I had an amazing day yesterday at the IL Farm Bureau GRIT team meeting for Livestock and Dairy. I was pleased at the discussions that we had and how we planned to move forward with them. One of the primary issues we decided needed to be addressed is the issue of promoting our industry! If we don't do it, someone will. Naturally this led us into a discussion about the IL Farm Families project and the Farm Moms blog.
Please check out the website at www.watchusgrow.org I think some of the Farm Mom's stories can illustrate how their minds were changed regarding how farmers really treat their animals, and the differences between a "family" farm and an industrial farm.
