Sausages – so, we are looking to our customers for Sausage Inspiration! Since we added pigs to our farm in 2015 (wow- 10 years ago) we have sold basically the same five sausage flavors. The Patty & Regular Link sell pretty good, the Cajun & Cracked Black Pepper sell fair and the Jalapeno not so much.
When you look around there are many various flavors available. The problem with most seasonings is they include nitrates and/or MSG – which neither are ingredients found on healthy food labels.
Our inspector shares how the plant he once worked at made over 1,000 pounds per week to sell into their local market. Lil’ Butcher in Hattiesburg is expanding sausage capacity to 70,000 pounds (rumor not confirmed) and Country Pleasin in Florence does a very robust business.
Obviously, they use commercially raised pork (like those in the video
shared a few weeks back with RFK, Jr. – where 80% of the pork in the USA is from Smithfield which is owned by China – but that is a different discussion).
We want to give our nutrition-seeking and health-conscious customers good choices for sausage from our pasture-raised pigs which are free of chemicals and mRNA.
So, we are seeking your input to select several new and/or replacement flavors to our current sausage offering. Please feel free to let us know what you do or DO NOT like about our current flavors as well as any Brand & Flavor you and your family are passionate about. Simply click reply and we appreciate your valued feedback.
Meet Belle - as you know, we lost Tess our farm dog to a tragic accident July 3rd. That weekend while on deliveries to the MS Gulf Coast a customer brought her Belgian Malinois puppy and breeder contact. Last Saturday after delivery Beth and I drove to Tupelo and purchased Belle.
I sit here thinking what else can I say except “a picture is worth a thousand words.” Belle is a real sweetheart!
Busy Week At The Farm - this week is affectionately known as “Beef Week” because it is three intense days of cutting, packing, and making ground beef. More so this month because we were down two of our “A” team members.
Additionally, this week is when we actually bred 34 of the Red Angus heifers from WY. Monday evening was the final preparation step prior to AI at 6am Thursday morning. I am hoping for a 75% conception rate. Any heifers not pregnant in September will probably AI again. Thankful the Lord gave us an overcast morning and a breeze to take the edge off the heat from the past several days.
At Nature's Gourmet Farm, our intent is to create a community that evolves around one of the most intrinsically important things of the ages, and that’s the provision of sustenance. That's our passion - to raise healthy food to nourish families and strengthen immune systems.
Our Beef is always grass finished with NO grains. Additionally, our animals are free of mRNA, GMO's (chemicals), Antibiotics, and Hormones. We ethically raise them on diverse forage pastures that regenerates our soils and protects the ecosystem.
