Real Food...Real People

When we meet the true stars of our country’s culinary world...the local farmers, ranchers and artisans whose products feed our nation ... food no longer becomes just a meal on a plate.


We instead find a surprising new relationship with our food that connects us to these people and the earth from which they raise, find and forage the food that nourishes us. 


Join us as we discover the real story behind the food and meet these men, women and families all across our great country.  Some are carrying on multi-generational traditions of family farming and business; others having escaped the corporate world for harder work, less pay, but infinitely greater rewards; some seeking a connection with the earth and a (not so) simple life; each with a story all their own.






Something remarkable happens

when one connects with the source of one’s food

The hidden strength of our urban centers and our country as a whole is the rural space between the cities that “connect the dots” and bind our nation together.  

These unique individuals are the common thread that keep it all together!
