Hello everyone!

For those who don't know- for lots of reasons, many health related, we've got to let the farm go.

Thank you to everyone who purchased a share, the butchers who put our meat on their shelves, and everyone who sold us pigs,weaners, feed.

Stay around to find out what kind of sales I have on remaining pork, and support your local butcher shops like Olivor Heritage Farms Butcher Shop

The property is for sale, and if you're interested init or supplying pork regularly to some of my clients dm us

If farmers could stop using terms like "The Kobe Beef" of pork that would be great.

1- not every breed of pork can be the Kobe Beef of pork
2- None of yall ever ate Kobe
3- If we want pork to be taken seriously it needs to be it's own thing and not "just like beef but oinkier"

These guys have been on their current pasture for far too long.

This week they'll move over to this Weedy pasture and clear it out for 2-3weeks. Then back into the woods where my winter forage is coming in nicely.

That will give time for these to be reseed and grow out.

Winter forage crops are Rapeseed, turnip, clover, and winter oats.

Yum!

Hey guys! I've got something for you...

This guy I've tried everything but he must have wonky genetics. He won't grow into a shape I'm willing to sell.

Since I'm not sure what his cuts will look like I'm willing to let him go to anyone who wants to come get him. (Free).

Cut male. Berk/Meishan ~1yr old.

He'll still taste great, or can be dog food, sausage, lard etc.

I know we really need the rain, but next time could we order it for a day that isn't loading day?

Overheard in the grocery store today:
"Why are organic vegetables so expensive, aren't they saving so much money by not putting chemicals on it?"

And folks this is why its so hard for farmers to make it

Noone tells you that when you castrate piglets they p**p on you like 7/10.

Give had problems getting pigs ON a trailer.

What about getting them off?

2hrs and they're still on.

I'm exhausted. They'll stay there overnight after I give v them water from a hose

Pigs are living the good life.

And that's what makes them taste better.

Seriously.

Bonus piglets doing well.

Hopefully I'll have them separated from the other weaners tomorrow so mom can have some privacy with her piglets

Making some changes to how we do things on the farm.

Maybe some of them will help me grow my hair back.
