Where Our Food Comes From

Although most of our food is not grown by us, it does come from local sources. We have a few things growing in our yard right now.

 Okra.

 Peppers.

and tomatoes. However, for right now most of our vegetables come from our summer share in Home Sweet Farm. Here is what we received for this week.

Most of our milk, cheese, eggs, and meat come from Gramen Farm. Here is what we picked up today.

Although we still have to go to the grocery store for some things, we are trying to phase it out as much as possible. Thankful for our local goodness and happy eating!

This Moment

A Friday ritual. A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor, and remember. Thanks Soulemama.

Gramen Farm

We love, love, love Gramen Farm! We are so thankful for them and their hard work. They provide us with raw milk, grass fed beef, eggs, kefir, and cheese (they offer other items as well)! I am so grateful. Not only do they allow my kids to grow up healthy and strong, but they also let them roam freely around the farm. Many, many thanks!

Gramen Farm

This is Gramen Farm, about a 20 minute drive from my place. It's the closest place I know of to obtain raw milk.  They also have kefir, eggs, grass fed beef, etc. I am going to give my son kefir with his milk to try and improve his eczema. Maybe my youngest daughter will drink it as well. They both have pretty bad skin. http://gramenfarm.com/
