Good Morning and hello from your farmer,

This week I would like to share some pictures from around the farm.

The first picture is of an American Bald Eagle who has been visiting us over the past 4 to 5 months. I typically see him about four times per week and usually in the early morning while out feeding the pigs. This particular morning he let me get much closer and I was able to get a good picture of him. Fortunately, he has not bothered any of our chickens.

Let me introduce you to Sr Geno 59G. He is our newest herd bull that I accepted delivery on last Friday afternoon. He came to us from the Southern Reds LLC ranch in Texas and we are expecting big things from him as we seek to improve the quality of our products. Additionally, our farm was used as a staging area for other farmers to meet the delivery truck and pick up their new herd bulls.

We have completed all of the Pork Harvest Sale Preorders and will delivery most of them this weekend! Early feedback from several customers that picked up at the farm has been very positive. Comments include: "The bacon is fantastic, best ever!" "Now this double-grind sausage is definitely better than what came from the other processor. It's really good! Seasoning is good and seems like this sausage is packed better in the casing than the other. Good job on the smoked link sausage."

Here is a tray of sliced bacon ready to be packaged, labeled, and added to the freezer.

Early next week we'll take a good inventory of available pork and post to our store for orders.

We are always looking for ways to improve our products and service to our customers and appreciate how you reward us with your business.

Free RAW Milk | Election Impact on Food Health

Free RAW Milk- Last week I started a conversation around RAW milk and showed test results where raw milk is very similar to a human mother’s milk and contrasted it to current pasteurized milk that has none of the active ingredients found in human milk. I then asked folks two questions: 1. Is raw milk something you would be interested in for your family? 2. Would you like to receive communications about what we are doing and how you can help effect change?

Faithful Customers | FREE Raw Milk

Contents: 1. Faithful Customers 2. Free The Milk 3. Product Availability Update Faithful Customers- September we completed eight years selling our product via our website and making deliveries. From 2010 till 2016 we only sold whole or half beef & pork and chicken. Thursday a customer placed their order. The order number was 20,000 (that is twenty thousand). WOW! Now, that does not mean we have actually filled 20,000 orders because when someone deletes, cancels or leaves an open cart the number is not reused. But, those are exceptions as most of those 20,000 orders are filled. Additionally, this weekend will be our largest volume delivery ever
