IMPORTANT INFORMATION
How is your Food Produced?
Are you
aware of factory farms and their impact on the animals, livestock,
environment and local business environment?
This site is dedicated to
how food is produced. See above Tabs for details on product categories.
Our society is showered
with images of happy animals living on farms where the cows graze in
lush green fields and the chickens have the run of the barnyard. This
vision of free-roaming animals living out their days in sunny fields is
very far from the reality. A majority of the animals that are raised
for food live miserable lives in intensive confinement in dark,
overcrowded facilities, commonly called "factory farms." source - Factory Farm Fact
