<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"> Its not often that I submit to the idea of winter, each day dressing as if the sun was going to come out, and as illogical that is, it get's me through the colder months...because the truth is that the sun is on it's way...it always is. The colder months give us an opportunity to go within and close the doors on the past year, just like on the farm its from the darkness that the new seeds grow. Winter serves us, it enables us to stop and focus, to re-seed, to start again... So use this time to look after you...don't give in to the winter colds and flu's, or the winter blues.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"> Make a commitment to your self to spend some time outside everyday, get fresh air circulating through your lungs, absorb some vitamin D, and move your body. Sweat. Breathe deeply.</span></div>

<div style="font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">A large majority of people have a tendency to breathe through their mouth, this bad habit contributes to many associated respiratory problems, reduced CO2 content in alveoli of the lungs, and pathological effects due to suppressed nitric oxide utilisation including bacterial infections, depression and many other ailments. When we breathe through our nose, we utilise out own nitric oxide that is generated in the sinuses. Nitric oxide functions to destruct </span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Trytophan is an essential amino acid that regulates serotonin in the brain, meaning that this mighty amino acid has the ability to make you feel good and keep the winter blues at bay. Try foods like quinoa, raw pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds. </span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><b>GO GREEN</b></span></div>
<div style="font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Its only natural in winter to crave warmer heavier foods, these foods warm from the inside, they also have a tendency to make people tired because alot of energy is diverted to the digestive tract for digestion. Despite the need for warm foods be sure to include raw greens everyday. A green smoothie or a green juice will leave you feeling light and full of energy as well as nourishing you with vitamins and minerals. Try it for a week and see how you feel....the difference is amazing!</span></div>

<div style="color: #232323; font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Carbohydrates have such a bad reputation, touted to be the greatest evil and for the majority of the western world, there is good reason to avoid them because most of the carbohydrates in the standard western fare consist of highly refined, and concentrated carbohydrates that are devoid of any nutrition. The carbohydrates in this form require no digestion, as they enter the body and are assimilated as sugars. </span></div>
<div style="color: #232323; font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Removing this essential nutrient, carbohydrates that is, though is truly not in your best interest, its most likely to cause fatigue, moodiness, lack of concentration, increased sweet cravings and weight gain.</span></div>
<div style="color: #232323; font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><b>NOT ALL CARBS ARE CREATED EQUAL......</b></span></div>
<div style="color: #232323; font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">But it's not all bad news, you see there are some amazing carbohydrates that provide the body with vitamins, minerals and nutrients, and unlike the nasty carbs, these carbohydrates provide the body and most importantly the brain with a slow steady stream of glucose. There's more, the digestion of complex carbohydrates leaves no residual chemicals to be eliminated, once they are broken down, the only wastes are carbon dioxide and oxygen, unlike proteins and fats. These carbohydrates we speak of will help you lose weight, will help you feel good and will nourish your body.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">So let's look at what substitutions we can make.... less desirable for the more desirable, please don't discount these substitutions till you have tried them, especially the ones we have for the pasta.</span></div>

<span _mce_style="font-family: arial;" face="arial" style="font-family: arial;">I am a big believer in honesty, it is the most beautiful gift that you can give yourself and to everyone else, it's liberating and beyond that it keeps you healthy.</span></div>
<div _mce_style="line-height: 24px; border-collapse: collapse; font: normal normal normal 13px/normal Arial; color: #232323; font-size: 9pt; text-align: center; margin: 0px;" align="center" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #232323; font-size: 9pt; font: normal normal normal 13px/normal Arial; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">
<span _mce_style="font-family: arial;" face="arial" style="font-family: arial;">Researchers at the University of Notre Dame found that people that spoke their truth had fewer headaches and sore throats as well as experiencing less mental health compiaints.</span></div>
<div _mce_style="line-height: 24px; border-collapse: collapse; font: normal normal normal 13px/normal Arial; color: #232323; font-size: 9pt; text-align: center; margin: 0px;" align="center" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #232323; font-size: 9pt; font: normal normal normal 13px/normal Arial; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">
<span _mce_style="font-family: arial;" style="font-family: arial;"> This insecurity driven behaviour usually leads to self sabbotage, saying 'yes' when we mean 'no', keeping your opinions to yourself and not standing up for what we believe in. </span></div>
<div _mce_style="line-height: 24px; border-collapse: collapse; font: normal normal normal 13px/normal Arial; color: #232323; font-size: 9pt; text-align: center; margin: 0px;" align="center" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #232323; font-size: 9pt; font: normal normal normal 13px/normal Arial; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">

