Sally has been making cheeses for 30 years, initially using the milk from a modest herd of two goats and one cow. Sally and Roger Jackson’s secluded farm near Chesaw, Wash., has grown since then — with up to 16 goats, 45 sheep and four cows — and so has Sally’s reputation for making great cheese.

Nature seemingly encourages the use of cleansing alteratives by giving us a bounty of herbs such as dandelion, burdock, echinacea, chickweed, violets, baptisia, cleavers and so on.

Special report: The U.S. Congress’s Joint Committee on Taxation is recommending measures that would severely limit efforts to save farmland. The recommendations from the committee could destroy incentives for landowners that have been essential to conserve private and public land. The incentives, in place for more than 25 years, have led to voluntary conservation of more than 35 million acres of working agricultural lands, working forests, wildlife habitats, historic landscapes and parklands.
