I don’t believe in coincidences…
Last night’s sunset on the farm. How lovely.
My proud papa from earlier today after helping me start my first vegetable garden! Broccoli, onions, beets, carrots, snow peas, arugula, lettuce, and spinach are hopefully on their way! That is, of course, if I can keep the critters away. Dad offered me his 22, but I think I’ll try a fence first…
Stand Up For Local Food!
Americans are clamoring for affordable, locally produced food that’s better for our health and the environment (and tastier too!). A new bill that would make more organic and locally produced food available in our schools, grocery stores and restaurants has just been introduced! U.S. Rep. Chellie Pingree (D-Maine) and Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio)’s Local Farms, Food and Jobs Act aims to help local family farmers who use sustainable practices compete with bigger, better-financed agricultural conglomerates.
This bill will face a tough fight. Tell Congress that you and your family want more healthy, local food today!

Kids like this one keep hope for humanity alive! Most adults often think I’m “crazy” when I talk about supporting sustainable, local and organic, so maybe this 11 year old kid can get through to them? As I’m feeling rather uninspired these past few days, maybe I should just become an organic farmer too…
I look forward to every Saturday morning being able to go to my local, chemical-free, grass-fed farmer’s market to shop. I look forward to one day having my own garden and chicken coop. I can’t imagine not having the ability to do so.
FARMAGEDDON is coming!
