Farmers having conversations about the food we grow and how we produce it.
We are women in agriculture from across Minnesota who volunteer our time to share information about food and farming.
Together, our group raises a variety of conventional and organic crops, livestock and produce. We share our personal experiences, as well as science and research, to help you sort through the myths and misinformation surrounding food and farming.
Our goal is to be a resource for your food and farming questions. We hope you’ll join the conversation.
Our guiding
principles
We’re informative, not opinionated
At CommonGround we feel it’s important to be inclusive of all types of farming, and we recognize how fortunate we are in the abundance of food options that we have.
No matter what food choices you make for your family, know we’re here to simply be a resource.
Real, straight from the source
Farmers work hard to produce safe, nutritious, and affordable food for your family.
We’re here to share our own farming experiences and personal stories, and provide credible, third-party resources for additional information.
We’re 100% farmer funded.
CommonGround was developed by farmers through two national checkoff programs, the National Corn Growers Association and the United Soybean Board.
The program is also supported, in part, by the Minnesota Corn Growers Association.
