Happy new year! Look at this comparison of a pork chop from one of our pigs on the left, and commercial breed on the right. We have a whole hog available next week cut to your instructions!

There's something truly special about kunekune meat compared to regular commercial pork chops. The rich, darker color of our Kunekune meat isn't just a feast for the eyes—it's a testament to their quality and the way they’re raised on our farm. 🐖✨

Our Kunekune pigs roam freely on lush pastures, enjoying a natural diet that enhances their flavor and texture. This means you get a juicier, more flavorful chop that truly stands out on your plate! If you’re looking for a taste that reflects the love and care we put into farming, look no further.

Support local, eat better, and experience the difference! 💚

90lbs of apples equated to 3.5 gallons of fresh hand pressed cider! Would it have been easier to buy 3 gallons absolutely! But then I wouldn’t have gotten to spend this beautiful day picking apples on a private orchard with my wife and toddler. I wouldn’t have seen his face light up drinking that first sip.

This summer I started working on this old cider press. I took every piece apart, hand planed the wood, oiled all the moving pieces and then sealed the wood with mineral oil. When I got it all apart I was able to getaway date stamped on the grinder, 1876. It is 150 years old! It was still missing a hopper though. I sent the dimensions to my dad to see what he could come up with. Was not expecting our logo lasered into the wood. The oak for the hopper came from his property. Very happy with how it looks. Going to press some apples this week as a test run.

This spring the City of Battle Creek had a a wooded section near the river logged of nonnative trees. I sent a proposal to our city manager to plant it with native pawpaws. The proposal got approved and last week with a few volunteers we were able to plant it with 50 pawpaw seedlings!

I was out checking on the back part of the property today. We recently ran the fence further back to allow the animals access to the woods if they wish. Mostly it’s the pigs finding acorns or cherry’s or whatever else the pigs can find 😂. But today not only were the pigs back there but so were the horses and our dairy cow. Which got me thinking who else lets multiple species of animals utilize the same track of land?

Had an amazing time at the inaugural Illinois Pawpaw Festival in Pawpaw, IL! We sold every piece of fruit and every tree we brought—thank you to everyone who came out to support! Thank you Austin Cliffe for the invite. 🍈🌳 It’s incredible to see so much love for this delicious native fruit. Can’t wait to do it again next year! "

Found time to plant out some of the pawpaw seedlings today. Very happy with the amount of growth they have shown in their first year, along with the amount of root mass.

Speaking of pawpaws we have a really exciting event taking place on October 5th that I’m very excited for. More information to come closer to October! Checked my forage sights for pawpaw and they are about 2 weeks away from being ripe.

Also the first year with a fig tree in the ground and it is looking good! Hopefully some of the figs will ripen before the first frost.

Michigan native pawpaw trees for sale! These are all seed grown trees from superior plants. $20 for 1 or $30 for 2.

Pawpaws are native to Michigan and grow the largest native fruit to the area! It tastes like a mix between mango and banana with the consistency of custard, and will require two plants for good pollination. Young plants like some shade from harsh mid day sun but after a couple of years can handle fun sun.

New project this summer! Vintage cider press with grinder. Going to pull it apart plane the wood and reassemble. Anyone have any ideas on who made it? Or food safe oil for the metal parts?
