Our beliefs may vary, but we have a common cause - real ethical food!

There was a huge response to last week's newsletter and BLOG POST ABOUT METHANE AND COWS. A grand majority was overwhelmingly positive and thankful for the info. But, there were a few that took serious issue with the fact that the farm was acknowledging that people believe in climate change.

This shed light on what, to me, is the bigger issue here - polarization of thought. In my opinion, this is the real threat in the world. If we can't talk about tough issues, if we can't respect and try to understand another person's beliefs, then how can we move forward together?

This led me to do some very basic and random research, which I found fascinating. Take a look at these various poll results from the last few years in the US:

Wow, our country sure is diverse and ever changing!!!

At Miller's Bio Farm, we accept you all wherever you're at. We don't provide nourishing food and valuable info to only one kind of person. We don't believe one person is right, and the other is wrong. We believe in providing you with info and opinions and letting you decide what's right for you.

That being said...

There's one big thing that everyone who reads these emails and buys food from Miller's Bio Farm has in common: We all support real ethical food!

Now that is beautiful.

Some people do it because they're trying counteract climate change, some people because it aligns with their beliefs (religious, philosophical, or scientific), some people because of their specific diet, and some people because of their political affiliation. No matter the reasons, Miller's Bio Farm supports you.

That is the beauty of diversity. Everyone can have differing beliefs and still rally around a common cause. 

What do you think? Do you engage in challenging conversations? How are at accepting of different beliefs?

Cheap beef is coming to the US, but where is it actually coming from?

Beef is more expensive than it's ever been, and the government's answer is to flood the market with hundreds of millions of pounds of imported beef. But "cheaper" comes with a question no price tag will answer: where did this beef actually come from? Here's what's really driving prices, why importing won't fix it, and how to put beef on your table that you can trace to a single pasture.

Why your milk should be a little yellow and what it has to do with your eyes

Pour our raw milk next to the grocery store stuff and you'll spot it immediately: ours is golden. That color isn't food dye or a fluke, it's lutein and zeaxanthin, two carotenoids your eyes depend on and your body can't make on its own. So we sent both milks to a third-party lab at Utah State. The store-bought grass-fed milk came back with zero lutein. Not less. None. In this post, we get into where that pigment comes from, why heat and skimming wipe it out, and how to check your own cream line at the kitchen window.

We sent our grass-fed raw milk to a university lab. Here's how it compared.

We've always believed that real food should be able to stand on its own, no marketing fluff required. So this spring, we did something we find deeply satisfying: we sent our milk to an independent lab and asked them to tell us exactly what's in it. Not just our milk, either. We tested three milks side by side, ours, a grain-supplemented raw A2/A2 milk from another farm, and one of the most widely available organic pasteurized milks on the market. We wanted an honest picture, and that's exactly what we got.
