Gosh, I read everything you write at the Booth and I still didn't realize. You've been one busy girl!
That's awesome. I especially like the lawn mowing photo.
So what did you think of the organic chicken farm? Was it still too industrialized, or do you think it's better than regular so therefore acceptable. I'm just reading Omnivores Dilemma, and was thinking that those chickens looked mighty close together.
Jen, I was a bit taken back by the number of chickens inside that coop. 2,700!!! That seems like a lot to me. They do have windows, but they are small and a pasture, but they don't use it. I think it's better that they are fed organic; however, knowing what I do now, I will try to buy my eggs more often directly from the local farmer that has free-range chickens and more eggs than he knows what to do with. Every time I see or read something it makes me want to grow/raise my own. It's the only way to really know.
The taste of fresh organic farm goods is always the best rather than the factory foods. I love this post it has lots of information about healthy organic foods. Thanks for posting.
This is great! Count me in on this rally “save organic farms. You got my support on this.
This is a humongus post. So much going on. It would be much easier to follow if you chopped it up into smaller ones.
But I love the clean car stuff.
