Family Owned Farm Higher in beta-carotene (reduces the risk of cancer and cardiovascular disease) and vitamin E.

Raising animals in a pastured based system helps create an environment close to how nature intended them to live and therefore have many health benefits including higher levels of Omega 3 Fatty Acids (essential for heart health, reduces risk of obesity, arthritis, allergies, insulin resistance and autoimmune diseases) and lower in Omega-6 fatty acids (may contribute to heart disease, cancers and d

epression). The fat in pork is mostly unsaturated, and most of that is monounsaturated oleic acid, the same fat in olive oil (render pork fat for excellent cooking). The rest of the fat in pork is natural saturated fat which raises the HDL (the good cholesterol). Pasture based eggs include 50 % more folic acid than store bought, they also have 4x the amount of beta-carotene, 4x Omega 3 and less than half the cholesterol. Egg yokes (that are packed with antioxidants) are remarkable brighter compared to the pale yokes of store bought eggs. Pasture based systems are built upon ecological and animal health practices that ensure there are no herbicidal chemicals used in growing forage, no growth hormones are used and no antibiotics used unless 100% needed for a particular animal. Agribusiness today is solely worried about yield and the bottom line so they pack animals into buildings, stuffing them with engineered food sprayed with herbicides that the animals are not naturally designed to eat, pump them full of medication to prevent disease that are caused by conditions they live in (which could be the source for some of these super bugs we have seen lately). Pastured based system philosophy is that a happy animal is a tasty and more nutritional animal, put them in their natural habitat and let nature take care of itself like it has the past several thousand years. You cannot place a value of knowing that the meat you eat had a good, fulfilling life and that its true nutritional potential was met.

Sandy Sue is having some post pregnancy complications. We spend a lot of time with our animals to make them friendly and easy to handle. Its so much easier to bring them on in the vets office instead of sitting out in the cold.

Update:
Duct is now unclogged
Days worth of milk pouring out
Poor girl has got to feel better!
