10:00 a.m. - 11:30 a.m. Opening Sessions - Keynote Speaker
“TAKE FOOD BULLYING BY THE HORNS”
Michele Payn, CSP to address NACAA Members at Monday General Session as Keynote Speaker
Take Food Bullying by the Horns: Filled with examples from across the grocery store and scientific evidence, this webinar is filled with new insight. Food bullying is taking away choice on farms and ranches across the world. Based on the new Food Bullying book, Michele illustrates how trends in neuroscience and psychology are changing perceptions about farming, and agriculture as a whole. She also takes a lively look at where these trends have led to bullying within agriculture and how we can be more compassionate in our business to help consumers better understand the complexities of the food system.
Michele Payn, CSP, connects the people and science of food and farming as principal of Cause Matters Corp. She is known for being a community catalyst, a passionate advocate for global agriculture —and antagonizing people into action. Michele has worked with farmers in more than 25 countries, raised over $5 million in sponsorships for the National FFA Foundation, and has been involved in Extension most of her life. She is the author of three books: #1 best seller Food Bullying; Food Truths from Farm to Table, an IPPY bronze medal winner; and No More Food Fights! Michele’s degrees are in Agricultural Communications and Animal Science from Michigan State University. She has earned the Certified Speaking Professional designation, awarded to less than 10% of professional speakers globally. She resides with her ‘city slicker’ husband and cow-loving daughter on a small farm in central Indiana. She enjoys Registered Holsteins, the MSU Spartans, and making memories with friends around the table. Michele connects conversations around the food plate at www.causematters.com and socially through @mpaynspeaker.

Why do you need Food Bullying? Food has become a battleground where marketing labels and misinformation is used to bully and demonize people around their eating and farming choices. What if you could stop stressing about what other people think and make eating decisions based on your own standards? This startling look at the misrepresentation of food sheds light on bogus nutrition and environmental claims to help you recognize bullies and defend your food choices. You’ll hear more from Michele Payn with her “Take Food Bullying by the Horns” keynote to kick-off our conference - this book is a great way to take home some of her research around help others understand our business.
