Comments on: Know where you food is coming from! http://www.keeperofthehome.org/2008/02/know-where-you-food-is-coming-from.html Naturally inspired living for the Christian homemaker Tue, 16 Mar 2010 16:56:53 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Melonie (Momma & More) http://www.keeperofthehome.org/2008/02/know-where-you-food-is-coming-from.html/comment-page-1#comment-25829 Melonie (Momma & More) Mon, 25 Feb 2008 19:39:30 +0000 http://www.keeperofthehome.org/2008/02/know-where-you-food-is-coming-from.html#comment-25829 I read this article recently as well and was utterly disgusted by the treatment of the animals and the charges brought against the men involved. *sigh* I'm no big animal rights activist either, but there's a certain line one does NOT need to cross, no matter what the animals are destined to "become". We're currently stuck - er, stationed - in California for military purposes and we're looking forward to getting back to an area where we can source items more easily. Where we live now there seems to be a strange dichotomy: people want organic products, but still because they are "trendy", not because they are good for us or our children. They want organics for children, but they don't want any family focuses. Maybe it's just a pocket of people in this area, but I've found things shockingly lacking on these issues. Love your blog - I found you via OrgJunkie. I'll be back!

I enjoyed reading this post--it's wonderful that you have such a great source of local meat. We live in a highly agricultural area, but I haven't tried to find a source for chicken. (I don't eat red meat.) I think I'll look into that--thanks. You might enjoy reading Animal Vegetable Miracle. I recently wrote a review and post here: <a href="http://watibg.blogspot.com/2008/02/food-for-thought.html" rel="nofollow">http://watibg.blogspot.com/2008/02/food-for-thought.html</a> Stephanie,

The highlight of my week is when my daughter and I drive 20 minutes out into the country to get milk and eggs from a family farm. My daughter loves to see the calves, I love that I know we're eating healthy food. It's a great feeling knowing I'm supporting local farmers. The more we support them, the less likely they will have to give into the pressures of big companies, and the more likely we'll have access to real, natural animal products in the future!
