As promised I’m devoting this week to posting to Eating Poorganically posts from the VERY beginning. This is the very first post I ever wrote about real foods from August 3rd of 2011 when this blog was still called The Low Ryder. How much do you think we’ve changed in just one year’s time. ***********************************…Continue reading Way Back When

Real Food on A Budget
Food Deserts
There are only three more days of walking for food as part of my Summer of 7 food challenge, but during this process, I’ve learned and thought a lot about food deserts. What are food deserts? Food deserts are low-income areas where access to real food groceries like fresh fruits, vegetables, meats, and fish is…Continue reading Food Deserts
The Garden Growers Q & A
A fortuitous thing happened right about the time I decided to try being a semi-locavorian walk-aholic. (If you haven’t the foggiest idea what that means, read this and this about The Summer of 7, an experiment in mowing down the excesses in our lives.) Since I am trying to eat local and walking for all…Continue reading The Garden Growers Q & A
One Thing that is a TOTAL Waste of Time
I was going to do a post about drying your own herbs. Because our winter was really mild, my oregano, thyme, and rosemary were going berserk. I thought drying my own herbs would be a great thing to do and blog about. You know, really cheap and poorganic?! I googled how to do it. I…Continue reading One Thing that is a TOTAL Waste of Time
The Move of Big Beef: Take 2

Is Gluten-Free Poorganic?
You don’t have to be a very long time reader of The Poorganic Life to pick up on the fact that I LOVE BREAD. I’m pretty sure that every recipe that I’ve posted has flour in it, but I know that there are increasing numbers of people who cannot tolerate gluten. My friend and fellow…Continue reading Is Gluten-Free Poorganic?
When “Better for You” Isn’t Better
A few months ago, my husband and I were driving home from a dairy in PFE (Poorganic Freakin’ Egypt). We had spent our Saturday morning picking-up and delivering raw milk to friends in our raw milk co-op. The back of our car was finally cleared of coolers, ice, wads of cash and the 30+ gallons…Continue reading When “Better for You” Isn’t Better
Crisp Poorganic Waffles
I’ve been meaning to post this recipe for MONTHS, so you can thank my friend Megan for reminding me. These are THE BEST. I adapted them from an Eggo style recipe. These are great to make on the weekend and then have on hand for the kids to grab from the freezer and toast all…Continue reading Crisp Poorganic Waffles
