You may not live in rural America.
You may never set foot on a farm.
But you eat three times a day.
And that means what happens to American agriculture matters to you.
For decades, we’ve watched our food system become more consolidated, more centralized, and harder for small independent farms to survive in.
This isn’t just a farmer problem.
Who owns the land matters.
Who raises the animals matters.
Who controls our food supply matters.
I never planned on being a farmer. I certainly never planned on being this vocal about agriculture.
But the longer I do this, the more convinced I become that protecting independent American farms is about far more than saving a way of life.
It’s about protecting our ability to feed ourselves.
Know your farmer. Buy directly when you can. Keep your food dollars in your community.
Because the future of American agriculture will ultimately be decided by who we choose to support.
