Today we had visitors that asked our daughter what we did w/ the eggs after we got them out of the chicken coop. "Do you wax them or something?" she was asked. NO!!!!!!!!!!!! We don't wax them!!
I keep saying you need to bring your families and children to the farm. Any farm! TEACH THEM WHERE FOOD COMES FROM!!! THEY HAVE NO IDEA!!!!! You may think or assume that they do but they don't! Even adults that visit have no idea! "You're going to eat that?!" they ask. "Heck ya, we're gonna eat that! We're going to eat that over there too!" We try to explain to them that we like to know where our food comes from. We like to know where it lived and how it was treated. We like to know what it ate and what hormones it wasn't shot full of. The meat we eat does not come from a grocery store where they seem to think it magically appears. It is not shot full of red dye so it "looks good".
Please, I'm begging you, meet a farmer. Talk to him. Spend some time with him and learn to appreciate what he does. LEARN something!!! Bring your kids. Make believe it's them that you're teaching if you have to.
Our daughter was asked by an adult today if we waxed our eggs after we got them out of the chicken coop.........
