Fresh Pickings
Fresh Pickings magazine celebrates the incredible food, farms and families that make Iowa a special place to live.
In this issue, discover how farmers make the most of Iowa winters, visit a village in eastern Iowa where shopping and dining converge, and learn how Iowa Pork took advantage of a serendipitous opportunity to engage a college football team in promoting pork. You’ll also meet a producer of miso, a fermented soybean product, and an egg farmer passionate about hen welfare and continued improvements in the agriculture industry.
