Morning Pig Chores: A Behind-the-Scenes Ride Along

Curious about what it's like to do morning chores on the farm?

Watch the above video. I'll take you along as Eddie, Aaron and I go out to the pastures for our morning pig chores.

As we do the morning chores and wrap up, we'll:

• Fill buckets and containers with feed for the pigs. We use a non-GMO grain mix of barley, corn and soybean meal.
• Load the feed up into the truck and drive out to the pasture.
• Transfer the feed to the four-wheeler and take it out where the pigs are.
• Pour the feed on a nice, clean area of the ground so they don't squabble too much.
• Show you their current pasture where they'll spend the rest of their day foraging and the pasture they'll be moving to in a week.
• Give you a look at the boys' favorite snack during their chore break
• Head over to the pasture with our sows and boar to give them their morning feed.
• Take a peek at what Nettie's been preparing for dinner while we were gone.

If you have any questions about our farming practices, please comment or reach out and let us know.

As always, eat well and stay healthy!
