Take Action to Ensure Healthy Food for You and Your Family

Message from Farm Aid President, Willie Nelson

Everyone needs to eat. Most people prefer to eat food that is good for them. But how do you know what is "good" and what isn't?

When you go to the grocery store, it looks like you have a lot of choices. However, the most important food choice you can make is to buy organic and family farm-identified food that ensures that family farmers will continue to offer us a choice of the food we want.

Right now, we still have a choice about the food we eat – a choice between food that is grown and raised locally by family farmers or food that is produced on factory farms. But this choice is disappearing each day as local family farms – the producers of fresh, healthy food – are displaced by giant food factories.

We at Farm Aid invite you to read through the links on the right and become acquainted with these facts. I hope you will join us in taking action today to save our family farms and help protect our choice for healthy, fresh, family farm food.

You can get started right now by getting to know your food a little better.
