Six months came down to today. 🐖❤️
Six months of feeding, watering, bedding pens, checking gates, hauling feed, watching weather, scheduling butcher dates, filling out cut sheets, answering questions, sorting invoices, loading coolers, and praying the whole operation didn’t decide to act like a circus with hooves.
But it was also six months of knowing these hogs.
Ear scratches. Belly rubs. Talking to them while doing chores. Watching them grow. Making sure they were comfortable, well-fed, and cared for every single day.
Because to us, raising pork is not just about the end product. It is about the responsibility we take on from the very beginning.
Today, it all became real.
260 miles driven.
8 families fed.
Freezers filled with locally raised, premium heritage pork.
That number means a lot to us.
It means 8 families now have pork in their freezers that was raised with care, handled with intention, and came from a farm they know by name. It means months of quiet daily work turned into meals around real kitchen tables.
This is the part people don’t always see.
Hog share delivery day is not just “dropping off pork.” It is the final mile of a six-month promise.
From our farm, to the butcher, to your freezer, to your family’s table.
We are tired, grateful, and running on caffeine, cooler math, and one suspicious gas station snack, but mostly we are just honored.
To every family who trusted us with your hog share this round: thank you. Truly. Food is personal, and we do not take that trust lightly.
Tonight, 8 freezers are a little fuller because of Diede Family Farm.
And that feels pretty dang special. 🌾
