way
the cannabis plant can change a life.
When Julie isn’t focused on the world of cannabis, she can be found outside in nature, gardening, showing alpacas, and hanging out with friends and family.

Carolyn Harding sharing this Sprouts episode from one of GrassRoot Ohio shows featuring Tish O’Dell on State Preemption Laws and Nature’s Rights.  It was an honor to work with Pacifica Radio to bring this to you.
Tish has been a Community Organizer for CELDF (Community Environmental Legal Defense Fund) since 2012 assisting residents to organize rights based initiatives in their communities in order to help them “make real” the just and sustainable communities they envision for the future. CELDF has assisted hundreds of communities across the country to develop “first in the nation” laws banning fracking, factory farming, sludging, water privatization, industrial scale energy development, and others addressing worker’s rights, homeless rights, immigrant rights, fair election issues and nature’s rights, including the first in the nation law recognizing the rights of a specific ecosystem, the Lake Erie Bill of Rights in 2019. 
Tish is a founding board member of the Ohio Community Rights Network (OHCRN), organizing and assisting county chapters to build a movement of community rights organizing throughout the state to culminate in constitutional change that will guarantee people’s rights to local self-governance and the rights of people and nature over corporations.
Tish co-founded the grass-roots organization MADION, Inc (Mothers Against Drilling In Our Neighborhoods) in her hometown of Broadview Heights, Ohio that successfully campaigned to adopt the first Home Rule Charter amendment in Ohio creating a Community Bill of Rights banning new gas drilling, fracking and injection wells in 2012.  Tish has also been featured in the documentary We the People 2.0, appeared on the Thom Hartmann Show and The Daily show and is one of the editors of the 2021 book, Death by Democracy:  Protecting Water and Life - Frontline stories from Ohioans fighting corporate and state power.

Carolyn Harding with Jaelle Terrell, a Ohioan trans writer and humorist who is currently living in Akron with her chosen family. Excerpts from her novel "The Tales of Victoria" can be found at www.statestreetnews.com.
On January 24, 2024, the Ohio Senate Voted to overrule Governor Mike DeWine’s Veto of HB68, which will, according to the Ohio Capital Journal, "block gender-affirming care for trans youth and prevent transgender athletes from playing women’s sports. The bill prohibits transgender youth from starting hormone therapy and puberty blockers…. and Gender-affirming care is supported by every major medical organization in the United States. Children’s hospitals across Ohio, the Ohio Children’s Hospital Association, and the Ohio Academy of Family Physicians all opposed HB 68. No Ohio children’s hospital performs gender-affirming surgery on patients under 18 currently."
You were there at the Senate Session with your adopted trans daughter and partner. We heard the myopic statements of State Sen. Kristina Roegner, R-Hudson, “There are men and there are women and there are boys and there are girls and they are different…Gender is not fluid. There is no such thing as a gender spectrum....”
And they passed HB 68, 24-8. It will go into affect, likely on April 23, 2024.
And here you are Jaelle.... talk about your experience that day.
Tell us your story.

Zerqa Abid, Democrat Candidate for US Congress, Ohio District 15

Carolyn Harding with Judge Terri Jamison, candidate for the Ohio Supreme Court.
Judge Terri Jamison began her work history in social work with the West Virginia Department of Welfare. She became a trailblazer when she was one of few women to join the United Mine Workers of America. She moved to Columbus, Ohio when mass layoffs shut the mines down.
As a single parent, she worked a variety of jobs before becoming a small business owner for more than 16 years. She became a nontraditional student at Columbus State Community College, ultimately graduating cum laude from Franklin University with a Bachelor of Science degree. She enrolled in Capital University Law School where she obtained her juris doctor degree.
As an attorney, she stood beside families in crisis, not corporations, representing them in various courts around Ohio and in U. S. District Court, in administrative hearings, and later being hired to preside over unemployment compensation
claims.
She comes to this campaign with more than a decade as a judge, having served on the Franklin County Court Domestic Relations and Juvenile Branch, and now on the Court of Appeals, Tenth District.
Judge Jamison has often been quoted, “when the law is not on your side, you deserve to be heard, treated with dignity and respect.”
Welcome to GrassRoot Ohio.
When everyday folk go to the polls, most voters have an idea of who the candidates are, what party they represent, and if they are engaged, they have some idea of the candidates’ platforms.
But even engaged voters, get a bit overwhelmed when it comes to judges. There are usually many judges on the ballot - and very few opportunities to hear what each candidate hopes to bring to the table.
Ohio early voting started Feb 21 and primary election day is March 19, and my hope is that each voter does their own due diligence for all the candidates on their ballot, and this November- All Ohioans will vote for the open seat on the Ohio Supreme Court.

Could This Be Something

Could This Be Something - Doug Gray & DJB Ft. Carolyn Harding (Doug's Club Joint)

Carolyn Harding with Elaine Robertson and Bryn Bird, concerned citizens working to protect their rural communities next to the mega Intel microchip fabrication industrial buildup in New Albany, Ohio.
Elaine Robertson is a founding member of the citizen's action group, Clean Air and Water for Alexandria and St. Albans township. She and about a dozen residents formed the group in 2023 in response to two proposed asphalt plants- one on each end of the town - only 1 mile apart. Due to their effort, in part, neither asphalt plant has permission to operate.
Some of the Clean Air and Water for Alexandria and St. Albans Township volunteers have begun working with the CHIPS Communities United with a goal to bring responsible and equitable implementation of the CHIPS Act. The alliance includes labor, environmental, social justice, civil rights, and community organizations representing millions of workers and community members nationwide.
Elaine currently teaches elementary music for Columbus City Schools
Bryn Bird hails from a dirt road outside of Granville, Ohio growing up on her family's produce farm. After an undergrad at Miami University, she finished her masters degree in public health from The George Washington University. Bryn spent her early career as an epidemiologist working at the Navy and Marine Corp Public Health Center before organizing at Rural Coalition and Rural Organizing. Bryn spearheaded the development of the Canal Market District and Enterprise Hub. Bryn was elected Granville Township Trustee in 2018 and re-elected in 2021. Her passion for just and equitable rural policymaking stems, not only from her own experiences as a family farmer, but the desire for all rural Americans to thrive. She serves on the Board of the Ohio Farmers Union, Buckeye Valley Family YMCA and Rural Organizing. She is co-owner of her family's farm supporting the marketing and direct sale of produce through local markets, CSA's and wholesale accounts. Bryn and her husband Brian are also the proud parents of three daughters 10, 8, and 5! Bryn is currently a candidate for Licking County Commissioner on the November 5th ballot.
It’s an election year and President Joe Biden (D), Ohio Senator Sherrod Brown (D) and Governor Mike DeWine (R) are All In with the Intel mega industrial build outs.
And according to a March 20, 2024 Reuters news article - “Intel is planning a $100-billion spending spree across four U.S. states to build and expand factories after securing $19.5 billion in federal grants and loans....
The centerpiece of Intel's five-year spending plan is turning empty fields near Columbus, Ohio, into what CEO Pat Gelsinger described to reporters on Tuesday as "the largest AI chip manufacturing site in the world", starting as soon as 2027.””
You both live in communities that comprise these “empty fields near columbus” - Tell us what’s going on in your communities, regarding Intel.
