Beef Restock: every couple of months our beef cut/pack restock falls just before our Jackson Metro delivery. That was the case for September. What this means is this route order deadline ends on Wednesday and we do not complete beef processing so we can restock until late Thursday. That leaves about a third of our customers without the same access to placing orders as everyone else.

So, Beth & I thought the fair thing to do was hold restock until Sunday after all delivery locations are open for orders. NOTE- that we will most likely slice and pack bacon Sunday and then add all products at the same time.

Thanksgiving Turkeys & Smoked Hams:

Last year we ordered freshly frozen turkeys from Joe’s Farm in MI. He raises them on pasture just like we do and only feeds them Non-GMO turkey feed – same as NGF. And everyone loved them.

So, we have ordered another 60 Thanksgiving turkeys from Joe’s Farm. I received word this week that they are processed and ready to ship by sprinter van. Not sure the exact delivery yet, but will setup our store to accept Pre-orders just like we did last year. Delivery to customers will start after we receive them, but not later than Thanksgiving.

Smoked hams are a Thanksgiving favorite along with the centerpiece turkey. We have some in inventory now and will process smoked hams from pigs we harvest in October – inventory to be ready for November delivery routes.

Part 1 of 4 Dr. Casey Means: So, why are we always stocked out?

When I talk with other farmers they are having the same issue – more business than they can do and the demand keeps growing. The driving factor is folks are more aware that the “food” is the problem. Folks are looking for clean, healthy food.
Have you heard of Dr. Casey Means? My first experience was a month ago when she and her brother Calley were on TCN. The podcast was over 2-hours long, but very informative. There have been over 3 million views. You can watch it from this link.

Casey Means, MD is a Stanford-trained physician, Chief Medical Officer and Co-founder of metabolic health company Levels, and Associate Editor of the International Journal of Disease Reversal and Prevention. Her mission is to maximize human potential and reverse the epidemic of preventable chronic disease by empowering individuals with tech-enabled tools that can inform smart, personalized, and sustainable dietary and lifestyle choices.

Dr. Means published her book titled “Good Energy” on May 9th, 2024 that became an instant #1 New York Times bestseller.

"In Good Energy, Dr. Means challenges the conventional dogma of healthcare and presents a compelling case for a metabolic-focused approach to longevity, health, and weight management. Good Energy is full of actionable steps to be mentally and physically strong, and revitalize your life.”

Recently, she was on Megyn Kelly YouTube. The interview is in four parts. The first part is titled “Our Medical Establishment Has “Intentional Blindspot” For What Can Help Americans.” You can watch from this link.

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
