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.
FEATURED EPISODE
Baseball, News And Chickens?
We keep telling you farming happens everywhere – in the country, of course, but also in cities and suburbs, on rooftops, in parking lots... and, amazingly, in the backyards of luxurious homes like the one owned by Atlanta's O'Day family – TV news veteran Elizabeth Prann (NewsNation, Fox, CNN) and Darren O'Day, who pitched 15 years in the Major Leagues and is now part of the Atlanta Braves broadcast crew. Though neither come from farming backgrounds, over the last few years they've really caught on.
When Darren was still pitching, Elizabeth started some small gardening projects with their three kids. They weren't especially successful – a few inch-long carrots was about the best of it. But when Darren retired after the end of the 2022 baseball season, things got serious. Now their perfectly manicured Atlanta backyard is home to a flock of well-loved chickens and a wide variety of crops! They don't just talk the talk either – they've put in the time to learn what makes it work. And they put in the time to keep making it work.

We’re reloaded and ready to roll for Season 5 of Where The Food Comes From, debuting Sept. 20 on RFD-TV! And we’re gonna show you some things you’ve never seen before.
We’ll shock you a bit early on in Episode 3 – get ready to say “Bye Bye Bananas.” And when we say bye bye, we mean it: In less than 10 years, there will be no more bananas. It’s as simple as that. Unless… We’ll show you the dice roll that’s currently underway in North Carolina, of all places, in a last-ditch attempt to save them.

We’ll take you to the suburban Atlanta mansion of NewsNation network anchorwoman Elizabeth Prann and her husband Darren O’Day, who pitched 15 years in the major leagues, last in 2022 with the Atlanta Braves, where he still works as part of the broadcast crew. The O’Days have turned their backyard into a pretty impressive farm – complete with chicken coop amidst the luxurious environs.
We’ll go to Wisconsin to make Gouda cheese with a Dutch woman who’s soon to become just the third female Grand Cheesemaster in that state’s great history. We’ll tell you a heartwarming Vidalia onion homecoming story that will prove young people are coming into farming. And we’ll meet some farmers in deep Southwest Florida who are (somehow) growing food with no irrigation. And we’ll show you a tropical fruit farmer who’s growing coconuts, papayas, mangoes and all manner of things the same way.
We’ll take you to the Got To Be NC Festival to show you how state fairs and festivals impact farming and the food you eat – and we’ll also keep track of the annual Pig Jig Barbecue Championship Cook-off while we’re there (yes, it was a tough assignment… we’re still full).
And believe it or not, we can tell you where all of your 4th of July potato chips come from, and we can pinpoint it right to a spot on a map.
We’ll take you there – and a whole lot of other places! – in Season 5. And remember to check out WhereTheFoodComesFrom.com for more from every show, including bonus footage, behind-the-scenes articles and the amazing Where The Food Comes From Cookbook!
