Some Colorado Schools

Yesterday on the CBS local news I saw something very disturbing. Some of the Metro Denver Schools have put a hold on Beef due to a video released by HSUS about Cattle Production.

Once again the farmers and rancers have been shown in a negative light. This has really got to stop - we as farmers and ranchers know the ultimate goal of the HSUS, but the general public does not.

We have to get our story out there and this is the perfect time to start promoting our story especially since Food Check Out week is fast approaching. Your state Farm Bureaus will have media releases celebrating this event that you can access to put in your local papers, and on local radio stations.

Lets start spreading a positive story of agriculture to help combat these negative images HSUS is spreading around.

This is a perfect opportunity to take the Accurate Ag Books into schools as well to show them the accurate story of agriculture. We need to also reach the school boards and administrators because they are the people making the decision to stop offering meat to the students.
