What's in the Water?

The EPA released a 307 page report, noting that all wells downstream from five dairies in the lower Yakima Valley in Oregon are significantly contaminated with nitrates, bovine antibiotics and other pollutants from confinement dairy runoff.

    Glenda,
    Just tried your organic, free range turkey and had to tell you how DELICIOUS it was! I think the family had half of it gone before I got it to the table. Thanks for the wonderful, healthy product. Looking forward to the next one that is waiting in the freezer.
