I'm in Binghamton.

My kids are 4, nearly 3, and 2 weeks old
I found MDC because a friend of mine was on here and I was looking for information - she kept sending me here. I avoided it for a while because it was so big (and overwhelming), but ended up getting sucked in

I actually love meeting other MDC mamas - it's funny because we have a local "crunchy" group, and turns out a bunch of them were already MDCers! Very exciting

I love the Whole in the Wall restaurant...

My mom lives near watertown (Henderson Harbor), and my dad works at ft. drum (in ACS) but lives in Canton... trying to think what's crunchy/holistic up there. My mom would know... I know in Belleville there's a great Mennonite store that has raw milk cheese and bulk stuff... hmmmm

What town are you in? Spencerport (small town about 10 minutes west of Rochester)
How old are your kids? 1.5 and 2.5 :yawning
How did you find MDC? through google while doing reasearch for vaxxes (Clearly I decided not to )
Are you interested in meeting other MDC moms? absolutly, especially ones who send their kids to public school on a religious exemption from vaxxes. Im nervous. I was told by an administrator at Spencerport that no one has EVER attended Spencerport (The entire district) on a religious exemption. Not sure how ture that is, because it sounds like bumpkus to me.
What's your favorite holistic place in your area? (restaraunt, other business, etc). Wegman Natural Foods section! And Lori's natural foods, but thats in Henrietta, not far from where I work.
