Guest Bio
Dave Murphy is the founder and executive director of Food Democracy Now!, a grassroots movement of more than 650,000 American farmers and citizens dedicated to reforming policies relating to food, agriculture and the environment. Murphy has been called “the most crucial and politically savvy actor in the on-going efforts to help move American agriculture into the 21st century” as a result of his “Sustainable Dozen” campaign, which resulted in four candidates being placed in high level positions at the USDA and his efforts to reform food and agriculture under the Obama administration.
In 2006, Murphy moved back to Iowa to help stop a factory farm from being built near his sister’s farm. After seeing the loss of basic democratic rights of rural Iowans, Murphy decided to stay in Iowa to fight for Iowa’s farmers and rural residents and expose the flaws of industrial agriculture to help create a more sustainable future for all Americans.
In 2007, Murphy organized the Food and Family Farm Presidential Summit, where five of the six Democratic candidates pledged their support to help save family farm agriculture and he filmed then Senator Barack Obama’s now famous promise to Iowa farmers to label genetically engineered foods.
Previously, he has worked as an environmental and food policy lobbyist and political strategist. His writing has appeared in the Nation, the Hill, Huffington Post and the New York Times. Dave is known as the “big dude from Iowa” by friend and foe alike and is a board member of the Iowa Organic Association. -

Guest Bio
Jill Dixon is a Toxic Free Adviser and Independent Pro Rep with the Healthy Home Company. Back in 2011, Jill confronted head-on the toxic lifestyles we are exposed to through our environment, and especially the toxic products that are unknowingly being used on our children. Born out of a search for understanding, born out of unconditional love for her daughter, Emma, and the desire to provide her with the best, healthiest life possible, Jill began to teach herself about the chemical ingredients found in our homes and products.
Jill is a Licensed Real Estate agent with her husband and father-in-law, but when she found out about the Healthy Home Company in October 2013, it was evident to her that she was already on the same very important mission to protect our families and it was only natural for her to take an active role in sharing what she was learning.
