Camp Creek Organic Produce owner, James Nisly is the Iowa’s organic farmer. Nisly discusses why transitions to organic farms is hard, how soil health translates to your nutrition, and how his efforts to provide healthy organic food for Iowa schools are being opposed by the US Government.
Starting in 1998, Nisly was one of the first to go organic in Iowa. Only recently, has the world caught up with what new research is starting to show: organic food is more nutritious. Nisly discusses many topics in organic farming, one of which is providing healthy organic produce for kids through school meals. Toward the end of the interview he reveals the DOD is subsidizing non-organic and processed food for kids, making organic equivalents higher in cost by comparison.