<span _mce_style="font-family: arial;" face="arial" style="font-family: arial;">This doesn't have to be the life you live out,it can be honest and happy and healthy, you can have a strong sense of your self and your self worthiness will define you. not other peoples opinions.</span></div>
<div _mce_style="line-height: 24px; border-collapse: collapse; font: normal normal normal 13px/normal Arial; color: #232323; font-size: 9pt; text-align: center; margin: 0px;" align="center" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #232323; font-size: 9pt; font: normal normal normal 13px/normal Arial; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">
<span _mce_style="font-family: arial;" face="arial" style="font-family: arial;">This week I would love you to work on your sustained honesty, it keeps life clean. Be honest with you, be the most honest person you know. What do you believe in????? For me, it's a good world, one where we all have access to organic food and to be honest with you all, I would love to know that you begin to live the best, healthiest life ever. </span><span _mce_style="font-family: arial;" style="font-family: arial;"> </span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">The rains have come, I have never truly known the value of rain, well that is before I became a farmer. Rain is something I would dance for, it's so exciting particularly because we had so many autumn seedlings go in today. </span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">For those of you that haven't yet visited our farm, we like to consider it to be 'beyond organic', we don't practice monoculture production nor do we enlist heavy machinery to do all our labour, we have people. Everything that we do is done by hand with love, rain or as Summer has dictated heat..and it is looking amazing. </span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">I am so passionate in demonstrating that growing food can be aesthetically beautiful, as well as functional and our food forest is a perfect example of that. We are using time honoured methods of food production as well as utilising the wisdom of the present and our organic produce is divine for it. Despite the continuing heat, our summer crops are still going strong, we have cucumbers, apple and lebanese, silverbeet, all the herbs, eggplant, tomato, pumpkins, corn, amaranth, beans, lettuce, rocket and so much more and I can't wait till we open it up and share it with you all. In the meantime you can rest assured that you can't get any fresher than straight from the farm, this defines slow food. Imagine when we have completed the whole farm, imagine when the majority of your food is harvested on the day you purchase it, this concept is virtually unheard of in this day and age...we are bringing it back. Absolute freshness and amazing health.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">That is what I want for you..healthy people make a good world and good world makes for the best life, so get healthy, we have our last juicing chart available online this week, this is no 5 and looks at juicing peaches to plums and all the juice inbetween.</span></div>

you need my reminder, here it is anyway there are only 8 more days until
Christmas Day is upon us...Just quietly I am freaking out too, presents aside I
am also beginning to stress about the food.... The most important part of the
day, the blessing that we have I suppose is that with organic food the flavours
are so amazing, you can keep the food simple and produce will do the rest.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

simpler that they are the less stress we have!!!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div style="color: #232323; font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">I remember once upon a time, dreaming of a farm, a place where food grew naturally, this place was where paradise met the rest of the world....I found that place and my dream came true...I didn't think that anything could make me more focused than what I was..farm life has. I never considered myself a farmer, that is until now.</span></div>
<div style="color: #232323; font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">You see the sun has come up on our farm...metaphorically and literally....we have ourselves an amazing farm manager, Steve, who is going to growing your divine organic produce. The farm is coming together, your food is. </span></div>
<div style="color: #232323; font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">You see I think that I have been blessed with the huge responsibility in life of keeping people healthy, that is my mission, to create, perpetuate and share real food. This is truly one thing that creates happiness in the world, for food=life. I must express my gratitude to you all, because its because of you and for you that this can happen....</span></div>
<div style="color: #232323; font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">It's so important for me to connect with you, as a farmer, at our food school and in our farm store these connections, that one's that make us a community are so important for creating the future that we want, a beautiful one, where our kids and their kids will always have access to the best freshest alive foods. </span></div>
<div style="color: #232323; font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">What have I learnt in my short time on the farm, that life is miraculous...its is bigger than we could ever imagine. That the sun rises and sets irrespective of whatever problems you think you may have, and that the people that you love, they are what truly matters...</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">So </span><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px color: #000000;">tomorrow evening</span><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"> I get to hang out with one of my food hero's, Joel Salatin of Food Inc fame. He is a farmer that is revolutionising small scale farms the world over, with a holistic system that goes beyond organic. I look forward to seeing you if you are attending the <a href="http://dumbofeather.com/"><span style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; letter-spacing: 0.0px color: #0e23a3; text-decoration: underline;">Dumbo Feather</span></a> event. For those that are not, don't despair I will be sharing Joel's wisdom. </span></div>

