On this episode of Stateside, we learned how MSU is helping Michigan farmers deal with climate change and sudden weather changes. Then, we heard details of a new report on housing problems across Michigan. After that, we went up north to hear how there's a growing interest in native plants. We closed the show with a history lesson on gerrymandering and how Michigan progressed past it.
