We as Americans allow others to do our food planning for us and to provide the food we need during the winter months. Is that wise? For as long as many of us can remember, one has been able to go to the grocery store every week during the winter and find it full of [...]

As I looked at the old agriculture book, I found a comment about greasy pastures being the ideal. I had never heard of greasy pastures before. Why would anyone want greasy or oily pastures? Why would the best agricultural book, the Bible, say that greasy pastures were ideal? I had never heard of greasy pastures [...]

Over the past number of years we have changed the type of foods that we eat as a family. We used to try to buy the cheapest food, thinking that nutritionally, all food was basically the same. That is probably more true than what most realize if you are talking about grocery store food. However, [...]
In recent years archaeologists in South America discovered plots of ground, called Terra Preta soils, that are amazingly fertile and productive. What is more amazing is that these plots of ground were manmade by the Inca Indians before Columbus discovered the Americas. Despite being in the rainforest where soils are depleted rapidly, these plots of [...]
Many of you know the story of how God provided this farm for us, but the story and God’s provision doesn’t end there. This spring God provided this 2000 Chevy Astro van for our egg delivery van for free! Our old delivery van had 275,000 miles on it and the transmission went out. It was [...]

One of the things that we have learned from Carey Reams and RBTI (Reams Biological Theory of Ionization) is the importance of colloidal minerals and calcium for plants, humans and animals. Last year we changed our mineral supplement that we [...]

By her appearance she was obviously not well. She was riding in one of the electric shopping carts that Wal-Mart provides for customers who [...]

Last spring we gave our children a challenge – for every bird house that they put up that had a nest in it we would give them $1. The project was a success. We put up a total of 34 bird houses around the farm, and 21 had at least one nest built in them. [...]

For the last 17 years our family has used wood as our primary heating source. Not only is firewood a local, renewable energy source, it is also a relatively clean fuel. That seems surprising when you see the smoke going out of the chimney. However, there is something that has to be taken into consideration. [...]

There is another crisis that I feel I should let you know about so that you can prepare if it should become a bigger problem. All around the world, goods are sitting on docks waiting to be shipped by boat, but the companies buying the products are not able to get financing to pay for [...]
