Once upon a time, there was a woman who cooked for a huge family on Thanksgiving without ever stopping to think about where that food came from. And I am sad to say that woman was me.

So, my first food thanks goes to my loving husband who has bit by bit broadened my horizons about agriculture.

Then, I want to thank the beef producers, the poultry producers, the lamb producers, corn producers, soy producers, cotton producers, wheat producers, dairy producers, fruit and vegetable producers, rice producers, and the list goes on and on.

There would be little enjoyment in life without the bountiful products from all aspects of agriculture.

Agriculture is life.

Blessing on all the souls who work hard every day to grow and harvest the foods I love.
