Welcome to Your "From Field to Fair®" Journey

Every year, America's farmers and ranchers work hard to feed, clothe and fuel the world. They take care of animals and the natural resources we have on earth, like land and water. In fact, most farmers and ranchers will tell you that they started working in agriculture because they love animals and the land. They want to care for them so that children like you can enjoy these great things in the future.

This is called "sustainability". If you break it down, it means "the ability to sustain" or "to last for a very long time". For example, a farmer wants to keep growing food for you and me for a very long time. They take care of the soil by making sure it does not blow away in the wind or wash away when it rains. They make sure the right nutrients (food for plants) are in the soil. They work with the soil so they can grow plants in the future! This is sustainability!
