Screw the planet no more! That means saying goodbye to some things.

ā€œScrew the planet.ā€ That’s what the farm staff sadly think when they pack certain products. You see, it really comes down to our reliance on conventional oil-based plastic. So, the Miller’s staff decided. This is enough! Over the next month, we will be discontinuing any product packed in non-compostable plastic that has the same size offered in glass.

You are not alone. You belong. Your choice is the right choice.

Miller’s Bio Farm hosted Farm Day last weekend. It was a wonderful day filled with eating excellent healthy food, connecting with like minded families, and getting to know the farm and farm staff and animals better. Although Farm Day was overwhelmingly positive, I had a few too many conversations with (non-Amish) people about feeling displaced, alone, and ostracized. What has our world come to!?

Why would you smoke it? No, I’m NOT talking about marijuana.

Cooking food with smoke (and no I’m NOT talking about marijuana) is the origin of barbecue. It is one of the oldest cooking methods, used in just about every culture around the world. There must be something to this! Miller’s certainly likes to keep things fun and interesting. This week, we’re introducing some seriously yummy new products - smoked beef sausages!

How to describe the many tastes and flavors of saving the earth

Happy belated Earth Day! Yes, you can help save the earth through food! Your food choices make a big impact! When you eat truly natural and pasture raised foods, you can taste the difference. The flavors are stronger, the textures are more pronounced. This is starkly different from the eerie consistency of conventional and industrialized food. Describing tastes and flavors can be a challenge. I know the struggle is real, because I hear it from customers all the time. Let’s see if I can provide some guidance on describing taste. Because discussing your yummy nutritious food with others is... well... fun.

It's not magic. How yogurt helps your body digest carbs.

Everyone’s gut is different. And, I’m not talking about what we can see. Rather, I’m talking about what we can’t see - the hundred trillion microorganisms that make our digestion (and more) happen. For reasons 100% proven but not 100% understood (as is too common in nature), the strains of bacteria in yogurt increase your body’s ability to digest complex carbohydrates!

How to cook moist and tender chicken breasts

I’ve too often eaten tough, dry chicken breasts. How about you? And it’s so disappointing when it happens. Because moist and tender chicken breasts are oh so delicious. Here are some tips for cooking chicken breasts right every time.

Is regenerative healthcare the solution? After all, food is medicine.

Although the United States is considered one of the wealthiest and most powerful countries, it’s certainly not the most healthy. As Wendell Berry famously said: ā€œPeople are fed by the food industry, which pays no attention to health, and are treated by the health industry, which pays no attention to food.ā€ This is what needs to change. THERE MAY BE A SOLUTION. And it’s called REGENERATIVE HEALTHCARE.

Day old chicks are vaccinated for what!? Well, thankfully not ours.

I was chatting with someone recently who casually mentioned to me how great buying day old chicks from a hatchery is, because they come to the farm already vaccinated. Wait. What!? This caught me by surprise… but it really shouldn’t have. I mean, we vaccinate day old human babies. Of course day old chicks are, too! I had to learn more.

Does humane treatment really mean what you think it does?

Being ā€œhumaneā€ means that humans have compassion, sympathy, and consideration for their treatment of animals. Especially given the awful state of modern conventional farming, this is really really important!!! You may have seen the ā€œcertified humaneā€ label on products. On a broad stroke basis, Miller’s Bio Farm checks all the boxes to be certified humane. But, when you get into the nitty gritty details, Miller’s only fits in with 99% of the requirements. We don’t want to be held back… even 1%.
