EP 148: Food Supply # 4 | What's in your Milk? Hormones, Homogenization, Government Production Quotas & Knowing your Farmer
Description
Today we talk to the owners of 2 dairy farms - a raw milk micro dairy in Tennessee & an organic dairy farmer and cheese processor in BC, Canada. We invited a conventional dairy farmer to add perspective, but they declined.
There’s a lot of buzz on the internet about raw milk but that’s not the whole story. We explain pasteurization, homogenization, nutritional value, how cows are fed & we discuss hormone use.
In this series, we’re taking you deep into the complicated world of your food supply. Whether it’s a steak, salad or slice of bread… there’s a lot happening in the process of getting what you eat to your table and you should know about it. Who owns the farmland? Who is growing your food? Do we have a secure food supply, is our food safe and are we stewarding the land and animals well in the process? In this 5-part series we’re pulling back the curtain and answering those questions.
