Farm-Raised Faith America

It’s really been to long since we’ve posted. The truth is it’s been a busy summer so far. We are learning that systemic change doesn’t come easy.

Over the past several months we have reached out to several funders, whom all say they are focused on food sovereignty. But sometimes that looks more like providing a fish, rather than teaching others how to fish.

Because of that my hat is off to ranchers like Boedeker Farms Gilmore Angus Ranch and others who are providing high quality heritage beef to their neighbors and communities.

As we continue to push forward with our vision for the R.E.F.U.G.E. Network throughout the route 81 corridor, we want to thank everyone for their continued support and prayers.

R.E.F.U.G.E. Network™️ Mission:

The R.E.F.U.G.E. Network™️, bridges the Heritage Farm-Fresh food gap by delivering high-quality, nutrient-dense protein to Veterans, Seniors, and K-12 programs at zero cost. Guided by our “Local-Stays-Local” mandate, we synchronize independent strategic partners to build a decentralized, biosecure agricultural infrastructure while facilitating monetary investment into our National Herd Restoration Initiative. Our mission is to transition vulnerable communities away from fragile, centralized supply chains toward a resilient, localized circular economy that restores dignity, equity, and food sovereignty to our most at-risk rural populations.

We stand with all local ranchers. We support a decentralized food system. We support local bio-secure networks. We support a local circular economy with our mandate “Local stays Local”. We support food sovereignty.
We ask for your support of The R.E.F.U.G.E. Network™️

The FDA has authorized the emergency use of Negasunt Powder to help prevent and treat New World screwworm. Distribution will be limited to U.S. Department of Agriculture for use by authorized federal, state, local, and tribal agencies. Strict safeguards are in place to protect people, animals, and the environment. With growing concerns of the parasite entering U.S. borders, this authorization strengthens preparedness efforts to protect American agriculture and livestock.

Calling my Oklahoma friends!

Does anyone have a connection at Tyson Foods (especially in Enid or OKC)?

We’re applying for a Tyson grant to feed local Veterans/Seniors and help ranchers rebuild their herds.

We just need a local Tyson employee to list as our 'endorsing contact' for the application.

If you work there or know someone who does, please shoot me a DM!

Already backed by the OK Dept of Agriculture.

We are incredibly honored to receive official support from the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture, Food and Forestry (ODAFF).

As we activate our Alpha Node here in Northwest Oklahoma, our mission is clear: to bypass broken supply chains and deliver zero-cost, high-density premium protein directly to Veterans, Seniors, and K-12 schools.

We are proud to partner with local independent ranchers and processors to build a resilient, decentralized food system. As ODAFF noted, keeping local beef in local communities doesn't just solve food insecurity—it "lays the building blocks for strong economic development."

The blueprint is proven. The Route 81 Corridor activation is officially underway.

The R.E.F.U.G.E. NETWORK™—the flagship initiative of Farm-Raised Faith America™ (FRFA)—is dedicated to creating a just, local, and resilient agricultural system. We are a systemic replacement for a fractured industrial food model, actively working to address the consolidation of the centralized beef supply by bridging the Heritage Farm Fresh Food Gap for our most vulnerable neighbors.

Our model is built on equitable access, prioritizing the Veterans, Seniors, and K-12 students whom the modern economy has overlooked. We operate as the connective tissue in a decentralized, circular economy that keeps agricultural resources localized and restores power to rural communities.

Through our proprietary, asset-light logistical network, we completely bypass broken supply chains. Operating out of our National Coordination Center in Jet, Oklahoma, we manage the complex logistics for the entire Route 81 Corridor—a multi-state artery. By centralizing our administration in Jet, we eliminate the need for costly brick-and-mortar facilities in every state we serve.

Because of this centralized efficiency, our model can seamlessly and rapidly scale across state lines. This means that funding intended for a specific region stays in that region, instantly connecting local land stewards to independent processors to ensure high-quality, sustainably raised protein flows directly to that specific community at absolutely no cost to the recipient.

This model has already garnered state-level recognition. As the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture, Food and Forestry (ODAFF) recently noted in their official support of our Alpha Node activation, utilizing locally raised protein to feed local communities serves to "improve the quality of life for citizens and lay the building blocks for strong economic development."

By establishing true scalable food sovereignty, we ensure that our communities and our regional family farms can sustain themselves with dignity, equity, and resilience.