<div style="font-size: 10pt;">
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Have you tried some of our strawberries? They are so sweet and divine...and soooo good for your health. It is so important to make sure that you eat organic strawberries whenever you can, conventionally farmed strawberries have been found with over 60 different pesticide traces, thats pretty scary. In fact, there are many chemicals used on conventional produce that remain once harvested....strawberries are one of the worst. The Environmental Working Group, a non for profit US group has released a foldable pdf, titled the Dirty Dozen, a list complied based on pesticide residues with recommendations for the most heavily sprayed crops. This can be downloaded<span style="color: #659960;"><strong> <a href="http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001BGA2SuHkxwP4nQjsu145INeTefUt2I0mIWCrpNVBsF5U9XYbnhbkDQGzcRP0N2xcxWJVbgI1iCnhw8l3EC6_FBEJ-ynHM5pQh2u3_yEXXINGXcgRNhSOiJUoldqL8z7FDi_ivBSaSCKs8fG4ndHI5WQLxmRShqt0z-OTl_KgCKkJuXTGkNwypvJVQr2IQxnb" shape="rect" style="color: #659960; text-decoration: underline;" target="_blank">HERE</a>. </strong><span style="color: black;">(Even though its from the US, its still relevant to us in Australia)</span></span></span></div>

<div style="font-size: 10pt;">
<span color="#659960" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Back to the sweetness of strawberries , these little wonder fruits are one of the best sources of Vitamin C, the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory nutrient content of strawberries is simply outstanding. Studies have found that the intake of strawberries on aged animals increased cognitive performance and motor function. The studies I think are most interesting are the ones based on digestion with recent studies finding that strawberries can improve the digestive state of those with inflammatory bowel problems including ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. </span></div>

<div style="color: #232323; font: 11.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Hope that you are all sweet (pardon the pun)... This week is all about living the sweet life sans the sugar. Allow me to step back in time, a time when a desire for sweetness was created as a survival mechanism, the sweet foods provided an abundance of instant energy and as much as we believe that we have evolved, humans have an underlying preferance for sweet foods.</span></span></div>
<div style="color: #232323; font: 11.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">

<div style="color: #232323; font: 11.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Rather than deny our desires, I think that we can all make better choices, one's that contribute to a better body, health and overall life..why do I think that...??</span></span></div>
<div style="color: #232323; font: 11.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Without going into it too much, refined sugar from the sugar cane contains no other vitamins and minerals and thus robs the body of the B Vitamin complex to process, these sugars when broken down are also responsible for cross linking of proteins, and feeding nasty bacteria's in the body. </span></span></div>
<div style="color: #232323; font: 11.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">There are many alternatives to sweeten up your day, that can provide nutritive qualities to support good health as well as provide the desire for sweetness. </span></span></div>
<div style="color: #232323; font: 11.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">A craving for sweets can indicate many things ;a blood sugar drop and the body signalling it requires more energy, can be a reaction to stress, a result of boredom, and so many other health factors.</span></span></div>

<div style="font: 12.0px 'Lucida Grande'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">We often know what we feel like when we are in a certain mood. But, how do we know what foods to choose if we wanted to create a more lasting effect on our mood? Which foods are going to provide us with long term benefits to our health? Or are we simply craving to feel a certain way?</span></div>

<div style="font: 12.0px 'Lucida Grande'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">We are naturally very intuitive when it comes to choosing our foods. In this day and age, there is much widespread confusion about what food is ‘good’ for you and what is not. Speaking to many women in the community, it seems that we generally feel bad about food cravings and eating certain foods. The fact is eating should always feel good and we should always love and listen to all of our cravings.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Let’s look at some <b>factors which can impact our food choices,</b> to<b> </b>understand our body and what it needs from food. We will address: </span></div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Lucida Grande'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">1) Why we get <b>cravings and addictions to certain foods</b></span></div>

