BLOG 15 PART 2 : FAMILY FARMS

   As a person who has been living  in a big city, I definitely agree with  the idea of  supporting family farms. I believe that family farms are very importand for our life. Because, i feel that it is the only one way that we can get our fresh and healty foods. However, according to farm aids, small family farms keep our enviroment much more clean than big companies do.But unfortunately, big companies force small family farms go out of the business which might make a lot harder to find fresh food for people.

  First of all, I strongly believe that family farms are only one way to get the fresh, healthy, and high quality food. Because, they produce their milk, meat or eggs in a natural way which mean they never use chemical in their product. However, they let their animals graze in natural environment, and they never let them eat artificial food. Thus, they can get healthy product from their animals.For example, if we visit a family farm, we will see that how these animals live in welfare and in a good condition.

  Second of all, family farms keep their community clean and also guarantee the preservation of green space with in the community. Because they do not have a lot of animals in their farms as much as big factories have. Therefore, they have less animal excrement, and it is easy to clean it. On the other hand, they do not have chemical wastes, because they never use chemicals in their product. Thus, they keep their water and land clean around their farms. If we visit a modern farm, we can easily see how the water is dirty because of  their chemical and animal excrement wastes.

   However, recently  modern factories are getting bigger and bigger everyday, and try to keep those small family farms out of the business. According to farm aids, every week 330 farmers leave their land, and very few young people become farmer today. Unfortunately, it is going to be very hard to find fresh, and healthy food for us in the future. I strongly believe that we need family farms product for our health. Because, definitely those chemicals are going to effect our health in negative way. For example, if we buy a box of milk we can read what kind of  harmful chemical does it contain in it.

   As a result, we all have to realize that how family farms are important for our life. However they are important for our environment as well. They keep our community clean and provide us high quality, and healthy food. Thus, we have to support family farm business by not buying modern farms product.
