Top activities this month: • Field Mom tour at Ultra Foods18 Field Moms attended the Ultra Foods tour

and met farmers Michele Aavang and Donna Jeschke along with dietician Jodie Shield. During the tour moms learned about misleading labels, absence food marketing and nutritional information. Field Moms eagerly asked questions about organic vs. conventional farming and other food concerns. Moms also received farmer “pen pals” that they will connect with on a regular basis about food, farming and more.

• Dairy farmer, Linda Drendel and her daughter Julie, spoke to a group of 8 moms near Chicago. The group asked many questions about antibiotics, hormones, and raw and organic milk. Some moms expressed interest in the Field Mom program and the program’s organizer indicated interest in other opportunities for speaking engagements.

• Through a Pinterest conversation, IFF was able to respond to a follower’s question about why dairy farmers are pledging not to inject their cows with hormones if it is in fact safe. IFF explained it’s a marketing decision and not a food safety concern.

Upcoming events:• The Field Moms will tour Goulds

family hog farm on March 29. Field Moms will see piglets and learn about farrowing.

• Farmer, Michele Aavang, will speak to a group at East Bank Fitness Club. An event invite was sent out to the club’s membership of 10,000. Brand Ambassador blog posts:
