Cows have long been blamed for their contribution to climate change, with many attributing this to their flatulence (AKA farts.) However, the reality is that cow farts are just one aspect of a much larger issue: methane emissions. In fact, according to the EPA, methane accounts for approximately 10% of all greenhouse gas emissions in the United States. So where do cows fit into this equation?
As the use of mRNA vaccines in livestock, unfortunately, becomes closer and closer to reality, many consumers and experts have expressed concerns about their safety. The potential negative impacts range from an unforeseen reaction to food products produced with mRNA vaccines - to disruption of ecosystems and biodiversity caused by its widespread usage. The debate surrounding the implications of using mRNA vaccines is ongoing, but it's clear that this technology raises important questions about resources, ethics, health, and sustainability. But how do we make sure these issues are addressed?
This year, we're taking our honesty to a whole new level - Radical Honesty...because it's time to stir up some much-needed change! From now on, we will cultivate meaningful connections, foster trust, and have honest conversations - no matter how difficult. We are done with the cutesy posts of mushrooms, logs, and grass swaying in the wind. It's time to be open and honest; we're not here to put on a show, we'd rather speak our truth. Like it or not, there is an important message that needs to be heard - and we're ready to put it all out there. Let’s start by getting real with ourselves: Food insecurity is real and we need to break the taboo of talking about FOOD.
Christmas is a time to celebrate family, unity, and joy. One of the best ways to show that is by coming together for family meals around the holidays.

Cooking with family can be an incredibly rewarding experience!
If you are anything like me, then you want to get back to the true meaning of Christmas, and ditch all the crazy consumerism surrounding the holidays. I like my holiday season the way I like my lifestyle…consumerism free, down to earth, and authentically connective. That is why I choose to ditch holiday consumerism and gift experience instead!
There is much debate in the farming and foodie community as to which breed of chicken produces the best meat. Some prefer hens that grow big and fast (like the Cornish Cross), while others prefer hens that are a more natural size, and have a nuanced and robust flavor (like our Freedom Rangers.) The chicken most commonly found in food stores, and even from other farms, is usually from a breed of chicken that has been bred to grow rapidly and produce large breast meat. Regenerative farmers like us are faced with a dilemma…How can we compete with the chicken sold in stores that are bigger and more affordable?
