Not only does it eliminate waste, but they are so much more healthy for it.<br /><br />I've subscribed to your blog and I look forward to future pots!<br /><br />Rachel<br />...and Zazou too!DragonsDownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05288085295429284999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4805059345305368883.post-63246091464386655802010-01-01T20:53:00.650-05:002010-01-01T20:53:00.650-05:00Rachel,

I do feed my dogs a raw diet already, and they will surely benefit from the trim from any animal harvested from my farm. A sentient, feeling animal will give its life to feed others and out of complete respect, I do not waste any of that animal.<br /><br />However, I will surely find a home for the quality cuts, either with a friend or I might hold over a lamb for aged mutton, a delicacy I am currently learning about.<br /><br />So many options! Thanks for your ideas and welcome to the blog!Daunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13051134715306832694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4805059345305368883.post-5578638659614062302010-01-01T18:33:03.004-05:002010-01-01T18:33:03.004-05:00I just found your blog and have enjoyed reading yo...I just found your blog and have enjoyed reading your past posts. I'm beginning a similar type of journey here in New Mexico.<br /><br />With regard to what to do with the extra lamb, please consider the possibility of offering it as dog food. Fresh, raw meat is a wonderful species-appropriate diet for our much-loved canine companions. <br /><br />Best Wishes,<br />Rachel<br />...and Zazou too!

This is a topic that has been weighing on my mind for a while now, and I hope to someday be in a position to do as you are doing, raising most of my own food. Commenting on the lamb thing: we had friends who would raise three pigs every year, and let all their friends know that a half or whole pig would be available for anyone who wanted to buy it. My family bought one several years in a row, and that was some of the best meat I've ever had. But it's a thought for you, spread the word among friends and family and see if anyone is interested.Breannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14926688591022319522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4805059345305368883.post-165296480537157662009-12-15T23:00:34.546-05:002009-12-15T23:00:34.546-05:00Well, thank you for quoting me and linking our blo...Well, thank you for quoting me and linking our blogs! I'm always interested to know what others are up to. I must say I'm flattered to be on the same post as Joel Salatin. <br /><br />I've enjoyed perusing your blog. I think you are well on your way and far beyond the 'baby steps' of farming. <br /><br />cheers,<br /><br />HDRAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4805059345305368883.post-51031334056068425342009-12-15T19:16:38.480-05:002009-12-15T19:16:38.480-05:00I don't comment here really as I know nothing ...I don't comment here really as I know nothing about farming but just wanted to say that I do indeed learn about the aformentioned solely from this blog ;) In fact, I only read two 'farming' blog and the other one only because it has fabulous photograps!<br />Great to see you posting Daun :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14036104794835542928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4805059345305368883.post-61230124761392582262009-12-15T11:22:09.117-05:002009-12-15T11:22:09.117-05:00I'm so glad you're back.

I buy from farmer's markets and farm direct as much as I can. I love the taste of pastured chicken, I'm still getting used to grass-fed beef.<br />I'm also doing the leg work to have my own personal supply of organic farm-fresh eggs.<br />Thank you for all the amazing information!<br />Thank you for coming back, I missed your posts!Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01887859946030234777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4805059345305368883.post-30048229517012987862009-12-15T11:08:41.024-05:002009-12-15T11:08:41.024-05:00Oh Daun, I missed you!Oh Daun, I missed you!Austenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13004088333430762406noreply@blogger.com
