Homesteading

As I have mentioned, we have neighbors who raise about 80 percent of what they eat. Today was hog processing day and it was a family affair. Teenager and I kept the fire going under the pots. She helped in all areas of the processing, while I am a weenie and mostly tended the fire and took pictures, respectfully of course. It is important for me to be honest with myself about where my food comes from. It humbles me and makes appreciate what it takes to survive. ( And I do love pork chops!! )
