21. Welcome To NAFDMA
    supporting family farms through farm direct marketing education, resources and fellowship  
    http://www.familyfarms.com/Public/Why/
    
    Extractions: These are all great reasons to support family farms. How about also the preservation of farmers Once upon a time, this great continent was a land of farmers by necessity and by desire. Farmers colonized the New World. They broke ground. The fed their families. They moved west (or north or south) and broke more ground. Through the centuries, they fed other families. Their numbers became fewer and yet they fed more and more people. Today, farmers represent less than 2 percent of the U.S. population…yet 100 percent of the population eats. Fewer and fewer people remember what it was like growing up on the farm or even visiting a grandparents’ or other relative’s farm. As life has become crazier, more and more people yearn for the country, for a big, juicy tomato warm off the vine, for the season’s first sweet strawberry fresh from the field, for a visit to a farm, where life is simpler than at home. Without farmers, we have no farmland preservation. We have no food security. Our quality of life declines. Forget locally grown food. Don’t even think about knowing the farmer who grew the fruits and vegetables you have no choice but to buy from the grocery store. Forget taste, quality and freshness.

    Extractions: Welcome to our small, family-based farm in the hilly, northeastern corner of Iowa. Our farm-land is organic, and our livestock is raised in the most natural way possible for us at this time. Along with our philosophy of working with nature, we employ a practice of diversification and rotation, which allows us to remain productive in years that prove detrimental to a certain aspect of our program. National organic standards regulations need major overhaul. Please read this action alert and respond promptly to the USDA. A list of the livestock we raise includes: If you would like more information about our products, or if you have a question, please Email us! Nature has taught us that life is fragile, that it depends on healthy soil, water and air, and that every decision we make contributes to that life or its destruction. While this is true for every person in our society, it is easier for us to see than most because we live so close to the earth. We see first-hand what happens when the soil and water are healthy, and we experience the trauma when they are not. We want our world to be in better condition for the next generation than when we first came to Northeast Iowa; starting with our farm, our family, and our community. So....

Jackie Dearing of Bloomington, Ill., sold all of her 50 dozen eggs at the local farmers market on Saturday, including carton after carton to new customers worried about a large and growing salmonella scare linked to millions of grocery store eggs.

    The vast majority of farms and ranches in the United States are family owned and operated. USDA classifies family farms as “any farm organized as a sole proprietorship  
    http://www.csrees.usda.gov/nea/ag_systems/in_focus/familyfarm_if_overview.html
    
    Extractions: You are here: Home Agricultural System / Family Farms Overview Family Farm Report The census makes the following useful distinctions among these family farms, based initially on their gross annual sales: Many people are surprised that farms are classified as small, large, and very large based on their annual sales rather than on their physical size. While a size-based measure seems intuitive, farm acreage can mean very different things in different places. An acre of non-irrigated land in a low rainfall area, such as southern Utah, is hard to compare to an acre of very fertile, high rainfall land in the Pelouse region of eastern Washington. Most of the U.S. domestic production of food and fiber comes from relatively few large operations. The 2007 Ag Census showed that large and very large family farms produced over 63 percent of the value of all products sold (though they accounted for less than 9 percent of all family farms,) while non-family farms produced approximately 21 percent, and the nearly 2 million small farms and ranches (sales under $250,000) produced approximately 15 percent. Operations with over $1 million in annual sales are particularly productive. A recent report from the Economic Research Service (ERS) (
