This blog has served to be the primary communication method for our farm, our ideas, our mission. This is now the fourth month since we went online and it is exciting to announce that we have hit a consistent 1000 views per month. For our little farm, that is exciting.
Its also encouraging to see the range of people interested in what we are doing here. There are view from about 20 different countries besides the United States. I am hoping that this represents a growing interest around the world in our food system and the human treatment of animals.
Unfortunately our farming problems and subsequent health problems are not unique to America. America is a driving force around the world in many aspects of life, for better or for worse. We are exporting our poor standard of health and disrespect for animals and nature to "developing" countries around the world. This will be, I believe, one of the sad point of America's future legacy.
It is our responsibility to reverse this trend, and to awaken to the problems in our food system which undermines the health of future generations. It is also our responsibility to awaken to the reality that our first God given responsibility according to the bible (which America is founded on) is to take care of the earth we are given and all the animals and plants therein.
We take these responsibilities seriously at Little Sprouts Farm, and are encouraged by the increasing popularity of this blog.
Follow along our adventure as we make the transition from corporate city life to the world of natural farming. Each day brings a new experience and brings us to a deeper understanding about the life and spirit that made America great. At our farm we do our best to give the animals we raise a natural, free, happy, stressfree lifestyle. Our mission is to learn and share how to manage a farming operation that is both profitable and humane.
