The Weblog
This page contains news, event information, and other items added by Ian and Adam, the resident farmers at Old 99. We send out a message every week, but most are set with a delete date about two weeks later. I archive some of the posts if they have content other than weekly availability of produce and meat.
You can send me questions too, which if they are of a general nature, I can post to this Old99 blog.
Old 99 Farm week of May 6 2023
Thank you to several readers who commented about the post last week alerting you to Robert Lustig, MD, being interviewed on The Great Simplification/Nate Hagens.
Topic was food and health.
Lustig was asked what was his advice to avoid chronic, ie recurring illnesses. He said it in three words: Eat Real Food.
That’s why I do what I do.
We have lots of fresh greens, some roots and a stem (asparagus)!
Surf to the online store here to place your order. Store pick up Thurs 4 to 6 or by arrangement.
Here’s another essay I commend to people from the blog site of Ugo Bardi, Prof of Chemistry in Italy.
“the future is not a single path toward catastrophe. It is a garden of forking paths. We are bound to follow one of these paths: we don’t know which one yet, but not all of them lead to the Seneca Cliff. In the transition to a renewable energy system, we can adapt, reduce demand, improve efficiency, deploy new technologies, and simply be happy with a more limited supply of energy. It is only the rigidity of our mental models that make us think that there are no alternatives to fossil fuels.”
Healthy Eating!
