"Farr did finally get back to us regarding his time at FOOD for Lane County, saying, “My departure from FFLC had nothing to do with alcohol and any rumors to the contrary are simply not true.” Farr was convicted of drunk driving one night in 2006 while he was head of the nonprofit. His blood alcohol content was .32 percent, four times the legal limit. “I quit drinking alcohol completely years ago,” he tells us. “The case had a profound effect on my life and my family’s life,” and he’s now a vocal advocate against drunk driving. Good for him. But let’s give Handy four more years."
