A few years back my wife was getting sick from everything she ate. We switched to all organic and found out it didn't help much at all. We had to take drastic measures just so she could get out of bed, so we started researching what would cause her issues. We were determined to try to find the issue. After doctor visits and countless hours on different diets we finally found some light at the end of the tunnel! We eliminated most food from her diet, and I mean everything but rice, and then slowly introduced different foods back in our normal routine using the GAPS diet method. We narrowed it down to commercial meat (mainly chicken) and dairy. We talked with a few people and they recommend we try farm fresh raw goat or cow milk. We were skeptical and a bit scared to drink milk again once we figured out the issue. Loving milk as much as we do, we decided to try a small amount of raw goat milk since it's known to be gentle on your digestive system. To our amazement she didn't have a reaction. After a few weeks of drinking raw goat milk, we felt safe she could consume dairy once again!!
On a follow up doctor visit from being sick and depleted in vitamins and minerals, the nurse asked if we took the supplements they recommend. We forgot to take them so she said then your test results won’t be any different than last visit. She ran some tests and my wife's vitamin and mineral numbers were the best they have been in many years. The nurse said what did you do different? She replied with nothing but drinking raw goat’s milk. The nurse said, "Seriously, that's all you did?" with a "I don't buy it" look on her face. The raw goat milk has helped our family enjoy dairy once again and we even found more health benefits from it. Our kids stopped having nightmares, ear wax build up, and stuffy noses. Some of our friends said their kids stopped bed wetting once they stopped giving commercial dairy to their kids , and yes, this even means ice-cream. I know, so sad!
Since we thought dairy was the issue, we resumed life as normal until we had some grocery store organic chicken. The pain my wife once had, came back after one meal and put her back in bed with severe pain. By God’s grace we came across a Virginia chicken farmer named Joel Salatin who has written books, given many speeches, and stared in food documentaries on today’s food quality. Through his books we learned that it’s not the food that is the biggest culprit but how animals are raised and handled. We just had to visit his farm and try his products. Once we did, we found them to be the most delicious chicken and beef we had ever had and we had zero reactions to any of it!!
Living in an area where it’s not easy to come by pasture raised chicken and beef, we decided to leave our old life behind, buy some land and take up the model that Joel has pioneered so we can educate and feed the world better quality food.
After what we have witnessed firsthand, we want to provide you with the highest quality food that our family enjoys because we are passionate about heling people through great quality food. We are living proof that this food is the best for you!
Here’s to your health!
