Fellowship of Iron and Earth: From Farm to Bowl with Tim McGreevy

Fellowship of Iron and EarthA poem by Tim McGreevyWe do not seek fortune or fame. We work the land until we need a cane. We understand the face of pain. We feel the sting of judgment and shame. And we do our best to hide the strain of too much water or too little rain. We are the people who plant and seed. We feed the world and those in need. The unsung heroes of death and birth. We are the fellowship of iron and earth. We are the medics of our soil's health, the stewards of our planet's wealth on the front lines of drought and flood, battling the elements with flesh and blood. We are the first to feel the rising temperature range because we are the first responders to climate change. We are the people who plant and seed. We feed the world and those in need. The unsung heroes of death and birth. We are the fellowship of iron and earth. Our job is to put food on the table. And when people eat, the world is stable. We feed everyone who comes ashore. Black, white, brown, and more. So, we take an oath to feed the poor. For if we don't, there will be war. We are the people who plant and seed. We feed the world and those in need. The unsung heroes of death and birth. We are the fellowship of iron and earth. Tim McGreevy’s Pulse BreakfastCook lentils 30-45 mins (no need to pre-soak)Add a little bit of butter and salt and pepper to tasteServe in a bowl with an egg on the sideResearch mentioned in the episode: Prospective evaluation of echocardiographic parameters and cardiac biomarkers in healthy dogs eating four custom-formulated dietsShow Notes:00:00 - Introducing Tim McGreevy and the Power of Pulses01:57 - How Tim Went from Farmer to Farmer's Advocate06:20 - Research from the Pea and Lentil Council08:26 - New Study Debunks Misunderstandings Around Pulse-Inclusive Diets10:38 - The History of Pulse Ingredients in Pet Food13:11 - Pulse Industry Impacts from DCM16:47 - How Did the FDA Announcement Affect Farmers?19:40 - Damage to US Crop Ecosystems21:10 - Selecting the Right Pea Varieties for Pet Food (And Why This Is Critical For Research, Too)27:03 - Demands Fueling Pulse & Plant-Based Innovation in the Pet Food Industry29:10 - Pulses Proliferating at Natural Products Expo West, And Your Local Grocery Store30:45 - The Age of Pea Proteins32:21 - The Health (And Planetary) Benefits of Pulses for Pets34:38 - A Poem by Tim McGreevy37:04 - Tim's Pulse-Powered Breakfast Recipe39:00 - Conclusion and Farewell
