Yeah, this is a great story. Thanks so much for sharing your journey of discovery.
I also read "Four season Harvest", by Eliot Coleman a few years ago and got me on the winter gardening kick. I couldn't believe how well some greens made it through such cold weather, using simple row cover fabric. This year, I may make small hoop...
A group for anyone into gardening or growing their own food
I just did a bunch of research on iron last night. Found out a few important things, some of which have been touched on in this thread already.
First, when eating foods for iron, always include high levels of vitamin C to assist absorption.
Also,...
Hi Johnnie,..... Great name!

Oh, by the way,
If you pick all those larger green tomatoes next year and bring them in before the first frost, individually wrap them in a piece of newspaper and store them in a cool place, they will all ripen up over the next month or two, incre...
Pontus,
I don't watch those types of videos very much, but I do know a little about that kind of conspiracy thinking. I don't give it any energy. I don't have any personal proof that it is true or untrue. But I do know one thing that is true. And ...
Oh, sorry, not bacteria like flu, virus! like flu. you get the point.
Profile Information
- About Me:
- I took an interest in raw in 1979 after reading Kulvinskas's book "Survival into the 21st Century". I was actually in India on a spiritual pilgrimage when a fellow traveler told me about raw food and suggested I read the book. With no support, no idea of what I was doing, I started down the raw path and didn't last long (I was already vegetarian). But I started down the raw path again maybe ten years ago due to health problems and now pretty much all raw vegan. Taking a long time to transition and not being overly zealous about it has allowed me to effortlessly arrive at the state where I no longer crave or desire cooked food. I really like the concept developing of the "culture of life" as opposed to the "culture of death". I'm a deeply spiritual person (don't translate spiritual to perfect) and raw vegan helps to heal there also. I've gardened pretty much every year since I was seven years old and now grow as much of my own food as I can.
- How can the community best support you in your journey? (moral support, transition advice, fitness tips, etc)
- I've looked at this site for quite some time and I like what I see. I mainly log on to get support and read others' raw experiences. My raw interests are not shared by the people around me so it it nice to come here and feel a sense of community. I live in a really small town outside St. Louis and this is all the raw support I get - and its great!
- Relationship Status:
- Married
- Favorite Raw Food or Recipe?
- Fresh summer fruit smoothies (out of my garden)
- Interests (outside of Raw Food):
- Organic Gardening, Bicycling, Music, Piano
- Favorite Books or Authors:
- All high spiritual books
- GI2MR Oath: I promise to do my best to keep this community drama free. I will not name call or throw around personal attacks. I pledge to be respectful even if I do not agree with another member's opinion. When possible, I'll try to smile : )
- Yes! I accept the GI2MR Oath.

Not much grows on it, just some baby birch tress and grassland hills. But if I get off the path and into the shade I can find lots of wild dandelions. :) Makes for a really good excuse to take a walk every day!

mish said… - sorry Im just getting back to you now Johnny, RE: seedcheese
I let it ferment for about 30 hours. At least a day, then usually a half day more or even almost 2 days. Depends on temperature in my home.
The last cheese I made was garlic/dill. That was really good on celery. and in a salad with dill and herbs mixed in. Also, I put some in gaspacho. Nice!
Ah! neat that you made that sunseed latte! hope it was really luxurious.

P.S. I have a hard time sleeping without some nightcap food too. I was addicted to bananas and almond butter before bed, but I'm trying to phase it out by freezing bananas in the morning and then making raw ice cream at night.
Banana peach coconut smoothie for breakfast, then
3 Collard wraps with spicy mango salsa, avocado, onion, cilantro, sprouts, and sauteed portabello mushroom. Amazing.
Now I'm contemplating dinner. Might treat myself to Que Seraw Seraw in Burlinga...

hi stacey,
I was doing Hatha Yoga, that involves asanas, prayanama, bandha and mudras.
Apart from yoga we were taught Anatomy, Psychology, Philosophy etc., so that the students of this course could teach yoga and take it as a profession later.
