Understanding Cost of Food in America with CommonGround
“‘The Balancing Act’ provides a great forum to connect with moms across the country and let them know that farmers just like me want to share the story behind how American food is grown and raised,” said Courtney.
Recipes From American Farms To Your Kitchen
Ohio farmer Kristin Reese shows off her cooking skills while teaching viewers about family farms in America. Reese also shares her favorite holiday recipes.
“I am often shocked that many people do not know 96 percent of the farms in America are family-owned and operated,” said Reese. “It is wonderful to be able to share facts like these with the moms who tune into national television programs like the ‘The Balancing Act.’”
Food Myths and GMOs
Iowa farmer Sara Ross leads the conversation about popular myths surrounding biotechnology, often referred to as GMOs.
“We are thrilled to work with ‘The Balancing Act’ to create television that will really dig deeper into some of the hottest food topics,” said Ross. “There is such a strong desire here to really delve into every aspect of American food, and, as farmers, we bring a unique perspective on issues like GMOs, organic food and the local food movement to an audience that is hungry to hear from women who share their experience and concerns, but also have first-hand knowledge on these subjects.”
Understanding How Farmers Raise Healthy Food for Our Families
Nebraska farmer and rancher Dawn Caldwell shares health news you can use regarding food safety. Caldwell breaks down food-safety myths and gives valuable tips to prepare meat and produce at home.
“People often forget to take the proper safety precautions with food once they get it home,” said Caldwell. “As a farmer dedicated to raising a healthy food supply, I want Americans to also pay attention to how they prepare the food they feed their families.”
