I get this question a LOT…pregnancy test in the Meishan pigs.
Well this is what wee do. Why do we do it. Kinda a fun tradition with the kids. No, collecting the urine isn’t the fun part, the suspense of the test with the kids is.

Things we’ve discovered. Tests are incredibly unreliable. Yet, we still do them. They give us false positives all the time. Even when there’s ZERO chance the gilt or sow is pregnant. Kinda a bad thing if you’re selling a gilt as bred or want her to have a new purpose, or want her bred.

The other thing we have is a Doppler.

What’s the real test, we just know. We just know our pigs and know how they change when no longer in heat. We know when it’s getting close to farrowing.

So, here’s the tests that we use, but know they aren’t reliable.

We listened to our market and what they wanted and we’ve made lots of updates on our website. We always keep in mind what we enjoy and what we can stand behind in products, but we’ve introduced more products for our markets and to our delivery and shipping customers.

You wanted fat back in smaller portions…we got that for you!
You wanted soup bones in smaller bags, we delivered.
You wanted more brats/sausage flavor options. We’ve got it.

We’re also bringing out more family secrets recipe blends using all clean ingredients. MORE of those will be available on the next go around. So be on the look out.

Are we missing something you want other than scrapple…I’m working on it BTW?

If you are looking for more from our family farm let us know. We want to hear. If you want your favorites without the “junk” and if you want your favorites elevated with Meishan pork keep telling us.

Another new addition to the website. The feta spinach brats we introduced a couple of days ago are officially live on the website. I have it linked in the comments also.

Get yours and make a quick dinner worth every calorie!

Don’t forget…that photo contest is still going on for a little while longer!

These turned out to be AMAZING! These are our new apple brats. Apples are no stranger to our Meishan pork. We’ve paired our meats with the wonderful apple flavors before and it was a success. We even offer our own apple blend made on our farm. As we decided to give the apples another seat at our table what better way than in a brat! 💥These are great for everyone in the family. A flavor that speaks for itself, but not over powering, not too spicey, not too salty, not too bland, not too appley (no, that’s not a real word), but they are just right and there won’t be any complaints when this one is served.

The website is updated with these brats and we hope your family and friends enjoy them as much as we do. Local delivery and shipping available or you can pick up from our next market.

Market tomorrow. I’m all packed and ready and we hope to see you there.

It’s a rain or shine event so we will be there under the Pavillion. If you brave the rain drive safe and we will see you there. For those braving the rains tomorrow we will be offering a sale on our pork chops. 25% off on our Meishan bone-in thick cut red meat pork chops with that good fat cap to render your chop in while cooking.

I forgot to remind everyone last week, total fail on my part, but GREAT for those that already submitted their photos. Photo contest and recipe contest. That’s 2 contests in one month! Contest end in March. If you buy our farm products and send in a great photo we can share and/or a great recipe we’d love to enter you into the contest.

See you tomorrow from 11-3. 6110 Lakeside Ave. Come join me under the pavilion and stay dry and enjoy some of our samples. We won’t mind if you have a couple samples 🙂
