Melanie is a military wife and homeschooling mom to 4 boys, living her dream life on a little hobby farm with chickens, a cow, 2 dairy goats and some mouse hunting kitties. Melanie began her journey with nutrition when her oldest was diagnosed with autism at age 3. After seeing dramatic results after having her son on the SCD for a short time, she was sold on the effect food has on health. Her mission is to educate parents on how to nourish their children. She has a particular fascination with lactofermentation and posts a new ferment recipe weekly.
