The food freedom movement has gained some major momentum in recent years as the war on farmers and consumer access to real food has intensified. That’s where non-profit food advocacy groups like Farm-To-Consumer Legal Defense Fund have been so critical in educating, supporting, and defending the right to real food access for all. John Moody, a Louisville, Kentucky-based farmer, author, speaker, and Executive Director for the Farm to Consumer Legal Defense Fund, has been an enthusiastic supporter of real food since it helped him restore his failing health due to allergies, constant ailments, duodenal ulcers, and dental decay. It was that journey has led him to become active in helping product the rights of people to get the real food they need to heal, too.

The Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund was launched on July 4, 2007 and is a non-profit organization recognized under the Internal Revenue Code as a Section 501(c)(4) organization. This group was created to protect the rights of farmers and consumers to engage in direct commerce; it protects the rights of farmers to sell the products of the farm and the rights of consumers to access the foods of their choice from the source of their choice. They are a true grassroots organization and receive no government funding and little or no corporate funding. The primary source of revenue is from the membership fees collected, donations and grants. Become a member of the Farm-To-Consumer Legal Defense Fund by CLICKING HERE.

Listen in as John and I have an in-depth conversation about why the FDA thinks that we have no fundamental right to choose the food we can eat, why small farmers face such needless regulations, the government’s all-out war on small farms, and more! Whether you are already on board with the real food message or not, we can and should rally around organizations like the Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund who are standing on the frontline of the battle over what we feed our families and ourselves.
