Behind the Industrial Curtain

The Industrial Organic Curtain needs torn down.

You deserve to know what lies behind that certified organic seal in the grocery store.

And no, it's not a small family farm with animals out enjoying fresh grass and sunshine each day.

That's what all organic farms used to be... but not anymore.

Industrial Giants have taken over.

They have changed the organic world.

Now most of the organic milk, eggs, and meat in the grocery store is produced by large Industrial Organic Corporations.

Today you get the necessary information to help carefully choose the best for your family so you are never fooled by these slick marketers. Ignorance is not bliss. If you choose them over a small farm, at least you will know the difference! :)

So what exactly are these Industrial Organics?

They are commercial, factory-farming, multi-billion-dollar food industry giants who transformed themselves into angels of light. They saw that today's smart moms are willing to pay a premium for organic food and the dollar signs flashed in their eyes.

"Let's cash in on that premium!"

"We just need to get the USDA Organic seal on our food... and look at all the money we could make! Organic animal feed will cost us more, but I'm sure we can get away without the truly pastured hassle."

"Oh yeah, we'll have to take some crafty pictures... Can't let the organic fanatics realize our animals are still confined on factory farms! But it won't be too hard to fool them since they seem gullible enough. Isn't that why they buy organic food in the first place?"

These multi-billion-dollar companies are usually not committed to organic farming values at all.

They think organic farming is a joke.

They see organic principles as only a game... something inconvenient to be worked around... a marketing ploy.

But there is one thing these industrial organic factory farms do very well. They churn out mounds of cheap, so-called 'organic' food which drives real, authentic organic food off the shelves.

Over the next few weeks I'll do my best to show you details behind the Industrial Organic Curtain.

You deserve to know the truth of America's organic food system so you can support the real organic truly pastured farms.

Stay tuned.

Scranton, PA Why use Lard? It's a clean traditional fat like tallow and butter.Has a natural blend of the three types of fats: monounsaturated fat, saturated and polyunsaturated.7 Healthy Reasons to Eat Lard.Here is an article you'll find inspiring: 10 Reasons to Bring Lard Back The Story Behind our Woodland Pork Lard: We don't waste anything on our farm. Especially when it comes to livestock. We respectfully use every bit of that animal to accomplish the most good possible. What can't be eaten is carefully turned into rich composted and given back to the soil to fuel plant growth and build organic matter. What CAN be eaten falls into two categories. The first category is LOVED by all and basically needs to be rationed out.... For example, people will "fight" for the chance to eat juicy pastured pork chops, crispy bacon, savory sausages, or BBQ baby back ribs. But not everyone has as much love for the second category which makes up a sizeable portion of each pig. This category includes things like soup bones, knuckle bones, and LOTS of pork fat since we refuse to use the industry standard Ractopamine (Paylean) drug to keep our pigs artificially lean. The good news is, we are able to render some of this excess fat into beautiful Woodland Pork Lard that now falls into the loved-by-all category! :) Lard is so versatile it's simple to use as a substitute for your everyday cooking oil. It adds pizazz to everything from simple breakfast fried eggs to homemade French fries. Lard is the secret ingredient your Grandma used for her delectable flaky pie crust.
