| Introduction | I WAS A SEMI DRIVER FOR OVER 18 YR'S CAME BACK TO THE FAMILY HOME IN 2002 THAT MY MOMS FOLKS BOUGHT IN 1944 HAVE CLOSE TO 11 ACRES OF THE OVER 70 ORIGINAL ACRES, STILL IN THE SAME HOME BUILT IN 1810 & Am TRYING TO FARM TO BE HOME TO HELP KEEP THE FARM AS WELL AS MAKE A LIVING. THESE ARE JUST SOME OF WHAT I AM AIMING TO GET DONE HERE ON THE FARM: GO ALTERNATIVE ENERGY OFF THE GRID, ONE LARGER BETTER CHICKEN HOUSE. SOME SHORT SIMPLE THOUGHTS: EVERYONE NEEDS TO WAKE UP AND SPEAK UP - KEEP THE GOVERNMENTS-GMO-CHEMICAL-FACTORY FARMING FROM MAKING LAWS TO SHUT DOWN SMALL FAMILY FARMING, BE WILLING TO SPEND AS MUCH ON HEALTHY-LOCAL FOOD AS EXTRA ACTIVITIES, LEARN TO EAT MORE OF THE LOCAL FOODS, LEARN TO PUT UP FOR THE OFF SEASONS, MAKE THE EFFORT TO WORK MORE TOGETHER AS A FAMILY & A NEIGHBOR. THEIR ARE MANY NATIVE PLANTS & PARTS OF PLANTS WE NEVER EVEN THINK OF AS BEING EATEN THAT ARE GOOD TO EAT & GOOD FOR YOU - I HAVE LEARNED OF MANY THROUGH ALL THE MANY CUSTOMERS I HAVE MET. |
| Interests | Sustainable, organic farming TRY TO CONNECT WITH PEOPLE HELP THEM LEARN THERE IS MORE TO GOOD FOOD THEN JUST THE NAME ORGANIC - HEALTHY SOIL MAKES HEALTHY PLANTS-HEALTHY PRODUCE WHICH MAKES FOR HEALTHY PEOPLE AND ALL LIFE. HOPE PEOPLE WILL LEARN HOW IMPORTANT GOOD FOOD AND LEARNING TO STORE AND USE MORE LOCAL FOODS ARE AS WELL AS THAT IT TAKES NO LONGER TO COOK AND PUT UP FRESH PRODUCE THEN TO KEEP RUNNING OUT TO EAT OR BUYING PRE-PACKED MEALS. DOING YOUR OWN FRESH CAN SAVE MONEY, IN FOOD AND HEALTH COST. |
If mud is dirt plus water, what is clay?
THIS IS A QUESTION THAT WANTS ME TO RESEARCH -- I THINK OF IT AS A TYPE OF DIRT, SOIL.
