If you are looking for last minute gift ideas, the U.S. Farming and Ranching Foundation may have the answer.

The foundation is a nonprofit organization associated with the U.S. Farmers and Ranchers Alliance (USFRA) with the mission of supporting sustainability and consumer education in American culture. And it is the way that individuals can donate to support that cause by making a simple donation or by buying an e-cookbook to contribute.

“Recipes from the Farm and Ranch” is an e-cookbook featuring 40 recipes from USFRA affiliates and industry partners like Good Ole Country Dressing from Texas Farm Bureau, Midwest Pork Tenderloin from Iowa Pork Producers Association, and Best Breakfast Banana Bread from the Maryland Grain Producers Utilization Board. The cookbook is only $9.99 from Blurb.com, and can be downloaded immediately for viewing on Amazon Kindle Fire, Apple iPad, Android devices, and Mac or PC computers.

USFRA CEO Randy Krotz talks about how the cookbook was developed and how the foundation helps support the mission of the alliance. Interview with USFRA CEO Randy Krotz
