  In 2014 Patricia became ill with complications from shingles including, food allergies to 6 major foods, frequent infections, and hormonal imbalance.  Conventional medicine had no answers except medications and procedures topping tens of thousands of dollars that year.  It was during this time Patricia became aware of the association and extreme importance of nutrition, stress management, toxin exposure, and holistic approaches to true health.  Patricia and her husband began producing their own food on their family Ranch expanding into a raw milk herd share program serving 50 families per week, a greenhouse and spring fed gardens were used to stock their retail Ranch Market, and they began producing grass fed beef, pastured pork, and free range chicken.
