Resources – Informative and Trusted
Finding solid resources on line isn’t as easy as it might seem.
There is a LOT of garbage and mis-information floating around on the internet. A lot. I spend a ton of time reading and researching articles and sources before I ever hit the share button.
If you follow me regularly, you’ll start to see some of my favorite peeps popping up again and again. Does this mean that I agree with everything they post? No. What it means, is that I’m pretty close to being on board with most of their content because clearly they are doing their research and hitting the mark with great frequency.
Here is what you need to know before you read anything further. Generally speaking, I’m a gal who is more interested in RESULTS than I am credentials. Hard science is not always necessary for me. I’ve gotten cynical about “research” and “studies” because when I dig, I frequently end up discover that the are financed by the people who most benefit from their results. Just about every notable agriculture school in the US is funded in some way, shape or form by the agribusinesses who poison us most. None wants to bite the hand the feeds them. It’s reality, plain and simple.
