Our mission is to help our country move away from factory farming and towards humane, sustainable agriculture. Greener Pastures is a blog, community, and activism hub in the upper midwest here to make everyday support of humane, sustainable agriculture easy and seamless with your lifestyle. Because let's face it- we want our food and farms to be healthy, humane, and sustainable for farm animals, c
ommunities, and our environment. But the way our food system is set up makes that way too hard. So hard that we wind up buying factory farmed products- even though we don’t want to! Surprise: because our food system favors (and has been shaped by) powerful corporate interests in industrialized agriculture that have stacked the deck against ethical farmers and community food systems raising food in the spirit of land stewardship, animal welfare, and community nourishment. That’s where Greener Pastures comes in: we're your dose of inspiration, encouragement, and education for everyday support of humane, sustainable agriculture. We provide credible guidance on how to make food decisions authentic to your values so you can vote with your fork and feel amaaaazing about your choices. And we don’t stop there- we give you opportunities to take civic action to shape a better food system- one without factory farming. Check out our blog for the latest recipes, stories, and how-to's for eating authentic to your values. Learn what we're doing to help celebrate and support humane, sustainable farms. And get notified about the next opportunity to take grassroots action towards greener pastures. After all, it's going to take all of us at the table to move towards a more kind, just, green food system. And we can't wait to do it together. togreenerpastures.org
