Want to know where your food comes from? Sure you do. Here’s a resource I just found out about – Dinner Starts Here. This is an effort by some young Canadian farmers who are using social media to share their stories about the food they produce. Great idea!
Through this website you’ll meet a group of young farmers from Ontario, Canada who are passionate about their chosen careers in agriculture, their livestock and their crops.
Each and every one of them feels a strong commitment to this way of life and wouldn’t trade it for anything.
In their blogs, you’ll learn about their day to day lives and how they’re producing everything from berries to beef, milk and eggs to wheat, soybeans, potatoes and maple syrup.
Think about them the next time you sit down to dinner. After all, to know your farmers is to know your food.
Dairy farmer and social media advocate, Andrew Campbell, gets credit for the project. He has a number of sponsor helping that include Dairy Farmers of Canada, Gay Lea Foods Co-operative, Ontario Sheep Marketing Agency, Grayridge Egg Farms and Farm & Food Care.
You can follow along on the blog, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram and YouTube.
Thanks go to Food and Farming Canada for the heads up!
