Farms.com Wishes Americans a Happy Thanksgiving

As we start to gather with our friends and families for a special Thanksgiving meal - Farms.com would like to thank those responsible for growing the food we are fortunate to enjoy on a daily basis. It’s important to show thanks to our farmers and ranchers who have persevered through severe drought conditions and difficult economic times. Giving thanks after the harvest is a tradition that cannot be celebrated without the hard work and dedication of the people that produce our food.

The Farms.com family would like to thank primary producers for providing healthy, nutritious food that we can all enjoy with our family and friends while giving thanks for our bounty. In honor of Thanksgiving, Farms.com has created video that we hope you all will enjoy!
