When the stars are in the right alignment, ( or whenver I can get my act together to schedule it ) Ulla Kjarval will be on GardenFork Radio. In the meantime, here is a great video about Ullah, her dad Ingimundur and their farm, Spring Lake Farm in Meredith, NY , by Liza de Guia, who blogs about food and makes great videos at her site, Food Curated.
To me, Ullah is one of a few people who walks the talk; she has her feet in both the ‘social media food world’ and the ‘farm world’. Ullah is an advocate for grass fed meat, who farms and blogs. You can read more on her blog: Goldilock’s Farm Notes . She also runs a social media company, Sheep Dog PD.
Liza’s site, Food Curated, is a great example of how people can use off the shelf technology to get out the message about a topic or issue they are passionate about. Liza’s energy clearly shows here, and she tells great stories. If you want to make videos and put them on the web, Food Curated is how to do it.

Incredible! Thanks for posting this terrific video and links to some of the sites that had escaped my radar.
You’re right – Food Curated is a great model of how things should be done. Very impressed Stories were told by the subjects in some interesting placers..

Hey there Eric,
Thanks so much for raising awareness on your site about Ulla and her father’s farm and mission. I really appreciate it 🙂 It was a gift to tell her story and I feel so honored that you feel the way you do about my videos. I am truly passionate about storytelling and I’m always happy to share the interesting things I learn about food with others. It’s growing interest and support like yours that keeps my little dream alive, so thank you!
See you in the city soon!!
Cheers,
Liza
