Hey Everyone! I am more than ever convinced that we have got to change our way we think of food! I am beginning to see myself as Mel Gibson on Conspiracy Theory. What???? DO you think it is weird that I lock up my coffee? :)
Anyways, I watched POV_Food, Inc. CRAZY!!! Thanks Ashlie for the link.....

I began researching local meats....I found place called Peaceful Pastures. They may a delivery at Good Shepard each month. They have a CSA plan that seems interesting. I may go there and purchase some meat and try it out. I have never had goat meat before, so I am a little nervous to sign up for a month supply that may include it. I will let you know what I find.

Anyways, post any cool finds, local produce, articles that you locate. I want this blog to be a source of information for us all! I want us all to feel empowered for the sake of our families!!!
BTW.....if you see me mysteriously placing mail in different drops around Cookeville, just smile and wave! HA!

ReplyDeleteSissy, I am excited to see you doing this! Eating Organic/natural/wholesome food can be done on a budget! I have been doing it now for about two weeks, and have actually saved money! It takes a lot of planning, preparing, and thinking...but the benefits are GREAT! I highly encourage Everyone to watch, "Food Inc." it really changed the way I will look at food for teh rest of my life!!!
Any time you want to experiment with any kind of food... give me a call. I'm so there.
