WELCOME TO THE SHOW!
We’re most often out in a field with our noses in the dirt. But you’ll also find us in lab coats and restaurants and packinghouses, Congressional and State offices, college and industry research facilities – anywhere there’s a story to be told about food and farming.
Where The Food Comes From taps into the passion and commitment of the people who feed us. There are easier ways to make a living, as anyone who’s ever seen the show knows. But from the farms to the research laboratories to the offices where people make the rules that regulate it all, the people involved in agriculture care deeply about what they’re doing. They make up just 1.5% of the population – but they proudly bear the weight of keeping the rest of us fed.
That’s the power of Where The Food Comes From – peeling back the labels and letting the world meet some of the people who put food on their plates.

Tropical Fruit Salad
Papayas, mangoes, coconuts and bananas – walking through a jungle and seeing things like that makes you think you can't possibly still be in the U.S. But you most assuredly are, in Southwest Florida, near Fort Myers, in fact. What would really surprise you is to see these things growing together – like right on top of each other – and thriving without any fertilizer or pesticide or even any (gasp!) water.
Once upon a time, Matthew Reece was a civil engineer by trade. That life proved unsatisfying. A change in the way he ate changed all the rest of it, too. Now Reece is practicing organic, regenerative agroforestry, operating a nursery and harvesting fruit for a variety of markets.

SEASON 1
Think you know food? Think you know what farm-to-fork means?
Where The Food Comes From is a TV series with a wholly unique take on the food and farming world. We’re centered on the farm, but we go up-and-downstream to show you all the invisible hands it takes to keep us fed. Make no mistake — we are about the business of farming. But we’re equally about the heart and soul of farmers. We’re telling true heart stories about people with a passion for feeding others, whether they’re in the country, the city, or in-between, whether they’re growing food, shipping it, or making it possible for others to do those things. We ask the tough questions, too. And we do it all with style and a gentle wit that will leave you laughing while you learn.
