Tis The Season For Comfort Foods

This week we announced our new Comfort Foods bundle and added a collection of classic comfort foods
and delicious new seasonings to our online store.

We decided to create this new Winter Comfort Foods bundle that includes roasts, whole chicken, and ground beef for a few reasons that I'd like to share with you today.

First and foremost, as the temperatures drop a bit it sure is nice to look forward to enjoying a roast, meatloaf or bowl of your favorite savory stew, chili or soup.

It truly is the heart of Comfort Foods season.

Whether you choose to simmer your comfort favorites on the stovetop or slow cook them all day in a crockpot, it's tough to beat the aroma of slow-cooked seasoned meats, veggies and potatoes.

I can tell you that we decided to include one of our whole pasture-raised chicken so you can roast up a chicken to make homemade chicken & noodles, chicken & rice soup or just a tasty slow-cooked breast.

Beth has recently started oven-roasting our chicken with the Chipotle seasoning from The Bearded Butchers we now have in our online store. It is absolutely dynamite.

And, we know many of our customers make sure to use the whole chicken, including the bones, to very simply make up their own nourishing, healing Chicken Bone broth.

All you have to do is place the leftover carcass in a crockpot, dutch oven or soup pot with some carrots, celery, onion, a few cloves of garlic, a bay leaf and a few TBSP of lemon juice or apple cider vinegar and add water until the entire bird is submerged. Slow cook it for 12-15 hours low and slow.

Last but not least, we included eggs that can be paired with our ground beef to make a delicious meatloaf or to spice up a weekend breakfast and brunch with an egg casserole.

As you can see, this bundle is very versatile for many delicious meals over the coming weeks.

As a reminder, we have a special offer going through Monday night Jan. 4th where we're adding 2 *extra* lbs. of ground beef (a $15 value) to all orders for the new Winter Comfort Bundle.

What Would You Tell Politicians About MAHA?

What would I tell politicians about MAHA– This week Joel Salatin’s lunatic farmer musing was titled Organic Dependency. The gist of the article was about all of the organic | sustainable | regenerative | ecological farming organizations screaming that Trump’s budget cuts through the USDA will hurt their business….no more free hoop houses and such. I understand the solution may not be as simple as I make it out to be, but my number ONE position is that any law, regulation, funding, education, academic studies, etc. should be equal regardless if you farm conventionally | organic | sustainable | regenerative | or, ecological.

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
