Farm Update –
We thank you for your great comments from our video last week. We believe it is important to be transparent about what we do and honest in our dealings. Additionally, we try to always greet you with a warm smile, friendly greeting, and thank you for your business. We appreciate you choosing Nature's Gourmet Farm for your beef, pork, chicken, and eggs.

Upcoming events: August 6th I will speak to the Petal Rotary Club. August 21st I will testify before the MS Senate AG Committee in Jackson.

The picture above is Beth gathering eggs. This is done everyday - regardless the weather! She then grades them, cleans any that may be dirty, and packages into cartons. She works very hard to bring you great tasting and healthy eggs for your family - free of any chemical and medicated stuff.

It's time to get to work. Remember, the online store closes Monday at midnight for next Wednesday delivery so get your orders in today. Hope you have a blessed day.

Customer Feedback-
"I enjoy the experience of purchasing my beef, pork and chicken from a local farm. I stock my freezer and enjoy it all year. Nature's Gourmet Farm makes it so easy." ~Susan

Quote Worth Re-Quoting – “The shorter the chain between raw food and fork, the fresher it is and the more transparent the system is". Joel Salatin

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

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.
