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.

Catch Where The Food Comes From every Friday at 10:00 p.m. and Saturday at 1:30 a.m. EST on the RFD-TV Network and on demand at RFD-TV Now and Cowboy Channel+!

A Mushrooming Business From Home

Joe Iovino is a Tampa Bay firefighter. That's all he wanted to be. Well, he did have a flirtation with rock stardom when he was a little younger. But once he put on the uniform, he knew he'd found his calling... or thought he had. Now he's a farmer, too. Joe grows hundreds of thousands of gourmet mushrooms in his home laboratory and grow space for local restaurants and grocers. Ironically, when he started, he didn't even care for mushrooms. His wife loved 'em. He was looking for a hobby. He started poking around... and a new career was born.

Host Chip Carter with mushroom farmer Joe Iovino examining Lion's Mane mustrooms growing.

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.
