Did you know that it is more cost effective to have a sow and farrow your own piglets rather than buying in feeder pigs? Come find out why at our Pastured Pork Workshop on Monday, May 15, 2017 from 3:30 – 8:00 p.m. This informative workshop will be presented by Jeff Mattocks and Casey Trinkaus of Fertrell Minerals. Nationally recognized, in the sustainable farming community, they will be giving us all of the insider secrets of how to successfully raise pigs for your homestead or as a profitable enterprise.
The Greatest Resource For the Local Farmer is the Knowledge They Posses.
Unfortunately, an overwhelming amount of farms don’t last more than 5 years. Often times, the spirit is willing, but the knowledge is weak, and when physical strength and financial resources run out, many turn away from their initial passion to work the land. To be successful with your farming ambitions, have a plan, and equip yourself with the knowledge to help you farm and homestead for years to come. This Pastured Pork Workshop is being made available to help you succeed in your farming enterprise. No matter if you are raising pigs for your own family’s freezer, or you are looking to efficiently raise pigs for the farm market, restaurants, and beyond, everyone will be interested to hear the facts and figures that Jeff and Casey have to share.
Avoid Frustration and Fatigue By Learning From the Experts!
Pigs can be fun! They are a wonderful creation of God, but if not managed correctly, you will be chasing pigs through the woods while covered in mud, or you’ll scratching your head wondering how you can stop loosing money. Learn about the key figures you need to know to turn a profit, and how to establish your prices. Learn how to produce a high quality product without having to sacrifice your standards with the inputs you choose to use on your farm. Jeff and Casey will be here May 15th to help you develop a plan for profitable production of pork.
