Recently I spoke with Diane Aboushi during a live interview about her family farm in upstate New York that serves quality Halal and tayyib (pure/wholesome) meat, poultry and vegetables not only to her local community, but to anyone in the U.S. who wants their products shipped to them.
In this video you’ll gain a lot of insight into why she and her husband started the farm. Diane is a lawyer by education and is now using that experience to work on issues surrounding food justice.
You’ll also hear about some of the reasons why her customers are ordering things like beef fat, something that not everyone offers in the food world. We also discuss food freedom and what it means to grow your own and how empowering that can be.
Have a listen at the video above and be sure to visit their site to order: www.halalpastures.com.
I love talking to people who bring great food products to us. I think it’s a fantastic service and a huge sacrifice to build a business that curates and serves high quality Halal products, particularly meats which are very hard to find. If you only really knew what was out there, you would appreciate people and businesses like this so much more. That’s why this interview is so important. Please click below to watch.

If you’ve been following my audio series on The Meaning of Halal & Tayyib, you’ll know I’ve been rolling them out daily for the past several days. Now that I’m finished, I’m putting them all in one place for you so that you can have them in one place, making them easier to find and watch all at once, if you like.
The first one is an overview of what it means to consume halal (permissible) and tayyib (pure) and why it’s so important, considering the modern food industry’s tendency to add so many ingredients and by-products in our foods that it becomes an overwhelming and cumbersome feat to choose the foods that are healthiest and also halal. I begin to break down and simplify these issues for you in the first video.
In the second video, I dive into the first main category of foods to be explained in terms of what you need to know when selecting for halal: Dairy Products.
In the third video, I explain all about things that go into breads (doughs), condiments and sauces that you may want to be aware of when purchasing these kinds of products, or making them yourself.
In this section, I discuss the topic of eating out and cooking global cuisine such as French, Italian, Spanish and even American foods due to some of the non-halal ingredients and what you may want to know before dining at restaurants or purchasing ingredients for your own home cooking.
In the last video, I provide solutions for all of these issues discussed in the previous four videos, which are takeaways that will empower you and your family to take charge of your daily food routines, your health and your lives.
This is my fifth and last video in a series of audio discussions about what halal means and how that affects what we put into our bodies.
