It was quite the year here at our Roanoke, Indiana Farm. Enjoy the footage and the discussion with Blake and Blaine when you watch this episode.
In today's episode, Blake and Blaine Hitzfield provide some REAL talk about the food system, the opportunity for farmers and consumers to impact the food system, and begin to unpack the question "Can We Feed the World with Regenerative Farming?" We're not waiting on the government to do anything. We're taking action in our community, where we can deliver in the USA and providing education to other farms.

Whether you are trying to create a positive culture within a community, business, family, etc., we can all agree that it takes consistent and intentional effort to establish and maintain. At Seven Sons, we believe creating a positive culture starts with clear core values that all staff and our family believe in and incorporate into their daily lives. In return, our customers will have positive experiences and also build trust with our company, their farmer, and the people working to make our mission come to life.
