Recently there was an article titled, “Long road from farm to fork worsens food outbreaks“. It talked about the numerous levels and complexity of the current food chain for consumable produce and meats. The article was in response to the recent listeria outbreak from cantaloupes grown in Colorado fields. The challenge is the different middle-men, companies and organizations that are points in the process between field to your family table.

It causes me to ask the question again about knowing where your food is coming from now that reaches your table? We of course would love for you to think about Simpson Family Farms to be your source for pasture raised, authentic supplier for pork, chicken and beef.

Just tonight, I came across this little video of Willie Nelson singing the Coldplay song “The Scientist”. The video was produced by Chipotle in an effort to promote developing a more sustainable food system.
