thenewenglandfarm2forkproject Chef Sebastian Carosi presents A Shaker Supper

Sustainable Grub- traditional shaker meals changed according to the seasons and to what the shakers could grow, preserve and store. Cultivating their own produce was always a source of pride. The early shakers ate simple New England fare: minced meat, bean porridge, potatoes, indian bread, cider, maple, milk, medicinal herbs, butter and cheese. As their orchards and fields expanded so did their food choices… Today the only active Shaker community in Sabbathday Lake lists over 20 culinary herb

Holly Noonan Getting Back on Track

My son and I went to Family Camp at a Meditation Center in Vermont last week. Along with 50 or 60 other families, we slept in tents, used the outhouses, ate in the dining tent and tried to not melt in the 95˚F heat. In the mornings, Griffin would go to the "Tiger Tent" for games, art-making and even meditation for 5 year olds, and I would go to the shrine room for 3 luxurious hours of sha

Holly Noonan The Purpose of Junk Food

I talk all the time about how your relationship with good food goes in cycles. You eat well, then some thing happens and you get derailed for a while, eating crap. That eventually gets really old and you clean it up again, and so it goes. On and on. For years.

Sometimes, when you "bottom out" in the cycle, it seems to have an extra gravity, doesn't it? Like you got caught in a tar pit, when self-care is just a hypothetical concept you laugh scornfully at.

"Yeah, yeah, exercise a

COMMUNITY FISH COMMUNITY FISH CSF

COMMUNITY FISH has arrived! This CSF will provide customers in eastern Maine with fresh groundfish, brought direct from the fisherman - for the first time in over a decade! This CSF is more than an opportunity to buy local and sustainable seafood, it is a chance to be a part of a tradition nearly lost off the coast of our great state. COMMUNITY FISH is only using hooks, a sustainable and intentionally inefficient fishing practice intended to protect local stocks while cutting down on bycatch. Th… Continue

Holly Noonan Transformation

I feel like I'm in a Chrysalis. I'm living in a little cottage in the Maine woods while I renovate the house I just bought in Camden, Maine. I'm fast approaching the threshold of busting out of my little chrysalis cottage and moving into my new life.


My friend just taught me how to tile floors and we tiled my bathroom floors! I have wheeled and dealed the objects I could sell from the basement and pulled off (with mucho help) an epic trip to IKEA to buy 2 whole new kitchen

Holly Noonan Dig Deep into Life for Weight Loss

Being a “holistic health counselor” means that I deal with all aspects of my clients’ lives. That means from emotional eating after a hard work week to looking at test results. I’m not a medical practitioner, however. I’m a lifestyle-change-agent.


When people come to me frustrated by their long-term inability to lose weight and keep it off, I dig deeper than the “calories in- calories out” model. Together we looks for signs of hormone imbalance and then lifestyle patterns
