Montgomery and Anne Biklé about the upcoming publication of their book, "What Your Food Ate: How to Heal Our Land and Reclaim Our Health". We are so excited to dig into their fascinating new research and learn about the connection between soil health, plant health, and animal health, and how they all have a crucial impact on our health and well-being as humans.

Beef Study
BFA's Bionutrient Institute is leading a study to define Nutrient Density in beef, and we are still accepting farmer and citizen scientist participants who would like to submit samples for our 10/1 sample run deadline. We were recently awarded grant money that will allow us to accept 60 more partners to sign up for free, so now is a great time to get involved. We're incredibly excited to be able to offer this opportunity to our community.
In this study, we collect detailed data from our partners, which helps us to draw conclusions about the nutrient density of the meat and the health of the soil and forage or farming practices. We are currently running a total of 300 samples, and we expect to start sharing data from this study with the public this summer as the different analyses reach completion!
