Yes, and such a senseless loss. They were such good people. My heart goes out to all of their sons.

I was so inspired by this couple and now so SAD to hear that they were murdered. What a horrendous loss to the farming community and everybody who knew them. May their inspiration and memory live on.

Thanks, Amy! That’s the way to do it – get a large portion and freeze for later use. Thanks for sharing your visit with the Jondles…so cool they are so close and I (obviously) love what they are doing on their farm. I hope more people can support this way of farming, so it can continue too.

We love getting our meat at Abundant Life Farm! We took the leap and bought half a pig, a quarter of a cow, and many chickens. We even took a tour recently, and the Jondle’s were so gracious and welcoming. Here’s a link to my blog recounting our visit: http://yardtofork.wordpress.com/2010/02/06/farm-tour-abundant-life-farm/ Thanks for all you do to bring these kinds of stories to life!

Hey Rebecca,
Actually, the lettuce pic was taken in my breakfast nook first thing in the day… and the honda that I bought actually makes the motor for the medium sized mantis…so I am hoping I have saved some money by buying the honda…

I think growing your own stuff, crop wise, is the best bet so there are no pestiside and stuff that you have to worry about. The only thing I buy is my meat and chicken....oh and there is an awesome site I use for my gardening and food ideas and tip, AnswersTV.com. They have a food channel, garden channel, health channel, all that good stuff. Definitely a great resource for people looking for all around tips and even great recipes.

I am so glad the Jondle’s decided to start their farm! We’re big fans! We have been getting meat from Abundant Life for a couple years and it really is a quality product.

Thanks, Crystal! Yes, the Jondles are very inspirational and it was so good to see a farm like this in action.

Hope you enjoy the book too. BTW, I just found out Joel Salatin is speaking in Olympia tonight! If someone is interested and is nearby, he’ll be at Evergreen State College, at 7pm. More info here: http://www.evergreen.edu/news/archive/2008/05/sustainableagriculture

Thanks for the video and story. It is very inspiring!
