Good morning from the mountain, another has dawned on the mountain. Yesterday I started liquidating the chickens
from the farm, and will continue until I have the number I need just for us as
a family. I have come to the conclusion
that eBay is not a venue to sell eggs.
As I am saying this I have sold another dozen eggs on their which will
be shipped out tomorrow, it may be the last one I ever ship from eBay. I cannot tell you how it pains me that they
are so vile to their sellers; I can say I will no longer allow them to do it to
me.
When the last birds go it concludes the ending of my dream
to help others to have poultry which I am sure was about to end anyway as America
is very much against small family farms and healthy eating. It is so bad here that people in many states
are still being arrested for purchasing and drinking rare milk. They have also been arrested for capturing
water from the sky. Farms like mine that
want to stay organic are often targets of either the carelessness of other or
there outright hate. This has not of
course always been the case, as America was founded on farming. Today farming is most often looked down upon
and dirt farmers as people like myself and my family are often called is a key
to understanding what went wrong and preventing it from happing in your own
country.
There was a day when farming was a noble art, held in the
same place as the person creating a painting or stature, perhaps even a jewelry
artist, but alas that was in the time before factory farms. Factory farms are farms whereas the name implies
food is grown in a factory like way. Large
farms grow hundreds of thousand or even millions of pounds of food, but one
must ask, what is the manor of food being produced is. It is not quality, which is often sacrificed for
the quality.
A small farm organic from like mine know the food from the
seed up, we do not use GMO seed, because we do not need too. We have seed that
has been used for centuries and some longer that has served us well. We remember events such as the potato famine
and chose not to be mono farmers for just that reason. Our food gets its
nutrients from the ground and century old techniques of adding dung from the
farm animals back to the soil to keep it healthy. We also add kelp to the soil and we do not
till the ground. In America many years
before I was born, there was a time in history called the dust bowl, theis was
caused in part by over tilling the land, and mono cropping, the people starved
and the soil in many placed blew upon the air from the middle of this country
all the way to the coasts, it took a long time to recover and some places never
did.
It is a good thing to learn from one’s mistakes, and chose
happily not to repeat them.That is why
companies who grow food on huge parcels of land, blighting the soil, making the
ground toxic and stripping it of nutrients until they must pour thousands and
hundreds of thousands of pounds of chemicals upon the land, just to raise their
crops and America went from a chicken in ever pot, to chicken like
products. The value of the food is compromised
and we happily send this food out to the entire world, all while knowing there
is a problem. Much of the food these factories
grow is GMO food, which should be rejected by everyone, it is unwholesome and unholy,
I get a bit of a rummy feeling just thinking about it. I am sure that at one point people meant
well, but it has become about money and nothing more. Where money is king, there are no morals and
cheap becomes deadly.
Our country had protection in place to protect us from this
sort of thing, but I fear money has won out here as well. Instead, they protect us from fresh,
wholesome food. As an example I was on a
website describing some lovely French cheese, four different types that are aged
less than 90 days and all illegal in the US. They claim it is because of possible contamination
that these cheeses are not allowed to be made here in the states. Honestly I do not think it is to protect us,
but to control what we eat. Fresh cheese
bread and fruit is the morning staple in many countries that have not fallen to
the American standard. How can it be
that even McDonalds and their selling of expired food in countries makes little
news, but a person making and selling fresh food makes the press and loses
their farm, it happened a few years ago here in Missouri. An organically certified dairy had their whole
plant seized, and their entire product destroyed on just the threat of listeria
contamination. Mcdonald'S has no
punishment for selling bad food; one has money one is poor. If I mixed old meat with new, they would
through me in jail. That is the problem,
we are trusting the wrong people; we are not trusting the ones who do what they
do out of love, who eat from their farms. Instead we are trusting the ones making
billions of dollars are year from us, using the FDA against us in a war that is
fought in some form in America every minute of every day. I am not sure how many people watch the “SIMPSONS”,
but in the cartoon there is a character called “KRUSTY THE CLOWN," this character
owns a chain, called Krusty Burgers. It
is much like the McDonlad’s or Burger King in many ways, mostly the food. Anyway he does a commercial in which he bites
into a Krusty burger and almost swallows it, and screams about it. The kind of Oh G-d I almost swallowed it…This
joke may not be too far from the truth.

| Anyone have time to help redo the wood cook stove? |
The
president has an organic garden; his is protected, but not the people.
So farms like mine are just in the way of the global
conquest of food domination, a world where we will all eat what they tell us too,
and no one will have the right to keep seed from generation to generation. There will be one tomato, and it will taste
like the air, one granny potato, yellow rice, diseased animals will be sold as
food with the bad parts cutoff and everyone will be fine with it. The bread will be full of fillers, the milk
having added chemical sweeteners to cover the taste of blood and puss, there
will be only food like food items and no longer wholesome food. That is where we are all heading.
With that said, and before it becomes illegal to have a
garden I must go out and work on ours. I
will try to get back on here later with new puppy photos and whatever else
happens between now and then. Plus those
carrots will not pickle themselves….lol
Be Blessed
