No Farms No Food

It's summer time, and an abundance of fresh local food is available at your favorite farmers markets. But did you know every hour we're losing 125 acres of farm and ranch land? Spiking fuel prices and the ever-present threat of development are pressuring America’s farmers and ranchers.

Fortunately, farmers markets, Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) farms, food cooperatives, and even your local foodshed all have one thing in common: they all require healthy local farm and ranch land to be part of the local food solution. That's why supporting farmers markets and local farms is more important than ever!
