Our Food - What are we puting in our bodies

Our City Farm   -   Dec 16, 2010 - By Jeri

I started growing foods after our 3rd child was diagnosed with food allergies. That's 3 out of 3! The 1st one has allergies too numerous to list here, the second on has 3 food allergies, which I think was greatly reduced due to eliminating certain common...

Feeding Hogs Something Other Than Corn

Spring Hill Farms   -   Dec 14, 2010 - By David_8

Tamworth Pig If you've read many of my posts you know I love old books on farming and especially pigs. I have a pretty good collection dating back as far as 1883. I've bid on books on some auction sites older than that but they end up being...
