From time to time I receive emails with resources for healthy, natural living. It is always a balancing act as I attempt to filter through it all and find certain resources that I think might be useful to you all.
A lot of products or companies I am just not comfortable supporting, given my own personal convictions and the ideals I attempt to encourage here. So when a company or person has created a product or resource that can benefit or encourage you then I’d like to highlight them for you.
I’m thinking it will become a monthly feature, or perhaps less often if nothing is worth highlighting. Some of these companies are sponsors of Nourishing Days, some are affiliates, and some are just things I find useful. Either way I am happy to share all of these resources with you because I think they are all incredibly useful and inspiring.

Last week marked our fourth wedding anniversary. In the past we’ve dined out at unhealthy chain restaurants and eaten desserts that leave us feeling ill. This year my husband surprised me by taking the day off and going on a bit of a treasure hunt. It made for a lovely real food celebration. As he…
As part of our journey towards homesteading as well as knowing where our food comes from, it is only logical that it should start in our own backyard. One of the most fundamental principles of homesteading is growing your own food. If you consume it, you should work towards growing it or raising it yourself….
{from our garden: lettuce, potatoes, beets, onions, cilantro} NOTE: Gardening and preserving is keeping me pretty busy these days. A few articles that bear repeating will fill in the gaps on the days when the to-do list is too long. This post was originally published in April 2009. Throw out the word homesteading in a…

I can’t see anything below the “Nutrition Course and Textbooks for Homeschoolers” title.
Jessica – That’s strange. I can see it when I view it. I’ll look into it.
