Supply and demand. When we support locally grown foods and those from small family farms who follow traditional farming techniques like pasture farming, we are improving the quality of foods that we have available to us. More and more people are turning to these foods to support optimal health.
Foods raised with traditional methods, such as dairy, eggs, meat and poultry from pastured animals have far more nutrients than foods from factory farms. Pasturing animals is also an ecologically sound system that puts nutrients back into the soil without polluting the earth from either fertilizers or the trucks that transport corn and cattle to factory farm systems.
Since your health is your wealth, by purchasing foods with the highest nutrients from farms that value the health of their animals, the earth and you, we can insure our choice of foods in the future.
See www.westonaprice.org and realmilk.com for sources of pasture-raised foods.

Best in health,
