Although the United States is considered one of the wealthiest and most powerful countries, it’s certainly not the most healthy. As Wendell Berry famously said: “People are fed by the food industry, which pays no attention to health, and are treated by the health industry, which pays no attention to food.” This is what needs to change. THERE MAY BE A SOLUTION. And it’s called REGENERATIVE HEALTHCARE.
I was chatting with someone recently who casually mentioned to me how great buying day old chicks from a hatchery is, because they come to the farm already vaccinated. Wait. What!? This caught me by surprise… but it really shouldn’t have. I mean, we vaccinate day old human babies. Of course day old chicks are, too! I had to learn more.
Being “humane” means that humans have compassion, sympathy, and consideration for their treatment of animals. Especially given the awful state of modern conventional farming, this is really really important!!! You may have seen the “certified humane” label on products. On a broad stroke basis, Miller’s Bio Farm checks all the boxes to be certified humane. But, when you get into the nitty gritty details, Miller’s only fits in with 99% of the requirements. We don’t want to be held back… even 1%.
I have this guilt within me. Maybe you have it, too. I spend more on food than most can afford. It’s really not fair. I wish everyone could cook and eat with the quality of ingredients I have in my kitchen. But then I got to thinking. I realized that I’m buying more than food.
The farm staff and myself recently sampled over 20 different types of raw goat cheese… and a goat’s milk caramel. Oh my, they are all so yummy. Our favorites are now available in the store! I also went a little deeper and interviewed Amos Miller from Misty Creek Goat Dairy.
You may have heard about einkorn flour. Maybe you’re gluten intolerant, maybe you’re really into nutrition, maybe you’re a wheat connoisseur, or maybe you’re a real food enthusiast. No matter your background and interests, you may benefit from einkorn flour, and here’s why.
Raw milk is one of the most misunderstood foods. Is it safe? Should I pasteurize it? How do I store it? Let’s see if I can help build your confidence, no matter where you are in your raw milk journey.
Cheese is one of those unfortunately vilified foods that causes hesitation for some. Let’s be clear. I am NOT talking about Velveeta or any cheese that has ingredients other than milk, culture, and real salt (and maybe some natural herbs or spices or wood smoke). I have some great news - real old fashioned raw cheese is excellent for your health! You can be proud and healthy eating it daily. There are so many reasons why. So many that I’ll keep each sharp and to the point.
Americans are infatuated with the nostalgia of farm life. They are similarly fascinated with the Amish. In reality, farming isn’t very glamorous. Being Amish certainly isn’t glamorous. But being an Amish farmer is absolutely rewarding. Here’s a peek into what an average day on an Amish farm looks like...
The pandemic has exposed major weaknesses of many of the American systems we rely on. And, one of those systems is the agricultural system, specifically meat. You see, four huge companies control 85% of the American meat industry - Tyson, Cargill, JBS, and Smithfield. It’s monopolistic. When a part of the supply chain goes down, the entire system breaks. And, it’s the farmers, animals, and consumers who take the hit.
