Half a Hog!

Last Chance!

Did you miss out on a chance to buy half a hog last fall?
Now is your opportunity!  We are short by a half with a group of hogs going in on Thursday, April 10th to C & L Locker Company.  Since they are a custom facility, I cannot put the extra half into our retail stock.  Nor can I simply keep a two-legged pig here.

If you are interested, Please email OmacheFarm@gmail.com ASAP.  If nobody else has called dibs, we'll let you know so you can go ahead and download, fill out, scan and return our cutting form. You have until Sunday, April 13!

Price is as follows: $100 for slaughter, cut and wrap (including curing ham and bacon) plus $3.25 per pound of hanging weight.  (The weight of the carcass before it is cut and wrapped)  The hanging weight should range from 55-75 lbs.

See? I told you we'd let you know.

We have discovered that one of our neighbors who is less than 5 miles from us is getting back in the hog business after several decades.

Their pigs are of various breed mixes so this'll be very exciting.

We have not yet finalized pricing on custom hogs yet but we anticipate having pricing finalized by the end of July at which point I will publish our Info Sheet for all to see!  You'll be able to find it here and at all the markets.

If you are interested, you can see what last year's pricing was HERE.  If you know you want to be at the top of the list to buy a whole or half hog, please email us at OmacheFarm@gmail.com.


Hooray!

Pigs!!!

We now have ten little piggies in residence next door to our sheep.  We are so excited!  right now they're cute. They have been enjoying all the space they have to bounce around and digging little holes in the ground they've been allowed outside.  learning the fine art of dumping their water bucket until I can get another system with less room for spillage ready to go.

It's odd, with our style of farming, to think that these guys had never seen the light of day, literally.  Never seen water in a bucket as opposed to out of a sip spout.  Never seen hay or non-pelleted foodstuffs or dirt.  Never known what their noses are designed to do.  Well, that only took them about five minutes.

For now they're cute.  And a bit mischievous with their digging holes next to the fence and sticking their heads through the fence but I imagine they'll grow out of those antics in favor of bigger pig antics.  Come August, our customers will be enjoying them on their dinner tables.
