Sleeves rolled up, muck boots on, joined in purpose across the miles… I feel fortunate every day to be surrounded by people building a better future.
Family farmers and ranchers deserve a fair price for their products; fair access to markets; and a fair deal for their businesses, their families, and their communities. Join us as we fight for #FairnessforFarmers youtu.be/qPmCqDNrp2I #NFU2022
Ope! That’s us! There’s nothing quite as satisfying as standing up & getting loud to protect your community. We’re honored to be able to #getloud about the issues impacting family farmers & “the little guys” in our food system. There’s hope if we work together! #pulltogether
Exciting news! Today WFU released our new video "Get Loud: The Fight for the Soul of Agriculture" featuring WI farmers and @AustinFrerick. Check it out at bit.ly/GetLoudVideo
We’re excited to be featured in this short film about the issues facing farmers and our communities in rural America. #EatLocal #KnowYourFarmer
The food system is not serving farmers, laborers or consumers, said Danielle Endvick, communications director of the Chippewa Falls-based WFU. “Instead, it’s serving a handful of powerful monopolies who control nearly every aspect of the food supply ..." news8000.com/wisconsin-farm…
Thanks for checking in! Follow us to see our spring full of cute lambs, budding nature, and an adventuresome pup. #lambaday #knowyourfarmers #farmlife #agvocate 6/6
It was a good reminder of how important relationships between farmers & eaters are on a human scale. We count on good people like you joining us to learn, eat, and grow a better future together. #localfood #knowyourfarmer #strongertogether #resilience 5/6
It’s been a while since we did an introduction, so... We are Caleb and Lauren - the Blue Ox Farmers! We live and farm in West WI (North of Menomonie) where we raise grass-fed lamb & beef for awesome localvores like you! #threadstories 1/6
There’s still time to woo someone you love with a lamb masterpiece for Valentine’s Day (and stock your freezer, to boot)! #eatlocal Check out our delivery sites and find details on our website. blueox.farm/shop
Yesterday was a big off-farm day. We traveled the circuit to ensure our lamb made it safely to freezers in neighborhoods like this! We love to hear how the folks who support our farm are doing & watch families grow/change over the years. Thank you all! Stay safe & eat well!
@NLevendofsky @farmerinflannel My heart breaks for both of you! Sending all the 💛💛💛
“White privilege doesn’t mean your life isn’t hard. Farming is tough. But our struggles aren’t based on the color of our skin. That’s our privilege. Until we recognize that, we remain part of the problem. We — out here in rural America — need to be part of the solution.”
Our liberations are tied together #StrongerTogether
Out in Lincoln, Nebraska today where a protest in solidarity for meatpacking workers culminated with Black Lives Matter. #JusticeForGeorgeFloyd #meatpacking
Until everyone can expect equal access to justice, none of us are free. Solidarity with the our extended community in #minneapolis (& now, across the country) who demand equal access to justice is a moral necessity.
George Floyd's death is part of a long history of police brutality & racism. If we stand by while others suffer, we are complicit. It's our moral duty to reflect on our prejudices, rethink institutions & demand structural change. #JusticeForGeorgeFlyod nfu.org/2020/05/29/far…
Habitat is important. Food production & nature can coexist. We use rotational grazing to benefit wild neighbors. More grassland birds make our pastures home each year. We work to spot & protect their well-hidden nests for future evening sing-alongs. #regenerativeag #songsparrow
@jerrywiltonford Yep - we have been referring to the cross as “fuzzy baldies” because it is pleasantly contradictory... much like their demeanors.
We have had two new calves join the Blue Ox herd so far this spring. They are best buds and constantly conspiring - much to the chagrin of their mothers. #bestfriends #mischief #fuzzycows
👏 "The attorneys general for 11 Midwestern states urged the Justice Department on Tuesday to pursue a federal investigation into market concentration and potential price fixing by meatpackers in the cattle industry during the coronavirus pandemic."
Beef prices have risen with demand, yet ranchers are earning less for their cattle. Why? 4 companies control 85% of the beef market. With so little competition, those companies can collude to fix prices, paying farmers less while charging consumers more. apnews.com/6a34d27d3d7f9f…
