Today: Introduction.
This morning, after chickens were let out and goats milked, in that post-breakfast hurrah we seem to have every morning that tends to fizzle out just before lunch, it was chore time. The boys were strangely excited to move large quantities of manure from the barn and surrounding pasture and into the garden. It appears…
One of the most popular, most commented on, and most polarizing posts I’ve ever published is not one that argues for agrarianism or home birth or all the saturated fat you can eat. Nope, it is this recipe for grain-free coconut flour pancakes. I have gotten some of the funniest comments on this recipe –…
It has taken me some time, but I am very happy to say that the mini cookbook I’ve been working on is now finished. This book of gluten-free, dairy-free, starch-free, gum-free, and rice-free recipes is near and dear to our family table and I look forward to sharing it with you all… and for FREE, for a short period of time.
As we continue our transition to off-grid living I am constantly thinking of ways to live without electricity in the kitchen. Right now I have no idea what a challenge this will be, but I am trying to move towards more sustainable food preparation methods. I am sharing some of my favorite electricity-free kitchen appliances…
One thing I have found since we moved off-grid is that we simply need to eat more filling, hearty, and dare I say starchy foods. When we first got here that was simply bread and butter, corn tortillas, or plain old oatmeal. Now that my cooking situation is a bit more set up I have…
Right now our chicken field is the stuff of green dreams. I haven’t gotten out there to show you photos yet, partially because I tend to shoot out there to pick some supper fixings and shoot back in before the munchkins start getting restless. I can walk down rows of kale and turnips and sweet…

Hi, I read your post on H2B@H. Do you know there are quite a lot of chocies of herbs you could take to build your milk supply up so you wouldn’t have to give the baby homemade formula?
Erin – Yep. I have taken every herb I could get my hands on, pumped around the clock, eaten every galactogogue in the book. I have a low thyroid that I am working on healing, which I suspect is the root cause of the milk supply issues. Thank you for your comment.
I read your guest post and wanted to comment about your milk supply issue. I nursed my 3 children from 12-18 months each and had supply problems with one of them. My doctor placed me on Reglan for a few weeks to help increase my supply. This medication is used for stomach problems or something not normally associated with lactation but it was successful in my friend and I.
He made several phone calls and read material about it before prescribing it but it works!
I also pumped on one side while the baby nursed on the opposite side every time or at least every other time to boost the demand.
Just a few tips that I thought you would like to hear to go back to all natural if possible.
