Greetings! Thank you to everyone who has given us the benefit of your feedback on this valuable program. Farmer Goes to Market is the only program of its kind: A regular, independent voice bringing you unvarnished and useful information about how your Nebraska farmers operate in order to supply the food and fiber you sell every day. Farmers are a truly invaluable resource in helping explain sometimes confusing issues to customers, and I hope you put them to use at every opportunity. If you haven't already done so, won't you take just a moment to click here and check out the program? Feel free to leave me a comment or question about how to improve it in the months ahead.
Sincerely,
Kathy Siefken
Executive Director

The farm and ranch families represented by Nebraska Farm Bureau are proud sponsors of the Farmer Goes to Market program. We take great pride in supporting Nebraska's agricultural foundation. A key part of that effort is to make sure we produce safe and affordable food. This newsletter is an important part of our effort to connect the two most important parts of the food chain -- the farmer and the grocer -- with the goal of increasing consumer awareness and information about how their food is raised in Nebraska.
