Tight Margins of Farming, Butchering & What this Means for the Consumer with Kate Kavanaugh

We were blessed to sit down and talk with Kate Kavanaugh today, the founder of Western Daughters Butcher Shop in Colorado, the host of Mind, Body and Soil Podcast, and an overall badass farmer/butcher/woman - you’re going to want to hear her story!

The bulk of the conversation is centered around the idea that farming, butchering, and every step of the process of “farm to table” is not without hardships. Kate shares her own struggles keeping Western Daughters afloat, and brings up important considerations regarding the food and farming systems in America, and the struggles this not only brings upon the farmer, but the consumer. Learn how you can do your part to support local farmers with smaller, more realistic steps that go a long ways. We also talk about community, how most of us are seeking to “find our tribe” and feel a part of something greater, which involve the food that is placed at our tables. The importance of having conversations, being open minded, and finding individuals whom seek to evolve and expand their horizons with you cannot be overlooked. We hope you enjoy this candid conversation and we’ll absolutely have Kate back on to talk more about her dietary influences and her perspective on healing.
