Across the country, consumers are increasingly
buying their produce, meat, eggs and dairy products from local farmers.
You can do the same. Local farmers
are aligned with your best interests and can establish a
direct, and directly beneficial, food partnership with you.
You will see the benefits when you buy from
farmers who use natural, sustainable methods:
- Your nutritional intake improves as you
and your family enjoy fresher, cleaner, better tasting food.
- You support the health of the environment
when you support local family farmers.
- You can help assure there is an ongoing
natural food supply when you buy from these producers.
CCI helps
connect you to family farmers
To help you connect directly with family farms, Iowa CCI has created
a directory of family farmers
across the state who sell directly
to consumers like you.
