Good Morning and hello from your farmer,

A few weeks ago I mentioned we were preparing more Smoked Hams from our latest harvest of Pastured Pigs.

Well, we completed the cure & smoke process and have them packaged and added to our website.

Everyone has their favorite cut of chicken. For some it is the wings (always sell out first), others it is the breast (also sells out fast). At the end of the line is the leg quarter.

However, many people (including Beth & me) prefer the leg quarters. If that includes you then you'll be glad to know about our new Leg Quarter Bundle.

And the best part is the savings! Our bundle includes 7-packs that weigh approximately 15 pounds. The regular price per pack has been reduced from $6.50/lb to $6.00/lb. With the bundle we are including an additional 10% off making the bundle price $5.40/lb.

We know inflation is affecting our customers and are happy we could offer this savings. If you want to get in on this Leg Quarter Bundle savings simply CLICK HERE. It's that easy.

Every so often a customer will ask about drugs and or chemicals used in our farm operations.

Recently we were notified by our USDA inspectors that during our upcoming harvest that they would collect several pounds of meat & tissue from six randomly selected chickens. The meat & tissue would be tested under the U.S. National Residue Program (NRP) for Meat, Poultry, and Egg Products.

Background: An essential aspect of food safety in meat, poultry, and egg products is the control of residues that may result from the use of animal drugs and pesticides, or from incidents involving environmental contaminants.

Tuesday, February 1st I received the results back from the lab. Of the 17 test performed there was no residue detected in any of the samples.

Trust and Transparency are key principles we operate our farm on. It's one thing to be able to say to customers that we do not use drugs & chemicals - being able to provide evidence from a third party does a lot to add credibility.

Are you a "regular" customer of our farm?

If not, and you are looking for premium ALL NATURAL GOODNESS of beef, pork, chicken, and eggs raised on pasture as God intended - without growth hormones, drugs, chemicals, and antibiotics - and raised humanely then you have come to the right farm. Our delivery schedule and product availability is listed below along with order buttons that will take you to our website where you can browse over 90 product choices and place your order from the convenience of your home.

How We Bring Nutrient Density To Our Products

PLEASE NOTE- The market situation with eggs has softened and the $4 surcharge has been cancelled. Additionally, our new pullets have just started laying so we will soon have plenty of eggs. Many thanks for your understanding and support – we have the best customers!!! How We Bring Nutrient Density To Our Beef – Harry, a relatively new customer, picked up his first order at the Hattiesburg location March 1st. He had watched the new Joel Salatin documentary published by Angel Studios and was fascinated. Frankly, I think it is the best documentary of Polyface Farm I have seen as it filled in blanks from before Joel first started farming till now and HOW regenerative farming completely changed a once very degraded farm. Learn more here. Then, Harry visited me March 28th.

Cows & Pigs

Brand New Services– About six weeks ago Dixie Electric Power installed a brand new electric line with poles down my road. They replaced the old copper lines with aluminum and the poles are much better quality and taller. I asked the district manager when was the old copper line installed and he said since electric service was available for us… so, maybe since the mid 1940’s? Then, this week our complete road was blacktopped!!! If you have visited our farm you know it was long overdue. For years it has been patched to the point where the patches had patches. Hahaha

Clean and Cold | Adorable Calves

New Calves On Our Farm– Sometime in April we call our vet and schedule a breeding soundness exam for our bulls. This is before we add our bulls to our cow herd May 1st each year. Our oldest bull, affectionately named “Ole Man” by the guys here, was born on our farm the Spring of 2016.
