Family Farms
There are almost two million farms in the USA. About 80% of those are small farms, and a large percentage are family owned. More and more of these farmers are now selling their products directly to the public. They do this via CSA programs Farmers' Markets Food Coops , u-picks, farm stands, and other direct marketing channels. Would you like to support your local farmer? Use our map to find a small farm near you! Large scale chemical agriculture is poisoning our soils and our water, and weakening our communities. By buying direct from a family farm you can help put a stop to this unfortunate trend. By buying organic produce from your local farmer, you are working to maintain a healthy environment, a vibrant community, and a strong and sustainable local economy for you and your kids to thrive in.

    Table of Contents Resources for Agriculture farms of the future by Senator Byron Dorgan
    There is a way to save family-based agriculture in America. It would be good economically, good for the environment, good in just about every way except for those who want to turn our agriculture into Monsanto-In-The-Fields. Harry Truman proposed the answer over 50 years ago. Put simply, it is to enact a farm program that focuses farm support on family-scale agriculture and let the others fend for themselves.
    This is social product, and family-based agriculture is a prolific source of it. Study after study has documented this. The most famous was that of Walter Goldschmidt of the University of California, who compared two California farm communities in the 1940s. One included mainly small and medium-sized family farms; the other, large-scale producers. The localities were similar in other respects.

    Lentils are protein rich. They lack only one protein, methionine. Adding grains, eggs, nuts, seeds, meat, dairy products, or eggs will provide a complete protein. The lentil is a cousin of the bean, and both are a part of the legume family. All legumes are seeds that grow within pods. Lentils are shaped like a lens. In fact, lens is the Latin word for lentil.

    Kevin Graff John Slater plants soybeans at his field just north of Interstate 70. Slater was attempting to beat the rain in getting some work done on his farm in the Hebron area.
    Kevin Graff John Slater of the Hebron area, shows off soybeans that he is planting in his fields.
    HEBRON John Slater's family has farmed in Licking County since his grandfather moved here from Meigs County around the turn of the 20th century. He and his brother, Mark, with help from his father, John, and his sisters, farm corn, soybeans and wheat on about 3,000 acres near Hebron. Their farm is much larger than when his family first started, Slater said. In his grandfather's day, "he could stand in the barnyard and see all the land he was farming," he said. Today, about "Nine-tenths of what we farm you can't see. It's miles away."

    Old-Time Hogs Raised the Old-Time Way
    The Duroc is the only true American breed of swine. They originated approximately 1890 in New Jersey and Kentucky. The original Duroc was the fastest growing, most rugged hog in the world. They were well adapted to simple outside production. In 1973, Henry and Jo Ann Fudge began capturing the oldest bloodline Durocs in America. Since that time, these hogs have been selected for the characteristics of the classic Duroc. These animals will produce more lean pork faster with fewer problems than any other type of swine. In addition, they can be raised without all the antibiotics and drugs common to the swine industry
