Well guys, here we are. My first newsletter. I started to get all tripped up when I realized I subscribe to many a newsletter, but I don’t actually understand how to create one. So I am here in my blog that already exists in my website. I figure I can just build a nice little monthly check in here, and send you all a link through email. That’s the kind of tech savvy genius I am, always finding some work around so I can do what I want myself without spending too much time stuck in the weeds.

January’s Theme is
NOURISHING FOODS
All month long I’m talking about nourishing foods. If you’ve been listening to the podcast, you’ve heard me talk about the great resource that is the Weston A. Price Foundation. If you are looking for more information on ancestral diet, recipes or how to find local farmers using good practices in your area check them out.
To stick with this theme, all month long the podcast will be covering different aspects of nourishing food, as will the videos I create and the members only Zoom Q&A Overshare.
Book Recommendation
The best book I can recommend on the subject of nourishing foods and ancestral diet is Nourishing Traditions: The Cookbook That Challenges Politically Correct Nutrition, by Sally Fallon Morell. Sally is co-founder of the Weston A. Price Foundation. It’s available on Amazon for a really reasonable price. I like this cookbook because it covers a wide range of ingredients and ideas. What it lacks is beautiful color photography and a really good sourdough recipe (I found the one in the book subpar). No big deal though because this book covers fermentation, proper grain preparation, bone broth and so much more. It’s a great reference guide and I recommend adding it to you bookshelf.
The Greener Postures Podcast
This month’s podcast episodes are all about nourishing food. I cover the Weston A. Price dietary guidelines, as well as their dietary dangers list. The next episodes will stick with this theme as I discuss this topic from a more personal perspective. Be sure to subscribe to The Greener Postures Podcast on Apple, Google, Spotify or Anchor. If you would like to listen elsewhere, just copy this RSS feed and paste it into your favorite player: https://anchor.fm/s/bf433928/podcast/rss
Of course, you can always listen to the podcast right here on this website on the PODCAST page.
Featured Video
Have you checked out the Preserving Today YouTube Channel lately? I’ve got a few new shorts up, as well as My Ten Steps for Making Sourdough Bread. But today I’d like to feature my Fermented Kefir Oatmeal video and stick with the nourishing foods theme. For a long time, I avoided grains all together. After learning more about proper grain preparation I found I really enjoy the occasional bowl of oatmeal, and I can feel much better about serving this to my kiddos. Check it out.
What’s Next?
In February I will be talking all things canning. Pressure canning, water bath canning, canning safety, harvest canning, off season canning and so much more. I will be holding a live online workshop on the subject and hope to see a lot of you there! If you are a “Do The Thing” level in the membership, attendance to the workshop is included in the membership cost. If not, you can still sign up and the cost is $40. I will be sending out more info on that workshop soon!
Guys, I am a one man show here. None of this is automated and I don’t have any help. I am just winging it and learning as I go. That being said, if you need anything from me just DM me. Stay in touch! Don’t hesitate to reach out. Email me, DM me on IG or Patreon, or chat with my in the exclusive members only Greener Postures Telegram Group. Talk to you soon!
