    WTG Penelope! You did a great job. There are only a hand full of young ladies your age that are able to learn how to put food on your table that is not from the grocery store. You have exceptional parents!

    Awesome to see that young lady learning these valuable skills. Some of the best schooling yall could give her.

    You are teaching your daughter skills that have been lost over time with the industrialization of food processing. Pen will know how to take care of herself better than most of her peers could even dream of. You're doing her a great service by teaching her to grow and process her own food, both plant and animal.

    We got kune pigs because we wanted to start with a smaller pig for ease of processing it ourselves. We are also looking forward to the fat. I have memories as a child at my grandma’s table cutting up frozen lard into cubes for her to render it. Now I have grandkids. Thanks for sharing!

  • @debrabarlow2367
    @debrabarlow2367 9 часов назад +11

    Jason it was good to see you reflect on the impact on yourself of looking after the Kuni’s for 20 months; from birth to freezer. I imagine it was a little harder to process them than say a chicken, but you did it with respect and then onto your table.
    Also hats off to Penelope 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 🐖

    Hands-on biology homeschooling. On a farm/homestead, you see how it's made, how it's raised, and how it's harvested. You will never get that dissecting a frog in middle-school biology class. Without question, you learn so much school. I will never take away from the vast funnel of knowledge provided to our youth through school. My point is balance and recognition. Maybe, just maybe, bring so-called school children out to a local farm/homestead and experience first hand the miracle of life's cycles.

    I usually pull off the leaf lard before I chill the rest. Never really thought through that but is you are sending it off to be butchered you won’t get it unless you take it off then.
    Now I have another reason. That looked rather difficult

    Yes, it is hard after caring for them all that time, but to make the investments pay you have to do it for years. Otherwise that is the most expensive meat you will ever eat. Every year the price drops as you reuse and save on the investments in equipment. You will still have to replace stuff as it wears out, but the initial investment is huge and needs to be spread out over years to make sense. Did the same thing with fishing for family table. It was always cheaper to buy at the store the first year but by the third or fourth year it was so much cheaper. And we knew the quality and how it was handled.

But of course not as delicious as yours! Blessings to your family❤🙏🇨🇦😊
