Resources
Last updated: 12-Jul-10 12:35
Caring for God's Creation and caring for our bodies which are His temple are important to our family. We are continually learning about how to improve our farming practices and our family's nutrition and health. Many wonderful resources exist and we invite you to carefully research your food choices. Here are some of our favorites. We do not necessarily endorse all the views of these resources, but have found them to be thought provoking and helpful in our food & health choices [links will open in a new window].
