Are You Stocked for the Holidays

I love this time of year when the weather begins to turn and leaves decorate the landscape all around the farm. We also enjoy watching the animals like squirrels preparing for winter by gathering acorns and other nuts to carry them through the cold winter days ahead.

For my family, there's a deep sense of satisfaction having grown an abundance of food during the year and knowing that the fruit of our land and labor will be shared with each of you.

As the holiday season (and winter) approaches there's no better time to stock your freezer and pantry with a supply of our farm fresh beef &
pork from this year's harvest. If you are like me it's a wonderful feeling when your home is stocked with an abundant supply of food to keep your
family healthy and nourished all winter long.

Here are some hand picked items from inventory that you may want to consider stocking up on:

Winter-time Favorites

Link Sausage

Pattie Sausage

Ham Hocks

Ham Shank

Freezer Stockers (best deals)

Half-Beef Custom Processed

Quarter Beef

25# Hamburger

15# Chuck Roast

15# Pork Chop

Customer Feedback-

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 about the farm--it's everything touching, emanating from, and supplying that piece of landscape. A farm is virtually a living organism. The tragedy of our time is that cultural philosophies and market realities are squeezing life's 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.

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.
