Learn More About America’s Farmers #AmericasFarmers

Pennsylvania is a big agricultural state and we are surrounded by all kinds of beautiful farmlands here in my area. There are vegetable farms, fruit farms, cattle, chicken and pig farms across our great state.
With that said, many other states are big agricultural areas too! States like Idaho, Indiana, Illinois, Virginia, Missouri, California and many others! Do you know where your food is coming from?
Recently I learned about the Matthews family based out of the great state of Missouri. I lived in St. Louis back in the late 1990’s so I was excited to learn about this farming family in Missouri.
Travis and Melinda Matthews are the parents of 4 beautiful children and when Travis was a teenager he took over the family farm after the loss of his father. Such a young age to lose a beloved parent.
Their farm is located in Western Missouri and they grow & farm soybeans and corn on 8,000 acres of beautiful farmland. The family does a great job at balancing family life and farm life…truly something to be admired & respected in today’s world.
You can learn more about the Matthew’s family and other America’s Farmers by visiting the America’s Farmers web site to learn more. It is really inspiring to read all of their stories.
America’s Farmers really do a great job that is hard work with long hours to put food on all of our tables! They are not just feeding their own families, they are feeding ours too!
I am a super busy mom, wife and grandmother who works from home and I know that my days can get crazy busy on a moment’s notice. I can not even imagine how busy those farmer’s lives can be.
Please take a few minutes out of your day today to head on over to the web site to learn more. It is truly an eye opener to where our food comes from and the wonderful farmers who produce it.
