Welcome from East Texas. Tell us more about your farm!

Moved 2 years ago, still haven’t cleared a spot for a garden. But there’s plenty of feral hogs and a neighbor has a hog trap. So I guess my fall crop is feral hog meat. LOL So far, I’ve gotten 5 young hogs. I processed 3 on Saturday. After skinning, cutting off head and feet, gutting and...

Coffee is ready. I’m kinda tired. I processed meat from 3 small feral hogs Saturday, all day! Took 2 naps yesterday and had little to no ambition. But got a list of things to do so I’m sure I’ll find something to do today!

Queen Sheba on her throne.

Coffee is ready. Happy Sunday morning. It’s going to be a beautiful day with a high of 90F.

Having a glass of ice tea. I’m tired and back is sore. Been “hoggin” all day. Still not done. I packaged back straps, tenderloins, then cut all the meat off the bones. I got 6 pounds of Boar Burger and 9 pounds of pan sausage. Still have to bag and vacuum seal the pan sausage. It’s on the...

Yesterday I got 3 small hogs, 50-60 pounds. There were 9 all together in Bennett’s trap. His cousin had first dibs on the bigger 2 does and he took the rest of the little ones. Son and I hung them off the tractor bucket to skin, gut and quarter. They are packed on ice, I’ll process Friday or...

I hope it all goes well.

My son was contemplating dragging up last night. He’s working on a spit of land on the Mississippi below New Orleans. Instead of shutting down the job and evacuating, they are still working. His camper is 45 minutes south, then an hour of packing it up. He said the roads were clogged up with...

I’m watching it too. Naturally I turned off the alarm this morning and slept until after 7 AM. I was tired. Not moving fast, but did get a load in the washer. Dryer is broke, so hanging clothes on wire I took off a spool originally bought for hot wire fence. Wire is strung on porch supports for...

God bless you. This has to be difficult.

I took my sheep from 610’ elevation on a sandy hill to 200’ elevation and mud slop. I totally get it. But I think your mud is more gooey than mine. Hope you can get some relief for your husband. ❤️

You are blessed to have a husband that’s helps you in canning!

Congratulations on the new goats. 4 is definitely better than 1. Those moon spots! I love moon spots!
