The farm's new coronavirus safety policies

As you undoubtedly know, the coronavirus pandemic is affecting people everywhere. At this time more than ever, farmer Aaron’s job is really important. He’s a source of local, nutrient-dense food that can help boost your body’s natural strengths. Farmer Aaron is taking the current coronavirus seriously and is implementing additional safety policies on the farm.

Fermented foods make a healthy gut and a healthy brain

I went to a seminar about childhood anxiety this week. The second half was presented by a wonderful osteopathic doctor who spoke about how your gut talks to your brain. It’s quite amazing. The foods we eat and how we treat our digestive system have a direct link to the health of our brain.

Come see an awesome speaker at the Meet the Farmer event

Every year, farmer Aaron hosts a Meet the Farmer event. It’s a chance for you to try some yummy farm food, meet like minded farm customers, hear a talk by an expert, and get to know your farm a bit better. Meet the Farmer 2020 will be on Saturday, March 28 from 12-4pm in Boonton, NJ.

A fresh perspective on the raw milk movement

A highlight of the conference was hearing Mark McAfee, founder of the Raw Milk Institute (RAWMI) and Organic Pastures in California, speak about the safety and quality of raw milk. It was a boost of confidence for Aaron, confirming that he’s holding his farm to the highest possible standards.

Where and how the A2 cheese is made

I was honored to visit our artisanal cheesemaker - Alpine Heritage Creamery - in December. This is where farmer Aaron sends his milk to be made into cheese. I got a tour of the facilities and had a long conversation with one of the employees. I love learning about where and how my food is made, and I know you do, too. So here’s the scoop on the cheese and the cheesemaker.

Why egg inventory can be a challenge

As you may have noticed, our soy-free eggs are out of stock. And this is so very sad for us. Our soy-free eggs are one of our best selling products, and many of our customers rely on us for eggs. We never like taking nutritious and delicious foods off the menu, and we certainly do not like letting our customers down. You may be wondering why the eggs are out of stock. I mean, they’re basically always available. Let me try to explain.

What it means to be a FAMILY farm

Miller’s Biodiversity Farm is a family farm. It’s run by Aaron and his wife Rebecca… with an increasing amount of help from their five young children. As far as farms go, it’s a very small operation, operating on about 50 acres in Lancaster County, PA. But that doesn’t mean there isn’t a lot of work to do. There’s a lot of work to do, and everyone pitches in!

The inside scoop on one of the meat processors

Have you seen the videos exposing terrible meat processing plants? I have, and they’re pretty terrifying and nauseating. So, when I visited Aaron, the farmer, a few weeks ago, I was excited and a bit terrified when he offered to take me to visit one of his meat processors - Belmont Meats. We were going because I had a car, and Aaron needed to pick up some of his newly processed meat for product pics. When I got there, my first reaction was, “This is it!?”
