Mindful Eating

Consuming high-quality, nutrient-dense food is a critical component of maintaining good health. The food supply has increasingly faced challenges and most of the food at supermarkets leaves more to be desired. We believe connecting with your local farmers allows you to procure better quality food for your family. We encourage you to shorten the supply chain and support local farms. 

Here are some recommendations:

Pleasant Pastures, purchased through FarmMatch, is a favorite among our members. They carry raw A2 milk, Einkorn flour, grass-fed & grass-finished beef, organ meat and much, much more! Raw milk contains beneficial bacteria, or probiotics, that support gut health and immune function.

Fresh, stone-ground flour. Commercially processed flours often undergo refining processes that remove some of the nutrients, whereas freshly ground flour contains the entire grain kernel, preserving its nutritional value. Locke’s Mill carries ancient grains such as Kamut which is naturally high in protein and low in gluten. Kamut has gained popularity in recent years due to its unique nutritional profile and anti-inflammatory properties. It’s also easier to digest than most flours.

28-day premium dry-aged Hereford beef, Grass-fed & Barley & Grass Finished, No Hormones, No Antibiotics, No Ionophores. Delivered to your doorstep.

Cottonwood Ranch cattle graze on natural grasses and are supplemented with protein-rich beer mash from local breweries. This nutritious by-product adds healthy enzymes and enhances the beef's flavor and marbling.
