Yikes, Ike: Sept 12


We are prepared for the storm, and hope that no damage affects our up-coming season. The greenhouse is loaded full of our transplants (1500+ sqft), weak trees are cut down, water is stored for the livestock (in case the power is out and we cannot run our well pump), the windows on the house are boarded up, and Farmer Brad has a local beef stew on the stove, to keep the family nourished.

We pray that everyone is safe and that our season will not be delayed from the storm.

Yikes Ike!


Here comes another hurricane! This is becoming a frequent happening, although we could use the rain.

Cloned meat on the market!

Ignorance is bliss. Do you really know what you are eating? Buy local righteous food that you can trust! And let's not forget all the GMO corn, soy and canola. Better labeling laws would quench this industrial food system like it has in Europe. How can we have a free choice when it is not required to be labeled? We have a right to know.

Clones' offspring may be in food supply: FDA | Health | Reuters
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Food and milk from the offspring of cloned animals may have entered the U.S. food supply, the U.S. government said on Tuesday, but it would be impossible to know because there is no difference between cloned and conventional products.

Meet the Neighbors

Lela and Pipi are enjoying our back fields which include a 100+ year old forest. They recently met the neighbors, two real jackasses. Sorry, but that's what they are!
