Guest guest Posted December 7, 2001 Report Share Posted December 7, 2001 I can't believe how much finding the www.westonaprice.org website has changed my life. There are so many ways, it is hard to name them all. First and foremost is the incredible health benefits that my family has gained in trying to implement a lot of the info. I have no doubt that a very large part of my daughters continuous journey out of autism is due to the diet info from the website and info from _Noutishing Traditions_. One of the biggest ways in which our lives have changed due to this info was finalized this weekend. A dream grew out of our ever growing frustration to find foods that would actually nourish our family and not harm them. We decided that the only way to be able to really do this fully would be to have a farm of our own. Out of this realization came an incredible thirst to learn of the homesteading and farming lifestyle, and all that it entails. We have been soaking up all of the info we could through books and online for about 1 1/2 years now. We had a 5 yr plan to be able to buy the farm that we wanted without mortgaging ourselves into oblivion. Fortunately, God had different plans. He literally threw into our laps the opportunity to start a CSA in Northern Kentucky on 72 acres of some of God's most beautiful earth. We finalized the deal this weekend when my husband was offered and accepted a job in the area (which he will work until we are making enough from the CSA for him to be home full time). The land is coming with a huge barn, 11 pastured Nubian goats, 40 free range chickens, 3 roosters, a bunny, about 11 barn cats, a greenhouse, a root cellar, lots of little outbuildings, a HUGE garden space, TONS of pasture and cropland and about 20 acres of woods, as well as use of the farm equipment (tractor, hay bailer etc) that the people we are getting the land from will no longer have use for. We will be getting a Jersey cow or two in the spring for starters as well. Needless to say, we are overjoyed with excitement here, and a bit overwhelmed as well, as we had thought we had at least 5 more years to do research etc, and now here we are going into this and getting our feet wet VERY quickly! Anyway, I just wanted to thank Sally (and ) for all of her hard work in going against the grain and getting this info out there. You have made the world a better place to be, at least for this one family, and we want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts. rochester@... ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Click here for the best diet and nutrition information you will ever find! www.westonaprice.org ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* " They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.
