Quote Worth Re-Quoting –  "A
farm includes the passion of the farmer's heart, the interest of the farm's
customers, the biological activity in the soil, the pleasantness of the air

vitality out of most farms. And that is why the average farmer is now 60
years old. Serfdom just doesn't attract the best and brightest."
--Joel Salatin

As always, thank you for supporting our regenerative, local farm.

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.

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.