<div style="font: 12.0px 'Lucida Grande'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">When we are stressed out or tired, we tend to choose foods which are quick to provide us with energy to make us <b>feel better instantly</b>. Carbohydrates that are high in sugar and refined flour products may give us a boost of energy in the short term, but will inevitably deplete us of important nutrients, leading to nutritional deficiencies, low energy levels and low mood. </span></div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Lucida Grande'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">

<div style="font: 14.0px 'Lucida Grande'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><b>“Possible signs and symptoms of energy imbalances can include: energy highs and lows throughout the day, tiredness especially after eating, muscle cramping and fatigue, overweight, low muscle mass, poor sleep, insomnia, stress, over-active thoughts, hyperactivity, depression and a variety of other mood disorders.“</b></span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><b></b></span></div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Lucida Grande'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">One of the main reasons that the carbohydrate ‘high’ impacts our mood directly, is because when we have these sugary foods, our body releases a substance called tryptophan.</span></div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Lucida Grande'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 15.0px;">

Serotonin is the brain chemical that is targeted with most anti-depressant medications. An increase in serotonin means a happier mood and we feel more relaxed. </span></li>
</ul>

<div style="font: 12.0px 'Lucida Grande'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">So, high sugar foods really do make us feel good and you can probably see how it would be easy to feel quite attracted (and possibly even quite addicted) to these feelings. But, when we wind up feeling more tired and stressed than ever before, it is time to get back in touch with our body and what it really<b> </b>needs for better and lasting health.</span></div>

<span style="font: 12.0px 'Lucida Grande'; letter-spacing: 0.0px;">“</span><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><b>Fresh foods are high in vitality which provides our body with a natural rush of oxygen through the blood stream. This feels energising and refreshing.”</b></span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Eating natural whole foods diet, that is - food as close as possible to its most natural state - helps the body to produce everything it needs to feel good. Including some raw foods, like a salad or some fresh cut herbs, with each meal will provide enzymes and vitamins to boost natural feelings of goodness.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Good quality essential fatty acids are really important for the health of the brain and the nervous system and for most parts of the body. That is, the Omegas, 3, 6 and 9’s. Often when we crave ‘junk foods’, like chips and other fatty foods, it may be because our body is actually in need of some good quality fats. Small handfuls of <b>raw nuts and seeds</b> added to dishes will provide essential fats as well as amino acids and various minerals.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">The simple key to finding satisfaction and feeling good from foods is pretty straight forward - listen to your body and give it what it needs.

<div style="font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">The health and glow of you skin, is more about what you are eating....and not eating than it is ever about what you are putting on your skin.</span></div>
<div style="color: #555555; font: 14.0px Arial; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">The key's to beautiful skin are for the most part minerals and enzymes, critical for every function in the human body. This week we look at minerals, compounds that are found in the soil, originating over time in the evolution of our existence. The food we eat has learnt to absorb these minerals, creating a nutritious bank in plants, this nutrition is then transferred to us when we ingest them. The better the soil quality, the better concentration in the plants, which then equates to better nutrition with every bite. This is a very important reason to eat your produce organic, healthy soils=healthy people.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Would you be surprised if I told you that organic green vegetables are one of the most abundant sources of these minerals required for healthy skin, as well as an abundance of complete nutrition to facilitate every other function.</span></div>

<div style="font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">The most important minerals for great skin include silicon, zinc, and iron, and some of the most abundant sources of these are...GREEN FRESH VEGETABLES. These vegetables include chlorophyll and are alkalizing in the body so serve to reduce inflammation and puffiness as well as serving the body as a natural deodorant.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Silicon is a fundamental mineral for skin health, it serves to strengthen the skin, hair and nails, by helping to produce collagens which maintain the skin matrix. Good sources included cabbage, green vegetables, cucumbers, onions, radish, cos lettuce, tomatoes, apples, </span></div>

