USDA to Survey Organic Farmers

After learning through its standard Ag Census that there were more than 20,000 organic farms in the United States, the USDA has decided to do a specific study of their demographics. If you are an organic farmer, go to the USDA ag census site and fill out the questionaire to be sure you are represented.

If you not a grower yourself, but just want to keep in touch with what USDA learns about the modern organic farmer, stay tuned for the release of the results.

  • It's not too hard to see what's wrong with the old industrial food system that brought us cheap food at a huge cost to the health of the land, our rural communities and our families. But there is a new food system sprouting up within the shell of the old, a return to hands-on, healthy food and food communities. That is the subject of this blog.
