			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of <a rel="nofollow" href="http://socialspark.com/metrics/click/disclosure?slot_id=316192&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ramblersway.com%2F" target="new">Ramblers Way Farm</a>. All opinions are 100% mine.</em></strong></p>
<p>I simply love it when I am in the presence of organically responsible folks who allow nature to provide the means to care for ourselves in a manner which speaks to my ecolological personality. I am a firm believer in growing and producing our own products to enhance our lifestyles in a natural manner which does not take away from the land, or the environment. Why would I pay extra money to import a product which could be produced right in my own backyard? Each of us are responsible for the impact we have on this planet and our carbon footprint is the legacy we leave our future generations. I would like my own presence to blend in with nature as much as possible.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ramblersway.com/ramblersway-farm" target="new"><img src="http://motherearthbeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/Dave-Norman-Farmer-at-Ramblers-Way-Farm-in-Kennebunk-Maine1-300x186.jpg" alt="Dave Norman, Farmer at Ramblers Way Farm in Kennebunk, Maine" title="Dave Norman, Farmer at Ramblers Way Farm in Kennebunk, Maine" width="300" height="186" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1646" /></a>I truly delight in finding treasures which bring me the quality I seek, and I am quite positive the <em><strong><a href="http://socialspark.com/metrics/click/post?slot_id=316192&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ramblersway.com%2F" rel="nofollow" target="new">sustainable wool apparel </a></em></strong>which can be found at <em><strong><a href="http://socialspark.com/metrics/click/post?slot_id=316192&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ramblersway.com%2F" rel="nofollow">Ramblers Way Farm</a></em></strong> brings a great natural energy into the making of their natural wool products. This is a generational, family owned eco-friendly business, who appear to exemplify the high standards of ecologically friendly business ethics I look for on a daily basis. I am excited to try a sample of this next-to-skin soft material which is grown and made right here on American soil. The humane practices of this family impress me with the love and care they have for the sheep, in not treating them simply as a commodity, yet as fellow creatures who deserve respect in dwelling beside us on this planet.</p>
<p>I would never compromise quality for quantity, and I love the lasting quality of wool. Wool is a natural, renewable fiber with multiple uses, and truly is a complex fiber with properties for superior insulation, water repellency, water absorption and odor control. Wool naturally resists wrinkling and soiling, and is flame resistant. At <a href="http://socialspark.com/metrics/click/post?slot_id=316192&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ramblersway.com%2F" rel="nofollow" target="new">Ramblers Way Farm</a>, the wool garments are natural, non-synthetic, and chemical-free.</p>
<h3>At Ramblers Way</h3>
<p>What makes our worsted wool products sustainable?</p>
<p><em><strong>On our American Farms</em></strong><br />
~ We use organic, no-till, and best management practices.<br />
~ We protect wildlife habitat and preserve critical ecosystems.</p>
<p><em><strong>For our Sheep</em></strong><br />

~ Our environmentally-sensitive enzyme wash is a chlorine-free, patented treatment.<br />
~ We use minimal packaging, made from reclaimed materials that are compostable and recyclable.<br />
~ We generate our own renewable solar and geothermal energy.<br />
~ We use bio-fuels in our trucks and tractors.</p>
<p><em><strong>For the Community</em></strong><br />
~ We give 10% of our profits and 5% of our paid time back to our community.<br />
~ We create worsted wool from natural, renewable fibers that are durable and non-toxic.<br />
~ We connect American farms with American manufacturing, we invigorate local economies.<br />
~ We preserve open space, farmland, and working landscapes.<br />
~ We are web-based, connecting with our customers, with low-impact on the environment.</p>
<p>Wow! This really tells me a lot about this family owned business. Sound, environmentally responsible business ethics, coupled with a eco-friendly product my family can really use makes this a company I would absolutely delight in doing business with! I love to share these rare and wonderful finds, and hope this helps those of like mind in finding that which makes this Life a unique and blessed experience. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://motherearthbeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/organic-gardens1.bmp"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-1192" title="Organic Gardening" src="http://motherearthbeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/organic-gardens1.bmp" alt="" height="230" /></a>If there is one thing that irritates me when it comes to nurturing our garden, it is the battle we wage with the wee little buggers that love to eat our greens as much as we do. Some of these plant loving creatures are highly visible, and bold as brass when it comes to taking advantage of our loving care to create a healthy green atmosphere, in which they seem to believe is a lovely banquet set out just for them.</p>