<div style="font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Zinc is essential for re-building damaged tissues and wounds including collagen, preventing wrinkles, hair loss and brittle nails. Good sources include Organic raw dark chocolate, Raw pumpkin seeds, Pine nuts, Sesame seeds, Pecans, Rolled oats, Dried watermelon seeds, kale, silverbeet</span></div>

<div style="font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Iron is required to transport oxygen around the body, including the skin's surface. This act improves circulation and in turn skin tone, good sources include Spinach, Artichoke, Squash Seeds, Dried Apricots, Pistachios, Raisins, Walnuts, Asparagus, Quinoa, Mushrooms, Beans</span></div>
<div style="color: #555555; font: 14.0px Arial; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Enzymes play an equally important role by purifying the blood, metabolising fats, renewing aging skin and keeping the blood clean.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">A interesting fact... a study undertaken by St Andrews University of Psychology found that by increasing fruit and vegetable intake, the tone of the skin improved, resulting in an improved healthiness and attractiveness of facial skin.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">So what does this all translate to??? Something truly simple...increasing your daily intake of fresh organic produce, preferably as close to its natural state as possible, this doesn't mean eating all of it raw, but at least in the colder months including at least a juice/green smoothie a day and a salad with your lunch and dinner. </span></div>

<div style="color: #232323; font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">In our part of the world the temperature is struggling to reach 10 degrees on a daily basis, it is here that I am reminded that I am usually quite reluctant to submit to winter, to dress appropriately ,this year is a little different. Since moving out to the country, cold is cold....I have not known life this cold, and thats not a bad thing, just a cold one...This temperature drop has meant that my food choices have changed too, and although salads and juices make a large part of my daily foods, I find myself wanting the nourishing, warm and comforting heavy foods to sustain me. Nature hears my call, and yours too, you see all the foods that are in season right now are warming foods. These foods raise the basal body temperature as well as being a stimulate for metabolism, and invigorating blood circulation. This equates to warmth from the inside, an important element of overall health and warmth. Generally speaking the longer the produce takes to grow and ripen, the more warming it is for the body, likewise if the vegetable likes the cooler weather, it is also considered a warming vegetable.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">I know with the mass variety of produce at the supermarket, its hard to know which vegetables and fruits are in season, so check out our <a href="http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001OuUO9ZrHUmqtFcQY9iAvPu0JXeMTQxyYDdhZdzhCt60hfsiwJjkJQ-E0yFw0tHUjOeZmfoLYNsJCC5tFtBjxVRD3b-938_dpe16KXligqMV1tGB-pb-W7e1TpcWbz5h74NLkqygZYzb33End5i7cIntAyS_HCbOlWcjqbZdZvLxHTL7S3_vACMO0uSZMb6QXZtBvzr173Lk5L6b9GBGwTrlIM2dRh682Wavumvi9csMSZpnsexTxxjP8CcaxYahn"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px color: #0e23a3; text-decoration: underline;">seasonal list</span></a> for more information.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Try incorporating these foods,<b> organically grown of course</b>, into your weekly intake:Cayenne pepper, Parsnips, ginger Oats, Almonds, leek, sweet potatoes, cabbage, kale ( I know that I rant and rave about this divine vegetable, but I want you to be super healthy and eat it all the time), beetroot, fennel, swede, turnips,</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">An interesting fact, foods grown with artifical stimulation, via chemical fertilisation are more cooling for the body, as opposed to organic produce which ripens and develops naturally.</span></div>

