To all the lovely Weston A Priceys...I have just created a discussion for when you:

 a)have something to trade or share, or b) are wanting to find out if there is any in your area.

Please use this instead of the main comment wall, as its easier to have all the trading in one place. THanks muchly : )

Enjoying delicious bone broths every week. they just taste soooo good! am using them for everything, soups, currys, by themselves. Put meat bones in the crock pot, cover with cold water, add some vinegar and seasoning and leave for up to 2-3 days.....have been eating alot of local goat too and its pretty good! Most of my bone broths are shoulder meat, neck and also marrow bones - marow bones are the best!!

Hi everyone...

I'm just beginning the Nourishing Traditions journey and am looking for a source of raw milk around the Bombay Hills area, preferably from the farm gate.

 

I found this great website, but the closest farm selling cow's milk is in Matamata...

Does any one have any other ideas? I'm possibly interested in starting or joining a milk club.

 

Thanks

WOW

Both the milk and water kefir grains are doing their thing - wonderful stuff!!!

 

I have a  friend who has a child who has Cerebal Palsy, and she is trying to change the child onto a more natural diet.  All her efforts are being undone by the pressure being put on her by the hospital to feed her child a pre-made drink. 

 

Unfortunatly the child throws the concoction up, and loses weight quickly when on the muck the hospital is trying to force her to use, however when she eats real food (pureed till very smooth) she shows such incredible improvement!  It always surprises me how the 'experts' can get it so wrong...

OOh Lisa!!!

 

I would be most intersted in both milk and water kefir grains.  I've not tried caspian sea yogurt - is it very tangy?

lol - I just made liver for supper tonight - soaked it in lemon juice and water for a few hours, then 'floured' it with an equal combination of coconut flour and buckwheat flour, then added some herbs and gently fried it in coconut/olive/sesame oil.

Totally delish with fresh veg!!

 

My Teens love it!!  They also love my steak and kidney pie, and meatloaf made with ground steak and heart...

WE do eat liver from time to time.. I find I slice thinly, flour it and fry quickly. few fresh herbs can be added to the pan to release the aromatics and flavour the liver faintly.

Hi - I have a surplus of water kefir grains, milk kefir grains and a kombucha mother. Am wondering if anyone would be interested in doing a swap for some caspian sea yoghurt...? I'm located in Christchurch.
