This Month's Special

Wow! Spring has arrived in full force! It's awesome to be able to drive around out in the pastures and not be splashing around in the mud.
I appreciated all the feedback from last weeks newsletter. Makes me feel like my time sitting at the computer isn't all in vain.
Just a note on the stubborn cow: she got reunited with the rest of the cows yesterday when I moved the herd back across the creek. She never did cross!
Beef
The cows think they've got it made in the shade! They're really enjoying a salad bar of oats, clover, vetch, radish and more.
This months special is Beef Short Ribs. They're on sale while supplies last.
Pork & Lard
I mentioned a week or two ago that we were going to be rendering some more pork lard. I did one small batch and then a larger batch.
The small batch turned out good but unfortunately the large pot didn't turn out. So, we have a grand total of 4 pint jars of lard. Order yours while you can.
Broilers
We should have our first batch of broiler chicks in later this week! That's exciting to get all those cute little chicks in again.
I've been trying to finish up the brooder barn where we'll start them out for the first 3 weeks before they go out on pasture. I still have some finish work to to on it but this is what it's looking like at the moment.
Well, I think that's all I have for this week. All the best and see you soon.