<div style="font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">What a wild and stormy night in Melbourne, Winter is truly here. We should welcome this with open arms, this cooler weather makes way for some amazing produce and how blessed are we in Melbourne to have all the seasons to enjoy in one year and mostly in one day.</span></div>
<div style="font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">This amazing weather slows down the world of food, with heavy rains slowing down growth, this is not necessarily a bad thing its just how nature rolls. Either way at the moment, its great for building ark's, if that's your thing. My thing is marveling and devouring amazing food, I love it, it truly makes my heart sing, there are only a few things in this world that can do that, people, food and beauty...and I can have all those things with food, it has an amazing ability to bring people together, and when its fresh organic food, it nourishes on a cellular level as well as on a soul level. </span></div>
<div style="font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Today in the background I heard a report, it was about how the larger food corporations are shaping the future of our food in Australia (this is not a new discussion) and for that moment my heart sunk, 'this was a tragedy, how can anybody make those choices for us... then I had a moment of clarity...they can't, we are completely in control of creating the world we want, by voting for the future with our dollars, you see these corporations would not be investing in conventional agricultural systems if the greater society spent their dollars on sustainable, life giving systems.... organic systems. </span></div>
<div style="font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">I want there to be a future where food can move people, with its taste, nutrition and life. Where biodiversity exists and where people are healthy and happy and I need your help to do this. No man is an island (although if these rains continue, my property may become one), my request is that this week, you preach the virtues of organic food, share your food with those you love, teach them about the power of good food and mostly sit and enjoy yours...its truly a blessing and you share your blessing everytime you do this because you create a healthier world.. </span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Just some interesting organic information for your perusal:</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Organic food can contain up to 40% more vitamins and minerals than conventionally grown food. That equates to more carrot in your carrot. With one U.S. study finding that organic food contained 63 per cent more calcium, 73 per cent more iron, 125 per cent more potassium and 60 per cent more zinc than conventionally grown food, as well as 25 per cent less of the toxic element mercury.</span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">What a question, and
as deep as the answer could be, I just want to scratch the surface in the
literal sense. You see what we bring to the table, has the biggest impact
on everything in our lives, our energy, health and in turn happiness. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When we eat foods
grown naturally..organically, we nourish the mind body and soul, and doing so
we know that every mouthful contributes positivity to not only our bodies, but
those whom we share a meal with. It also nourishes the earth, in every sense,
encouraging biodiversity, growth and ultimately life. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It is so rewarding to
know where your food has come from and how it is created, it's this connection
that breeds respect for the food that we consume and in turn the farmers that
grow it. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">

amazing foods together to create a meal...is the best expression of life, to
take the bounty and use it to create energy in our bodies this is bliss.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I don't know that the true taste of nuts can be experienced
until they are eaten fresh from their shell. Cracked and eaten, as nature
created, the oils are healthy and safe, the flavour sweet. Fresh nuts
have limited seasons and this is the season for fresh walnuts. As well as
being delicious, there is also something quite gratifying of cracking the shell
and eating the treasure. Try them for yourself.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="right" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: right;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This cooler weather makes for great parsnips, producing a
sweeter nutty root. A versatile vegetable that is equally delicious raw
as it cooked, these are being harvested this week for your orders.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="right" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: right;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Celery is back, and just in time for your juices and soups.
Make sure that you use all of the celery, the tops can be added to stews
and soups, as well as juices and smoothies. This is coming in from
Queensland, as the Melbourne crops have finished for the time being.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="right" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: right;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Tomatoes are making a comeback, albeit at a price, they are very
limited at the moment and stock is selling out fast, so be sure to get your
orders in quickly.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="right" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: right;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The star performer this week, by far is the fancy lettuce, it is
divine. Makes for a beautiful salad.....<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="right" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: right;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Tumeric is back, this is one of nature's most powerful healers,
juice it dry it, just get it in.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div style="color: #232323; font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">You know in our region, the Yarra Valley and the greater Melbourne, we have so many fine artisans, masters in their craft, that could rival any. We are so blessed to live where we live, to have access to some of the highest quality, nutrient dense foods in the world and we have a responsibility to our kids to preserve these producers for they are the ones that will save us all. I know that I can be quite melodramatic at times, but its true. Imagine, if your choices were to only purchase your foods from one of two stores, these stores stocking mainly mass produced, mass farmed foods, primarily fast foods....what do you think the future would look like...is that one where you are in control of your destiny... I don't know about you, but I don't think that scenario is healthy for anyone. </span></div>
<div style="color: #232323; font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">

