HI! I am Linda Bradbury,
Everything is a beginning, right? As I remember my up bringing, the lessons bringing me to my development today in our food resources, I am excited to share with you what I have absorbed on my journey.
My parents were great advocates of mother nature as my father always mentioned.
We planted and harvested for the whole year. My father was the gardener, my mother the harvester. She taught me how important it was to sit under the old oak tree and chat as we broke beans, shucked corn, split pea pods and enjoyed each others company. Many joined us on our journey, and the bonus was eating the fresh harvest as we prepared the vegetables for canning.
I grew up in the city, however, we had a country setting. Always, we had a cow, dog, and possibly a horse or pony or two.
Our grocery trips were staples like, milk, bread, butter, juices and spices.
Oh, the kitchen was HOT, messy and full of love. As we devoured our meals through the year, you could feel her love, and we were HEALTHY children. I only remember being sick a few times in my life.
Once I was on my own, I thought buying goods in cans were the same as here canning. Later I learned there was so much wrong with that picture. I realized how often I struggled to stay above the wellness line.
Today, I am grateful for farmers who choose to bring us the healthier choices and I believe our world will be more focused on natural healing very soon, I am looking forward to living the way we were intended to live.
Thank you for joining me on this journey.
