All set up to make lard soap with my good friend Jody from Jody Brayford today.
Jody runs a cute little farm stand and hopes to offer soap at her stand. Give her a follow and be sure to check out her stand next spring!
So far, we have only made soap for personal use and gifts but I am tossing around the idea of doing a class or two next year.
Even have the next batches of lard rendering to refill our pails.

Another 36lbs of tomatoes turned into sauce, tomato jam and salsa. Brian cooked us a nice pasta supper to taste the fruits of our labour. Love it when he helps me in the kitchen. Still drowning in tomatoes though. Going to be a busy week.

100% homegrown meal on our table tonight. Our kunekune pork steaks are so delish! Next round of butchering will be in the new year. Let us know if you want to be on the list.

The pigs were all fighting over whose turn it was to drink directly from the hose. Such funny little characters.

End of Summer Sale!!!

We have 2 beautiful 10 month old gilts (ginger gilt pending), 3- 10 month old barrows, numerous 2 1/2 month old gilts, barrows and boarlings, 2- 4 month old boars available as well as 1 proven Jenny sow and 1 proven Tutaki boar (pending).

For the month of August these animals are discounted significantly in an effort to lower my work load. Our other business has become increasingly more demanding of my time and something needs to give.

Message for more details. All breeding stock will be IKHR registered.

Complete package only. 2 Nubian does, 2 boar x nubian doe and doeling. 2 pure nubian bucklings. Had them for thistle control. Plans have changed somewhat. Incredibly friendly. The females are all fantastic with fences. The males have not been trained to electric. Good with solid page wire. Up to date on Glanvac 6 vaccines, recently dewormed. These animals are fairly new to our homestead. (6 months) 2 of the does kidded twins this year. 1 was open. The doeling was born in March to the black nubian doe. PM for more info.

We've had 3 litters of piglets born on the farm this week. 19 babies total! We've had our first cream colored piglet, a litter that the first horn was solid black and the second was black and white, and lastly the most colorful litter we've ever had!
We will have a few available in September if you want to get your name on the list early! All available will be IKHR registered.

After a super long day and half the night driving, we arrived home at 3am Sunday with our new piggies. These siblings came all the way from and I simply cannot wait to see what they do in our herd!
