WTF News- July 15

Wild Turkey Farms News- July 15

Thank goodness for the cool weather, that heat and humidity was about to get the best of us and all the critters. As usual it's been a busy couple weeks and this summer I've had the pleasure of being a full time farmer and babysitter since both of the boys spend the day with me at the farm. Luckily both my mom and grandma live at the farm so the boys have somewhere to go when things get too busy or hot. The boys have really enjoyed the heat since we set one of our cattle water tanks " aka- the swimming pool" up under the pecan tree for them to swim in and the afternoon breaks at grandma's house consist of homemade ice cream or ice cold watermelon. Domisty has been busy canning so that we can eat good all winter long. The pigs are the real winners as they get to enjoy the watermelon rinds and trimmings from Domisty's canning adventures which is usually accompanied by a cool water hose down. All in all I guess we're making do even when it's hot. It's shaping up to be a great weekend so come see us at the markets Saturday.


I know we told many of you that we'd have em back this week but I just got word this morning that they are not able to deliver our hotdogs this week. Real bummer for all of us. Pepperoni and Salami are a couple weeks out too.
