We are making great strides to get our meals back to unprocessed, natural, and healthier meals. We have many steps to make yet, but have gained over the last year.
Tonight we are roasting two chickens we raised ourselves for meat, along with garden grown potatoes, and onion. Soon we can add our carrots, but they are not up yet. For a side, I picked a bowl full of green and wax beans. I can season all of the food with herbs for the garden.
It feels so liberating to know I can feed my family without buying something from the store. Although I know that stores need support, there is a limit to what we buy. Anyone can sell anything to make a buck, but it's the buyer who needs to be alert and conscience when choosing what to buy.
While weeding the beets, carrots, more green beans and zucchini, I noticed we have a 3 inch zucchini already growing. It will add to the meals, and desserts, nicely.
Good for you, that's food security! Now if I can just get moved to a rural area I could do that too!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful feeling to be able to feed your family with food you grew/raised yourself! :)
