Randy Buchler is a farmer, permaculture expert and educator, and his family of Shady Grove Farm in Gwinn, Michigan are reaching out to the food freedom community for help. Not only has Randy battled to keep the freedom to farm in Michigan (aside from his own victory in keeping his farm in his township), but he has also tenaciously battled Lyme disease.

Randy and his family are really cool. They work so hard to give and provide real value to everyone around them. Randy has shared his ups and downs with various Lyme treatments to his Facebook friends. Very rarely is there a one-shot solution to tick-borne Lyme. In fact, many people who have it say things like “if only it were cancer.” That is because Lyme is the Great (disease) Mimicker and healing from it is often an arduous uphill battle with few sure answers. Many of the bolder solutions require time, investment in repeat treatments and travel.

His many supporters in the video below that I hope you will watch are right – Lyme is a moving target. Despite the many articles out there on natural treatment and the many expensive systems and treatment plans – treating Lyme is strictly personal for the individual. Both the disease and the hunt for treatment really take a toll.

Someone in his busy position struggling with Lyme is beyond a mere hardship for his family and the community that relies on him for fresh, clean food provision. The fact of the matter is – this disease could shutter the farm if the Buchlers can’t be at the helm. The treatment for Lyme is too costly and they need help.

So, if you are looking for a worthy cause, I hope will you visit Randy’s GoFundMe and consider some support for the Shady Grove Farm. By doing so, you will be supporting one of the best local food sources in Michigan and bringing back the full brunt of their voice for food freedom and Michigan’s right to farm.

Description:

Randy Buchler is a treasured small farmer and educator based in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. He and his family run Shady Grove Farm, a highly efficient, diversified livestock and permaculture agricultural operation that provides high quality certified naturally grown products to the community as well as empowering educational opportunities to people of all ages.

The Buchler family needs our support at this point to help Randy get the Lyme disease treatment he needs and to keep the farm going at the same time. His health issues attached to the Lyme symptoms have become increasingly severe in the last few months and the most effective treatment available to him is not covered by health insurance. Without strong community support at this time, the future of Shady Grove Farm could very well be in jeopardy.

Hundreds of people across the country have all been touched deeply by the Buchler’s and their farm. They have poured their time and energy into their land, the animals, the community and work for the common good for many years. They have overcome many major obstacles in the past, as illustrated in the film. Now is the time to pour support back to them and help Randy get the help he so desperately needs and deeply deserves.Thank you for your time!