<p>Personally, I would prefer they find a better place to feast, yet unfortunately I cannot persuade natures little nasties to find a new place to dine without getting a little mean about it. Even though it goes against my nature to eliminate creatures that must have some purpose on this planet, I just wish it could be served elsewhere, preferably far away from our beautiful garden. I would be very happy to find an <em><strong><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000A0ONB2?ie=UTF8&#038;tag=motherearthbeats-20&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=B000A0ONB2" target="new">organic pest control</a><img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=motherearthbeats-20&#038;l=as2&#038;o=1&#038;a=B000A0ONB2" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" /></em></strong> that can eliminate my gardens most <em>unwanted</em> enemies without using strong, toxic poisons, or causing harm to my family and the environment.</p>
<p>In my search to resolve these concerning issues, I believe I may have discovered a way to conquer the bugs without feeling too guilty over this pest elimination in my tiny yard and garden space. In comes <em><strong><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000A0ONB2?ie=UTF8&#038;tag=motherearthbeats-20&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=B000A0ONB2" target="new">Green Light Organic Neem.</a><img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=motherearthbeats-20&#038;l=as2&#038;o=1&#038;a=B000A0ONB2" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" /></em></strong> This is 3 Products In 1, Insecticide, Miticide, &#038; Fungicide. </p>
<p><em><strong><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000A0ONB2?ie=UTF8&#038;tag=motherearthbeats-20&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=B000A0ONB2" target="new">Use On Flowers, Trees, Ornamentals, Vegetables, Fruit &#038; Nuts, Shields To Prevent The Germination &#038; Penetration Of Fungal Spores On The Leaf Surfaces, Contains 70% Neem Oil.<br />
</a></strong></em></p>
<p>Well then, I do believe the tide of this battle may have just turned in my favor! Now that I have such a great weapon in my organic arsenal to help in this Battle of the Bugs, I can share this knowledge with others interested in learning how to fight natures nasties as well. I am always happy to hear other peoples opinions and/or experiences, so feel free to comment and let me know what you think!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://focusorganic.com/" target="new"><img src="http://motherearthbeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/greentree1-150x150.gif" alt="" title="Focus Organic" width="150" height="150" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-1158" /></a>Whilst searching through some blogs for some <em><font color="green">going green</font color></em> tips that I just may not already be aware of, I discovered a really cool blog authored by two modern day earth lovers. These women know what it means to focus on the green aspect of life, and even though it is not always easy, they are willing to give it there best shot while blogging about it to get the word out. </p>
<p>I have a great amount of admiration for those who go the extra mile to keep this planet green and beautiful, while setting good examples for others to follow. So much is taken for granted, that when one looks at the really big picture we can see how each seemingly insignificant act can have a huge impact on the world in which we live in. </p>
<p>It takes all of us to be earth conscious and aware of how we walk on this Earth. Every action we take may be multiplied to the good or ill of the health of the natural world. Whether we know it or not, we are all responsible for our own actions, and the reactions that result. </p>
<p>As Stefanie and Joie seem to share my love of all things green, growing and beautiful, I would like to share their blog <em><strong><a href="http://focusorganic.com/" target="new"><font color="green">Focus Organic</a></font color></em></strong> with you. I like their style, and you will find a lot of tips on going green, and how to enjoy an eco-friendly lifestyle. </p>
<p>Please take a few moments to visit&#8230; I am sure you will not be disappointed. Enjoy!</p>
<p>PS&#8230; Speaking of organic, I found something totally cool to satisfy my grandkids giant craving for candy&#8230; <em><strong><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000HDK0D2?ie=UTF8&#038;tag=motherearthbeats-20&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=B000HDK0D2" target="new">YummyEarth Organic Lollipops!</a><img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=motherearthbeats-20&#038;l=as2&#038;o=1&#038;a=B000HDK0D2" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" /></em></strong> </p>