<div style="color: #232323; font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"> I know I constantly harp on about preserving food traditions, but its truly the single most important thing you can do for our food. Cooking up a storm for your family and friends, does more than just fill the stomach, it fills the soul. There is magic in a culture that values its food, and passes on this to their offspring. These were the secrets of survival that stood the test of time and ensured starvation was kept at bay, and at least hunger was. We are the first generation that mostly abandons this in favour of convenience and fast food, with research showing that our diet has changed more dramatically in the last 100 years than in the last 10,000 years of evolution. Mostly not by choice, but need. Our lives are so fast, that eating becomes refueling, more than it is enjoyment. That's sad. Make a stand, and make a change, you have the power in you!</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">It also so important to learn about where your food comes from, not only does this breed respect in the food (and reduces waste), but it also this connection that gives your food a face. Meet some of our farmers <a href="http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001BovsevOaSMW1gQ1tf_ptRceCUU9kPbnQZd_zhiWPnLvmAnZJsG2hXFaD0NwvPIvgO-QIwSgiWWip2MSiPAjI9y0JXzq3KXx5IAg-Q2GIGi9CkZ10yoWtGBVn2uQ09M92HqYgLMrzhTcjenhGm1ztyT_xCaALSaJOiPCFdAQNN2zVo809X_jtoXWq-571oHhrvDgBCm74zHecGTQAsPkUPEICVIcLae0Z3jLLmx18aP9XQ7d7ri36fbXypUM61tpN"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px color: #0e23a3; text-decoration: underline;">here</span></a> (this list is not complete, still awaiting some happy snaps of some of our other farmers;).</span></div>

It's this passion, that drives us to create an independent space to foster this, our grocery lines in the store are produced from local artisans, our chefs, cooks and health professionals all local and committed to making your food the best.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">So the weather's definitely alot chiller than I dare remember, especially here on the farm. It really doesn't seem to warm up much more past -3 degrees, ok perhaps a slight exaggeration..This weather lends itself to slowing down though, it's the natural rhythm of this universe, when the temperature drops the activity slows. Its at this time of the year that life goes underground, with the large majority of root vegetable flourishing, perhaps this is a perfect analogy of what happens to humans, its often at this time of the year we become a lot more reflective, refocusing and comforting ourselves with food.</span></div>

We have a fabulous line up of foodies, chef's, cook's who can't wait to share their magic with you either. It's so nice when things come together, our aim with the store was to re-construct the disheveled interior with sustainable recycled materials as much as possible and we have quite successful in doing this, we polished the existing floors, after stripping back over 70 years of flooring. Its going to quite a culinary experience.</span></div>

<div style="font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">The first half of the 20th saw many wars fought, many lives lost and Anzac day is an important day to commemorate the Australian fallen soldiers and the battle that they fought to protect Australia, we thank them for this sacrifice.</span></div>
<div style="font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">This part in time, also marked the advent of conventional farming with the use of chemical pesticides and fertilisers. Once World War II was over, ammunition companies needed to find a use for chemicals that were created for use in warfare, in particular ammonium nitrate which was an a cheap source of nitrogen. Soon after more chemical concoctions were produced and infiltrated agricultural farms the world over, in particular a highly toxic substance known as DDT, which since was also found to be damaging to reproductive systems in humans, carcinogenic and endocrine disrupting. DDT has since been banned for use in food, but the tragedy as outlined by the Soil Association, is " that 150 of the available 311 pesticides commonly used have been identified as potentially causing cancer".* </span></div>
<div style="font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">The irony is that all this drama could be avoided by eating organic food, supporting organic agriculture and refusing to buy into need to use artificial chemicals to grow food. WE create the world with our dollars, so create a beautiful one, one where life grows naturally....</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">One place this happens, sometimes much to your disgust is in the garden, in World War II, the virtues of weeds were rediscovered when food was not always in abundance. Many cultures, regularly enjoy weeds as part as usual daily fare, with some of our most common weeds bottled and sold as superfoods, namely dandelion, reputed for its ability to stimulate the liver, stimulates fat metabolism and serves as an amazing blood purifier. This week our focus is on foraging in your own backyard, taking a leaf out of your grandparents wisdom...this topic does come with a clause though...don't eat anything you haven't identified and know to be safe...and if you don't know, get out there and get educated. </span></div>

