“I am so excited! We have been looking for an affordable resource for healthy
grass fed non-GMO meats, so this is a real blessing to us! Thank you so much!
“. Shelley L.

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.
