This is a quick solo episode to fill you in on some farm updates. We are so close to being done with meat chickens for the year yay! We also got our batch of turkeys and a new ram.

We get a tiny taste of Nate today, but April takes over the bulk of the pod. It has been the hardest year to date, but we are taking things day by day and just trying to make it through the summer. Pigs have escaped, birds have been lost to predators, given up on our Bresse and White Rock projects, and fearing for July --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod
