Where does your food come from? This episode starts a series exploring how agriculture systems impact our families. Up first, Liz sits down with Andrew Griffith to talk about the state of American agriculture today.

Dr. Andrew Griffith is an Assistant Professor at University of Tennessee in the Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics. He shares how agriculture has evolved in the past 100 years, and the pros and cons to changes in cattle, crops, and overall standards. 

Liz and Andrew discuss how farming together as a family helps everyone learn to build good foundations, and what it really means to give food labels like non-GMO, organic, pasture raised, or grass fed. Plus, the question everyone wants the answer to: Are egg prices coming down anytime soon?
