Why biodiversity is important to us

I watched the Netflix documentary What’s with Wheat the other day. It’s about how grain’s omnipresence in modern America has created a health crisis. Since you are already a Miller’s Bio customer, I may be preaching to the choir here. However, one part of the documentary really stuck out to me. The film explained how the best diet for humans to follow is the one they were eating about 150 years ago, just before the industrial revolution. It was a time when people thrived on biodiversity!

What's a whole fryer chicken?

I’ve been buying whole fryers chickens from the farm for quite some time. I mean, at $5.50/lb for a pastured chemical-free soy-free chicken, it’s a pretty good deal. I’ve always wondered, why are they called whole “fryers” chickens? So, I decided that it’s time to do some research.

Better Never Than Late

We all know it. There are just some people that are chronically late. This doesn’t mean they are bad people. In fact, I believe that late people often have a lot going for them. They are usually optimistic and hopeful. They believe they can fit many, many tasks into a short period of time. They think big and don’t sweat the small stuff. And, they typically just enjoy life and take opportunities to stop and smell the roses. Late people, I get you.

Healthy Grass Makes Healthy Cows Make Healthy Milk

I had the pleasure of visiting the farm this week and was astounded at how much I learned about our cows and grass. As you know, our cows eat grass. During the warmer months, the grass that they eat is not only green but also fully grown. The farmer moves the cows to a new paddock 3x per day. They waddle into a waste high field of green and begin chowing down.

Tradition and Trend

My mother makes the best pot roast, and I wanted to try to replicate it for my children. So, I called my mom and asked her for the recipe. She started to explain, “First you take the roast, and you cut it in half and put it in the pan...” I interrupted, “But, wait, why do you cut it in half?” My mom told me that she got the recipe from my grandmother, and I should ask her. So, I called my grandmother.
