More and more, the discussion surrounding our nation's food supply is focusing on the source of food products. Rightly so, consumers are taking an interest and asking "where does my food come from?"
While some groups have used this opportunity to scare consumers into thinking that food is produced in big corporate factories, the true story behind where your food comes from actually carries a lot less sensationalism.
The fact is 98% of the beef farms and ranches in this country are family-owned; many of which are located right here in Alabama.
In the first of what we hope becomes a regular series here on the Bama Beef blog, we'd like to highlight one such beef producer and member of the Alabama Cattlemen's Association. We hope you enjoy this snapshot of a real cattleman in Alabama and that it helps you answer the question, "where does my food come from?"
