Customer Feedback- 

I am loving your eggs! And I've been through a lot of high end and privately raised eggs.  Y'all really do it right!!  Sarah K.

Quote Worth Re-Quoting – “I know my farmers and ranchers around here in Durango. We were just at the farmers' market this
morning... I know exactly how those cows and sheep and eggs are raised. If you don't know where that meat's coming from, it's probably not worth the risk of ingesting it.”   ~ Nasha Winters from her interview in Acres U.S.A. titled "Cancer: Fighting Back"

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

MS Ag Commissioner Visits NGF

Commissioner Andy Gipson Visits NGF - Monday, Commissioner Gipson (Andy) visited our farm for the third time. First, was after he was appointed and Senator Hill and I were working to increase the poultry exemption for Mississippi. The second time was after we built the USDA poultry processing plant that Andy supported our LWT Grant which helped fund about 50% of the cost. This visit was to support Andy’s efforts to both support existing farmers as well as encourage more people to farm and help feed our citizens.

Farm Improvements

Farm Improvements – Fresh water is a necessity for raising healthy animals on pasture. Until recently, we used an ICB tote on a small tralier that we would refill from our well. During the summer the frequency greatly increases in order to keep the chickens hydrated. So, I called my buddy at Southern Pipe and ordered pipe, fittings, etc. and then rented a trencher for May 16th to install 2,700 feet of 1.25 inch PVC pipe. Along the line we added 15 Plasson Quick Coupler Valves that we will hook to as we move the animals through our pastures.
