Worse Than Monsanto

How many people could 5 million dollars bribe? I know, crazy question... but stick with me and I'll explain.

So, the gloves are off and we've crossed the Rubicon. There is no turning back. Here's the truth:


Fake Industrial Organics are Worse than Monsanto.

Seriously? 

Seriously! Industrial Organics (fake organics) are 'killing off' true organic food supply. And while they're doing it... they're laughing at you, the customer, calling you ignorant and taking your money with broad smiles.


But Monsanto Hurts Organic Foods too don't they?

Nope... and here's why:

Monsanto is a bad actor... but at least they're honest about who they are. They are a chemical company. They developed Glyphosate, Bovine Somatotropin (BST) and GMOs. They are not organic. Not by a long shot. And they don't pretend to be. So yes, they may harm the environment and taint the non-organic food but they don't hurt organic foods.

In fact, Monsanto is so clearly up to no good that, as they increasingly disrespect the created order of God's Eco System, smart thinking, educated folks wake-up and turn to organics even more! So, think about it... in that way, Monsanto might be organic foods most effective promoter!


What are Industrial Organics?

Industrial organics are commercial, industrial, factory-farming, multi-billion-dollar food industry giants who transformed themselves into angels of light when they took note that today's smart moms are willing to pay a premium for organic food.

Green dollar signs flash on board room calculators. 

"Let's get that premium!"

"We just need to figure out how to get that USDA Organic seal on our foods and just look at all the money we could make! Oh yeah... we'll have to take some crafty pictures so that these organic moms don't pick up on the fact that the animals are still actually in confinement on factory farms. But it won't be too hard to fool them... most of these moms aren't very bright. That's 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.

This fake industrial organic food threat is huge and it is important that you know how to help. We'll teach you more about this in the next few weeks.


Okay... but what about that 5 million dollar bribe?

5 million dollars is only half of the bribe cash available to bribe officials to falsify organic certification on one ocean liner ship of fraudulent grain. The other 5 million could go into the pocket of the industrial grain swindlers themselves.

That's right. The value difference between a non-organic shipload versus a certified organic shipload of 2 million bushels could easily surpass 10 million dollars.

See the temptation?

It's a well-known fact that many officials in the 3rd world can be bought for the price of a drink. So do you think 5 million dollars would buy a whole string of false signatures? 

I know it would.

Do you think it's not happening?

Think again!

The tons of 'organic' grain imported to USA from Turkey alone skyrocketed up over 1000% in two years!  Yes, you read it right... one thousand percent up!

The following, from Cornucopia Institute, shows a bit of what is happening.

 

Failures in USDA Oversight Rendered U.S. Markets Vulnerable to Fraud by Eastern European Cartels

"In 2014, the U.S. imported 14,000 metric tons of organic soybeans from Turkey.  That number skyrocketed to 165,000 metric tons in 2016.  Organic corn imports from Turkey increased more dramatically, going from 15,000 metric tons in 2014 to more than 399,000 by 2016.

Cornucopia's report finds that the U.S. became a dumping ground for imports of fraudulent organic corn, soybeans, and other commodities after the European Union cracked down on abuses originating in former Soviet Bloc countries including Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Romania, and Russia.  What makes this particularly problematic is that imports now make up the majority of feed grains fed to domestic certified organic livestock."

Hmmm. No wonder the supermarkets suddenly started selling cheap organic foods.

 

How big is the Industrial, fake organic threat to your real organic food?

It's huge.

Fake organics are worse than Monsanto. They could destroy all real organic foods. They have already overrun our supermarkets.

But they don't have to destroy real organics foods. It all depends on you.

You can be the Hero! (And so many of you are... Thank you!  Real Organic foods depend on you!)

The power is in your hands. You can defeat fake, industrial organics. You can rescue real foods and you can protect your family's health all in one move.

The choice is yours.

There is Hope! In the next weeks we'll teach you and guide you and give you better tools for the information battle ahead. Thankfully there are still many thriving, real organic farms producing real foods.

And they don't buy fraudulent 3rd world 'organic' grain.

If you're sick of fake organics... stay tuned!

Pork now CORN-FREE as well as free from all Soy, Chemicals, GMOs, Antibiotics, etc.

Good morning, Farm Family! This month feels like it has been a flurry of activity as I finally get to share the many long-awaited announcements we've been working on all throughout last year. Today brings this news: Our Pastured Pork is now CORN-FREE as well as Soy-Free! :) Soy-free has been our standard for years. Since we've had so many folks express appreciation for allergen-friendly pork, we decided to push even harder to reach the next level. Our family set a goal to bring you the Corn-Free status without raising pork prices. The task was daunting but the effort worth it. We are committed to raising our own grain to verify our livestock feed is always Chemical-Free & GMO-Free. It would be much easier and cheaper to buy organic grain on the open market but we believe there is too much risk of organic grain fraud considering that around 50% of the organic grain in USA has been imported. So now we not only had to face the hurdle of formulating a new Corn & Soy-Free diet but it also had to be ingredients that we could grow on our regenerative, organic farm in southern Pennsylvania. Thankfully I have two talented brothers, Winfred and Roland, who are dedicated to the difficult work of raising the specialty grains our chickens, turkeys, and pigs require. They also grow the hay to supply our grass-fed cattle during the winter. In a future post I'll share more of the grueling farm challenges they face so you can enjoy foods guaranteed chemical-free & GMO-free every time. After much experimentation to learn what does or does not work we finally settled on a feed blend we've proven over the last year.All our pork inventory is now officially Corn-Free & Soy-Free! As planned, your pork prices remain the same although it does cost us more on the farm... It's our pleasure to do this for you. Our freezer is now stocked with pork raised on lush fall pastures so we are prepared to fill all orders. In fact, February we plan to offer our best deals of the year for all who want clean, pastured pork. The new Corn-Free protocol is exciting, but of course, all our other top-notch standards are still in place as well. Our pastured pork is always Humanely Raised & Harvested, Chemical-Free, GMO-free, Antibiotic-Free, Soy-Free and now Corn-Free so your family can eat nutrient-dense pork with confidence. A picture is worth a thousand words. Because we also run our own butcher shop, this meat is NEVER exposed to Citric Acid, Nitrates or Nitrites, MSGs, preservatives or any kind of fillers! All of our bacon, sausages and ham uses super clean recipes and the butcher shop smokehouse uses real Hickory Wood and NEVER liquid smoke.Order now to enjoy clean, nutrient-dense Pastured Pork direct from our family farm to your family table.Your Farmer,Wesley ~5th generation on the farm God Designed it... We Respect it... That Explains it!   P.S. Grocery store Industrial Organic foods aren't truly pastured. And sadly, too many small pastured farms allow chemicals in the animal feed.Your family deserves chemical-free AND truly pastured foods so you can eat every meal with confidence.That's why our farm is dedicated to only high integrity foods... that taste amazing. We are committed to raising our Pastured Pigs with zero antibiotics or artificial growth hormones. Everything they eat is Chemical-Free, GMO-Free, Antibiotic-Free, Corn-Free, and Soy-Free. We even grow the grain to verify these high standards.It's our goal to treat you like friends and feed you like family.
