Food Bill Farm Bill - Adam Warthesen

The Farm Bill is largely a Food Bill with over 80% of the programs in the area of public nutrition. The previous $867 billion Farm Bill was passed in 2018 but on September 30, 2024 it expired. The nation’s farmers and consumers need a bipartisan solution says Adam Warthesoen, Organic Valley’s Vice President of Government Affairs. To bring the farm story to the public and to celebrate National Farmers Day October 11, Organic Valley is bringing a firsthand farm experience to viewers live from small organic family farms, coast to coast, all day long. Anyone can join.

Join Organic Valley farmers live from the field as we celebrate the hard work, dedication, and commitment to protecting where your food comes from!
