BFA Newsletter - 4/27/24
COVERING THE CUTTING EDGE OF RESEARCH AND IN THE FIELD BEST PRACTICE WITH LEADERS FROM AROUND THE WORLD.
A Label You Can Trust?
Maybe you don’t buy packaged products in the grocery store, (or not many). But if you do, imagine there was a label that confirmed not only the nutritional caliber of the raw ingredients, and how it was raised, but it also connected to the way the food was processed?
And what if this label was awarded to only the foods with the highest nutrition and that has been processed in a way your ancestors would recognize and find appropriate?
Sourdough bread vs white bread.
Lacto-fermented salami vs the typically processed variety.
Wine made with natural yeast, instead of the kind with sulfites.
Etc...
AND that practiced the highest standards of good soil management.
Meet Megan Westgate
Here’s what you need to know about Megan
Megan is the Founder and Executive Director of the Non-GMO Project (NGP)
NGP created the Butterfly Seal most of you recognize and trust
The Butterfly Seal is on more products in the US than any other label (other than Kosher)
After a multi-year process to come up with a wholistic positive definition label (that we at the BFA have been honored to be part of), come listen to her share the vision, strategy and state of the One Health oriented label that is coming out soon. And engage with your questions and suggestions.
Only at the Soil and Nutrition conference. Starting May 14th , running every week through the end of August. The conversation you want to be part of!
