Hey it's Ben from Nature's Gourmet Farm –

As we come to the close of 2017 we often reflect on our accomplishments as well as the things we are most thankful for.

I'm very thankful for Beth and her love, support (and work) on the farm. For almost 37 years she has been by my side - never complaining about relocating for my job, the many times I was travelling with work and or military, and now with her care for the hens and egg business.

I'm grateful to my parents for instilling within me a strong work ethic. 

And, I'm thankful for my sons who have helped build the farm infastructure - and for those who have mentored me the past 5 years in regenerative soil health and the importance of healthy meat & eggs.

We are blessed for the opportunity to live our purpose and passions each day!

And I'm grateful for all of YOU who support our farm's mission with your food dollars.

Customer Feedback-

Quote Worth Re-Quoting –  "“In other words, carbs can be seen as a far dirtier fuel than fats. When you adopt a high-fat, low-carb diet and make the switch to burning fat and ketones for fuel instead of glucose, your mitochondria’s exposure to oxidative damage drops by as much as 30 to 40 percent compared to when your primary source of fuel is sugar, as is typical in American diets today. This means that when you are “fat adapted”—that is, when you have made the transition to burning fat for fuel—your mitochondrial DNA, cell membranes, and protein can remain stronger, healthier, and more resilient. In order” ― Joseph MercolaFat for Fuel: A Revolutionary Diet to Combat Cancer, Boost Brain Power, and Increase Your Energy

As always, thank you for supporting our regenerative, local farm.

It's A Wonderful Life

It's A Wonderful Life – many families have the tradition of watching "It's A Wonderful Life" staring Jimmy Stewart & Donna Reed by author Philip Van Doren Stern from his 1938 Christmas Tale originally titled "The Greatest Gift." RKO Radio pictures purchased his property who later sold it to Liberty Films. Frank Capra, as producer & director, developed the property for a movie and retitled "It's A Wonderful Life" with its debut in 1946. According to a Paul Harvey - The Rest Of The Story, the movie did not become popular until the 1970's because

Emotional Week = Short Newsletter

Difficult Week – About six weeks ago Beth’s mom Jackie found out her cancer had returned. Her condition worsened very fast and she passed away early Tuesday morning. Beth had been staying with her most of the last two weeks. Her funeral was Friday morning. Working with our team we were able to process chicken Tuesday & Wednesday mornings and post inventory. We also processed 8 pigs the afternoon of those two days and posted the fresh pork items. I want to express how much we appreciate our team who stepped up and did extra to support our farm and lessen the burden on Beth.

My Customer Response

Food deserts are regions where people have limited access to healthful and affordable food. This may be due to having a low income or having to travel farther to find healthful food options. Without access to healthful foods, people living in food deserts may be at higher risk of diet-related conditions, such as obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and micro-nutrient deficiencies. Medical News Today I would offer additional considerations to include: 1. In 2016 a study was made that determined MS imports $8.5 billion dollars worth of food. That was more than a billion greater than farm commodity crops generated in sales that year.
