Product Update – We delivered our first batch of broilers April 22. Next batch will be available May 20th - ONLY 2-weeks away. We have some available. Simply email how many you want is all that is needed.

Have you ordered your half beef yet? The first ones will go to the processor early June which will be here before you know it. Confirm your order with a deposit is all that is needed to reserve your premium grass-fed beef.

Farm Update –Things are really busy on the farm. Summer pastures are being planted with diverse pasture crops, cattle breeding season is under way, this week we visited each of the Corner Market stores that will sell our pork and eggs, and Beth is starting to gather plenty of eggs from our new hens.

You may remember that last February we visited the State Capital and spoke with many Senators and Representatives about supporting small farms. Currently, our Ag policies & programs suppress small family farms in favor of large corporate farms and Agri-business corporations. Senator Hudson committed to visit our farm, to listen, and come up with how he could help - not only our farm but other small farms as well. The meeting took place last Friday morning. Bottom line, I am encouraged and prayerfully seek your support. Together we can make a difference. BTW, The Farm To Consumer Legal Defense Fund has been instrumental in helping me understand what needs to be changed. 

When you serve Nature's Gourmet Farm grass fed beef, pastured pork, and chicken (and now EGGS) for dinner, you can rest assured that you're making a good choice for your family, Our animals are raised ethically, are GMO-Free, without the addition of hormones or antibiotics to their diet.

It's A Wonderful Life

It's A Wonderful Life – many families have the tradition of watching "It's A Wonderful Life" staring Jimmy Stewart & Donna Reed by author Philip Van Doren Stern from his 1938 Christmas Tale originally titled "The Greatest Gift." RKO Radio pictures purchased his property who later sold it to Liberty Films. Frank Capra, as producer & director, developed the property for a movie and retitled "It's A Wonderful Life" with its debut in 1946. According to a Paul Harvey - The Rest Of The Story, the movie did not become popular until the 1970's because

Emotional Week = Short Newsletter

Difficult Week – About six weeks ago Beth’s mom Jackie found out her cancer had returned. Her condition worsened very fast and she passed away early Tuesday morning. Beth had been staying with her most of the last two weeks. Her funeral was Friday morning. Working with our team we were able to process chicken Tuesday & Wednesday mornings and post inventory. We also processed 8 pigs the afternoon of those two days and posted the fresh pork items. I want to express how much we appreciate our team who stepped up and did extra to support our farm and lessen the burden on Beth.

My Customer Response

Food deserts are regions where people have limited access to healthful and affordable food. This may be due to having a low income or having to travel farther to find healthful food options. Without access to healthful foods, people living in food deserts may be at higher risk of diet-related conditions, such as obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and micro-nutrient deficiencies. Medical News Today I would offer additional considerations to include: 1. In 2016 a study was made that determined MS imports $8.5 billion dollars worth of food. That was more than a billion greater than farm commodity crops generated in sales that year.
