Learning About the Business of Food

by Jodi on January 20, 2010

A few months ago, I attended a mom blogger event  sponsored by Stonyfield Farms, where I heard Gary Hirshberg, founder and CE-Yo of Stonyfield, talk about the importance of organics.  Gary was featured on the documentary Food Inc, and when the DVD was released, Stonyfield sent me a copy of my own.

I already talked about how inspired I felt after watching Gary speak, but the DVD inspired me even more.  While I know this really does tell only one side of the story, I think it’s important that every single person understand where their food comes from.  After all, food is what fuels your body, and eating the wrong foods can lead to all kinds of serious health problems.

So, what have I changed?  Well, my family will be participating in a farm community supported agriculture program starting this spring.  This will ensure our family eats hormone and chemical free meats that are raised in an open, and grass fed environment.

Regardless of your food opinions, it’s worth checking out Food Inc to learn more!  You can find Food, Inc. at Amazon.com. Learning About the Business of Food

Disclosure: I received this Food Inc DVD at no cost, and this post includes affiliate links.
