Farms in North Dakota

In a state whose food system is dominated by commodity export agriculture, North Dakota's small farms serve a community function that goes beyond food supply — they are proof points for a different kind of agriculture, demonstrating that the state's extraordinary soils can feed people directly as well as fuel industrial food chains. The farmers who have built direct market operations in North Dakota have done so against significant headwinds, and the loyalty of their customers reflects a recognition of that effort. The grass-fed ranches of the northern and western plains operate on native range that is among the most ecologically intact in the country, and the beef they produce carries the flavor of that landscape.
