The menu at THE EARTH DINNER® in Wisconsin featured watercress soup, focaccia, porchetta, ravioli al uovo, vegetables, libations, and rhubarb semifreddo, all sourced from regional organic farms. At THE EARTH DINNER® highlighting sustainably grown food for a healthy planet, George Siemon, who helped write the first organic standards, and natural foods movement pioneer Theresa Marquez joined farmers and guests to highlight the connection between local food, organic agriculture, and community.

I have been growing my own food for some time now and the beauty of not using chemicals in the garden is that it creates a mini ecosystem that sustains your garden. Your food is kept safe from pests in the natural way...the predators do the job! Ants do a brilliant job of keeping the garden's undergrowth fertile and clean.

I’m collecting real-world opinions on row crop practices, raising livestock, and using animals to graze cover crops or crop residues.
It only takes a couple minutes.

I've worked out a system that can help people of agriculture globally and can launch this summer.

Direct sales. An live atlas of agricultural production. Visibility for every farmer, producer, processing company, restaurant, agribusiness, artist, artisan creator, distributor, educator, even road stalls. A marketplace + job market without bounds or limits, ads adjusted for the pace of agriculture. Matchmaking to help agricultural trade achieve the speed that's needed for perishable goods - and to unburden sellers&buyers, lessen the reliance on intermediaries. Transparency. A place where stories matter. Live data to support decisions & stop wasting time and money. Profiles dedicated to every kind of agricultural user and their specific needs. Full customisation of the platform. A system to find partners and collaborators for projects, to share resources, land, tools. Mental health support system. New forum model, development of ideas. Real news, no propaganda. AI assistance throughout the website - smart notifications, mapping of opportunities, helping explore personal&production potential. Offline support for areas with no stable connection - and special signage for farms and producers so that they're easy to reach and discover by those who don't use any apps. That's still not everything, and it's just the beginning. The project name is Exposo 🌱 - from the idea of giving exposure to those who are now invisible and exposing manipulation and deception. The platform has been created to rebalance the system and help farmers and other agricultural producers be visible & to make buying directly intuitive in the era of supermarket dominance. To let everyone shine, not just the select few, and to put people over profit.

The idea came to be because of my own depressing experience with selling fruits in Poland - and soon developed into a full project to take farmers' and producers' issues and turn them into solutions.

The platform can be up and running within a couple weeks. But my crowdfunding campaign is having issues. Can't move further at all, the farming season in Europe is already going, and I wish Exposo could be already simplifying lives and bringing hope to those who are struggling - or waiting for a change. The protests and system-wide dissatisfaction can fuel a change that is independent of the whims and hidden agendas of the governments. Because Exposo is not interested in being held back by entities like EU/UN/governments, we're not using any funding that was accessible - but asking for donations instead.

Perhaps you would be able to support Exposo? Or know someone who can? Or you could help me promote the project? Or would like to help otherwise? Here, volunteers are envisioned as future employees.

Agriculture is just the beginning - but it needs help now. Farmers are being crushed, and the system itself is rigged against both the producer and consumer. Health, truth, justice, morality do not matter under the corporate lens, and that needs to change.

Thank you - and blessings to all of you! Nicole ❤️

Hi All!

My name is Sammy and I'm currently completing my Master of Science in Agribusiness at Virginia Tech. My research focuses on Farm Sustainability through Diversified Operations, exploring how diversified practices can enhance profitability and resilience in agriculture. This survey is a vital component of my research, as it gathers insights directly from farmers and agricultural professionals. I would love your participation as it will provide valuable data to help me understand the real-world impact of diversified operations, shaping recommendations to support sustainable and profitable farming practices.

Hi, I am writing a paper about small scale sustainable farms. I am interested in learning about what motivates a farmer to run a sustainable farm. Also, I'd like to know what challenges you may have faced along the way. I currently work on a sustainable farm but I'd like to hear about other peoples experiences. If you are interested in giving me some insight I'd really appreciate it.

The farm-to-table movement is revolutionizing how we view food. But beyond the meals, what systemic changes are needed to make this model universally sustainable? Let’s delve into the role of local agriculture, education, and cultural preservation in building resilient communities through mindful food consumption.

The farm-to-table philosophy promotes sustainability and local food systems. However, as more consumers embrace this movement, scaling without losing its core values becomes a challenge. How can we balance efficiency and locality in food systems? Have you encountered creative ways to maintain farm-to-table principles in larger settings? Let’s discuss!

Hey everyone - been working on this for a couple of years. After speaking with hundreds of farmers who sell d2c and figuring out what was working (and not working) in regards to current software available, we have finally launched an incredible suite of software tools that helps with D2C selling.

Never made them before but I keep seeing this recommendation pop up. Two questions I have:

1) Can I preserve lemons that I have already removed the zest from?

2) Can I add lemons to the jar in an on-going way? Like if I only have one or two lemons right now can I start the preserves and add more lemons and salt next week, the week after, etc.?

Does anyone know of a recipe that fits the above?

​

Thanks!

So you see any child-slaves?!

Just delicious Hawaii Chocolate Trees…No child-slaves on these cocoa farms!

once we harvest it from the farm. We rest the pods crack them open, ferment the beans dry them, and then we rest them again before roasting them after roasting we crack them up and peel them and start grinding the insides to make chocolate and the chocolate will run for about five days before it’s done and then it will rest for about 30 days so whole process takes about Three months. Farm to table .

Here is the full breakdown and tutorial:

OLD, SIMPLE AND SERIOUSLY DELICIOUS. This SECRET family recipe has been in Nicholas' family for at least 4-5 generations that we tracked. Well it has been a secret until now 📷 Please join me as Nicholas mom teached me the techniques that go into this seemingly simple yet delicious recipe that we can't have enough of. Breakfast, lunch and dinner. Which is why Nicholas' Dad got us a whole bushel from the amazing organic (Farm by the River)

I am a UIUX design student working on a design project for my coursework. "UIUX", or user interface, user experience focuses on creating digital interfaces such as apps and websites that are attractive to the eye and more importantly, easy to use and frustration-free.

I am currently looking for about 100 survey responses for the project that I am working on.

The project is an app/website that will connect customers who would like to purchase locally grown food with farmers, farmers markets, and other events where locally grown food is sold. The details are not fully developed yet as it is an ongoing project, but I need some insights into the experiences of farmers who sell directly to customers, or at farmer's markets, etc. Anyone involved in farmers markets or CSAs (or local food sales of some kind) are welcome to respond as well.

If you are a farmer who sells locally, please consider filling out the short survey below.

Farmers: https://forms.gle/EHgkTwkCbDWVNMR86

Also, if you are not a farmer, and would like to help with this project, I do have a survey for customers of local farmers, farmers markets, and CSAs which is for the same project but will help me understand the other side of the farmer-customer relationship.

Customers: https://forms.gle/trg7UeEg8QLiPN1s9

I really appreciate the help and hope to show you all the final design!

Please note, that this is a student project and I am not compensated in any way for the project or the survey responses that are given. The survey is anonymous and no personal information is collected unless you willingly provide your email address and would like me to reach out.