<div style="color: #232323; font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">I have been reading a most fascinating book lately, on nutrition for the brain and I won't bore you with all the details, just yet ..as intriguing as they are but focus this week on a broader topic of brain food...Thinking, dreaming, cooking, focusing, body movement, breathing, living, laughing all these functions and in fact every action you can think of require the brain. Considering that the brain is the control centre for the whole body, I think that nourishing this organ with the right for foods, should be a priority.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">Interestingly the brain requires around 20% of our daily energy intake, and its preferable source is carbohydrates (the organic fresh variety of fruits and vegetables). This information is no green card to indulge in high sugar foods, quite the contrary with researchers finding that high blood sugar is associated with elevated cortisol...this hormone actually impairs memory. So keep the food as natural as possible, and choose the slow releasing carbohydrates like beans, potatoes, bananas (with some walnuts..perfect mix), apples and the majority of fresh organic produce contain fibre, this slows down the blood glucose release creating perfect energy for the brain. <b>GRAZE LIKE AN ANIMAL, </b>with the idea being to give your brain a steady stream of energy from fresh foods, preferably organic, eaten often.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">The brain is the master computer that sends chemical messages throughout the whole body, instructing the organs on what to do. This process is made possible by an important group of chemical messengers, prostaglandins, these initiate the self repair mechanisms in the body. </span><span style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Tahoma; letter-spacing: 0px;">In order to manufacture healthy brain cells and prostaglandins, the body MUST have Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids. Integral to the cell membranes and enzymes within the cells. </span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">What an egg-citing time of the year...family, food and holidays. Easter, has been celebrated the world over for many centuries and irrespective of religious denomination, is celebrated primarily with symbolic food. In our home as it is many, its hot cross buns on Good Friday, and a massive family feast on Easter Sunday. Typically rich and decadant, it makes me feel like I need to alkalize the rest of the year.</span></div>

<div style="font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">You see holidays, Easter in particular have evolved from a wholesome traditional occasion to a commercialised opportunity for mass consumption and indulgence of foods that rob our bodies of health. </span></div>
<div style="font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 16.0px;">

<div style="font: 13.0px Tahoma; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">Ironically Easter, the world over is a symbol of the regeneration of Earth, so why not use these couple of day's off to re-evaluate where your are health wise and where you want to be? What you can you do to help your body re-generate health more effectively? What foods should you eat? What foods should you avoid? Ironically it's most of the foods that we celebrate Easter with, refined processed sugars and products, that we need to reduce. So this Easter in the midst of the food madness why not make like a bunny and munch on a carrot, some raw spinach or make a delicious juice. You see food needn't be unhealthy to taste good, its quite the opposite, the best tasting foods are generally in their natural state, raw, unprocessed, unrefined, full of flavour and always ORGANIC.</span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 13pt;">I'm always a little
reluctant to bring out Hot Cross Buns and Easter treats early, much to my
children's disgust. In our home, Hot Cross Buns are saved for the Easter
period in an important tradition that the kids look forward to. Rituals
and traditions are the backbones that bind communities and families and
interestingly the world over, they are usually formed around food and meals.
You see every culture in the world uses special foods to mark special
occasions and celebrate its significance in their lives. Its these
important traditions that over time have brought people together to bake, stir
and cook with a common goal of celebrating life by creating foods that nourish
the soul as much as the body. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 13pt;">In Australia we are
so blessed with so many different cultures with so many rituals, that we can
celebrate life with the people we love irrespective of our religious
denominations by creating our own family rituals, one's that can be passed on
for generations to come. Even better your can re-establish your own
families rituals as simplistic as they may have been, they are so
important. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

So get to improving your digestion.<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Enjoy an appertivo before you eat, this is something bitter in taste that stimulates digestive enzymes, try apple cider vinegar, lemon juice or some wild rocket</li>
<li>Relax when you are eating</li>
<li>avoid liquids with meals, it dilutes digestive juices</li>
<li>chew your food properly, that means till the food is as finely ground as possible</li>
<li>Stop eating before you get full, this gives your body space for digestion.</li>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">This week we want to talk about our skin, it is the largest organ in the body, a remarkable organ that not only protects our vital organs but also regulates temperature and detoxifies the body. Its a powerful interface between the mind, body and soul, and can show our stress, happiness, health and age. Protecting and nourishing your skin, doesn't come from the outside, but the inside and like most mechanisms in the most part is affected by what we eat, don't eat and absorb. Whether you need to maintain, preserve or repair your skin, its never too late to begin, and where else to start but your food. Before we proceed any further, we must stress the power of organic food to nourish the body and skin. Feeding your body pure clean foods with no artifical chemicals is so important for keeping at bay ageing and problematic skin as well as providing optimum nutritional content.</span></div>
