Star Tribune Article on our Work
Posted by Reginaldo Haslett-Marroquin on January 22, 2010
An article by the Star Tribune that has been on the works for about a month coming out in print, meanwhile, here is the on-line version. Although we do our best to explain what we do, articles can never cover the whole story. I am very impressed with the way Kristin Tillotson wove in humor, facts and story telling. This is serious work and I hope you reading it will start asking more questions about our food system and how food and agriculture affects the social, economic and political fabric of our communities. We are here to build something that will last and that will not deny people living in poverty the opportunity to do something for themselves while providing consumers with top quality healthy products. Feel free to contact us if you feel like you would like more information.

Great article and great work. Congratulations for your success and proving that animals can be humanely treated.
Are your egg and chicken products available in Minneapolis? I would love to buy them but don’t get to Northfield!

We have limited amounts of poultry processed at a USDA inspected facility, but yes we have some available and will have more soon. To stay tuned, sign-up to our Twin Cities direst sales list, just click on this link: http://lists.ruralec.com/mailman/listinfo/twincitiesdirectsales
This is fantastic! I currently buy organic eggs from Costco but still worry that I know nothing of how the chickens are treated and where my food is really coming from. I look forward to being able to buy YOUR eggs.
I just came across this article as I was looking deeper into the Peace Coffee company. I admire the work that you’re doing. I’m a co-op shopper and advocate, and personally delight in the Guatemalan Dark Roast by Peace Coffee — It fuels my creative fire! Thanks and best wishes.
