Are
you new to whole and
traditional foods or to
"Nourishing
Traditions"? Have
you just gone
gluten/dairy-free and
dont know what to
eat?
The
menu mailer covers 6
dinners (including side
dishes) and one dessert
every week. It
contains a full menu,
shopping list, a
preparation plan, and
serving suggestions for
each meal. Tips and
information are included
in every mailer as well.
What
makes the Cooking
Traditional Foods menu
mailer unique? A
preparation schedule is
included with every menu
mailer. It reminds
you when to thaw the
meat, prep the crock-pot,
make the stock or soak
the grains. Because
lack of planning is a
major hurdle in getting
healthy meals on the
table, this schedule
helps you make sure
everything is done.
It also contains
blanks so you can write
in your own reminders for
breakfast, snacks and
lunches.
Biblical
Womanhood began in
2005 as a ministry to
encourage and equip women
and young women. Through
our bookstore, articles,
newsletter, and blog, we
desire to promote
femininity and build up
women as they embrace
their Biblical callings.
In this humanistic,
feministic culture, we
want to be a breath of
fresh air to women
seeking after something
greater than what the
world has to offer - to
glorify the Lord in all
they do, say, and think!

This is a post from a year or more back. I'm reposting it because with the shortages of foods in some areas and the fact that people are stocking up on staple items because of it, I thought it was a good reminder that nearly everyone can grow at least some of their own food. If there's a will, there's a way! Hopefully these ideas will help you find a way to have a vegetable garden that will work for you!~ Susan
Earlier this week, we found lettuce, cabbage, kale, lettuce, broccoli and brussels sprout plants at Wal-Mart. Hopefully this weekend, we'll go pick up some of each to plant this weekend. I really love this time of the year and getting our gardens ready for spring. Every year, we add more and more garden space and someday hope to raise all of our vegetables that we need for the year. We really enjoy eating the veggies fresh, in season. What we can't eat, we either can or freeze for the months when we can't really grow much. This way we are assured that the food we're eating is of the highest quality. We don't have to worry about pesticides and GMOs.
Nearly everyone can grow a garden, even apartment dwellers can do container gardens. I have a friend who grow tomatoes and green beans on the balcony of her apartment. There are many ways that you can garden if you don't have the room yourself. Do you have a friend with a large backyard? Grow a garden there and split the work and the harvest! Does your apartment building have a small plot of land big enough for a garden? Ask your building supervisor if you can use it to grow a garden or ask them if they can provide a plot of land on the property that you and your neighbors can grow a community garden.
Even if you have a small yard, you can do gardens in your flower beds. Plant lettuce around a shady tree, put tomato plants or pole beans in large terra cotta pots, fill window boxes with fresh herbs, there are so many ways you can work in vegetables into your landscaping. Place a lattice against a wall and plant climbing veggies underneath it. This doesn't take up a lot of room and there are lots of veggies you can plant like that. Where there's a will there's a way! With a little creativity, you can grow your own veggies where ever you live.
For us, growing what we can, saves us money and allows us to spend that money we save on veggies to purchase better foods for our family. We save between $20 - $30 per week by growing our own veggies, and this allows us to buy the more expensive organic and grass fed products that are better for us. A little planning can help you save money, improve your family's health and provide better food for your family.
