WHEN DID FOOD
GET SO COMPLICATED?
Buzzwords like local, sustainable and responsibly raised are part of everyday conversations
and greet us at the meat counter, the milk cooler, the cereal aisles and farmers markets.

But what do they really mean?
We’re Illinois farmers, and we – along with other
experts – want to share our perspectives and
provide you with accurate information to
make informed choices.
You’ll find we don’t all farm alike or have the
same answers to every question. What we do
have is a commitment to providing safe, healthy
food for every table. Yours and ours included.

Let’s talk at watchusgrow.org.
