Ask Questions About How Food Is Grown And Raised


Food choices are important, right? Questions about how food is grown and raised and how farmers and ranchers provide consumers with a variety of choices can be answered at www.fooddialogues.com or USFRA’s Facebook page: www.facebook.com/USFarmersandRanchers"

Get their answers to the tough questions – How are farm animals treated? What are farm animals fed? What are genetically modified crops? How does farming impact our natural resources? And can this impact my food? www.fooddialogues.com/videos shows how food is grown and raised.

According to One2One Network, of which I am a member, here is some info about USFRA:

"America’s farmers and ranchers founded the U.S. Farmers & Ranchers Alliance (USFRA) to start and lead an honest dialogue about American agriculture. USFRA has set the table for conversations with Americans to answer their questions about food and food production.

USFRA connects farmers and ranchers with consumers as a way to provide information and insights as to how our food is grown and raised.

USFRA tells the stories of real farmers and ranchers and connects consumers with farmers and ranchers to answer questions.

Active dialogue on USFRA Facebook’s page provides insights for today’s consumers and highlights recent media activity around how food is grown and raised.

"VINTAGE LESSON PLANS ON DOMESTIC ANIMALS (PDF ebook)

My youngest son especially loves his farm animals. We love animals of all kinds. Plus I love old vintage books, and new books, and ebooks, well, you get the idea. Lol. Not to mention fun stuff to use with lessons. This resource would be great to find stuff for your unit on farming or domestic animals or -- well, a few different options.

Here's how Jime describes it: "Some subjects of study are timeless, and a vintage book about them is just as pertinent and helpful today as it was 100 years ago. Such is the book we feature today, a really sweet collection of read aloud lessons for younger students about a variety of domestic animals: cat, dog, cow, sheep, goat, horse, donkey, pig, hen and duck. Lots of great illustrations and activity ideas in each chapter too!
