And the fiber lady - how exciting! <br /><br />I am excited to eventually move our family to someplace where more people "get it", but in the meantime, things seem to be improving here slowly as well! We finally have a local company growing hydroponic lettuce, and a local farm growing organic herbs, but that's the only organic produce grown locally. I hope it catches on!melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16698231692999838673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5940873091332056460.post-10939441750731587262011-03-16T09:38:17.558-04:002011-03-16T09:38:17.558-04:00I think we would definitely starve if I tried to f...I think we would definitely starve if I tried to feed our family from home grown produce. I too have noticed a rise in the frequency of farmers markets popping up in our local area, so I'll have to check them out. <br /><br />I doubt I'd find a fiber lady(complete with goats) in Liverpool, but I'll let you know.Carahttp://www.frecklesfamily.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5940873091332056460.post-41021637099142838882011-03-15T20:38:27.830-04:002011-03-15T20:38:27.830-04:00MJ, I think more and more people are starting to ...MJ, I think more and more people are starting to 'get it' around here too. I love our little market and am so thankful for how it complements our own efforts. <br /><br />Animal, Vegetable, Miracle was a turning point for me too. I read it as we hoped by the old farmhouse and waited and waited to sell our city home. I think I dreamed of gardens every night! : )<br /><br />The fiber lady program sounds fantastic!

There is one set up by Whole Paycheck and another town one which is very small.

I don't think I've seen one as good as that here.<br /><br />We have a veg box delievered each week and find it a great way of eating less (but better sourced) meat and doing more interesting things with vegetables. Although I'm a little bored of the veg curry that we've eaten for three nights ! xPinkCatJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12323032970862942723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5940873091332056460.post-17395489209573458242011-03-15T09:14:04.782-04:002011-03-15T09:14:04.782-04:00I just read in our paper where three more farmer&#...I just read in our paper where three more farmer's market have opened in our town. Our area is starting to get it too! I put up most of our food that we produce on our land. Even though I don't eat meat my family does, so my husband and sons hunt and fish, crab and shrimp and crawfish. I have been trying to find a good<br />milk cow, but that is turning out to be harder than I thought. I will keep looking as I know somewhere 'Olive' the cow is waiting for me.<br />Warmly,<br />TraceyTracey ~ Cloverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11575854515384481573noreply@blogger.com
