Moving Pigs – Pasture Posts #77

Here’s the weekly roundup from Watson Farms and your direct connection to your farmer. Enjoy the latest edition of Pasture Posts!

We have a nice group of about 34 pigs right now that are marching quickly through our pig paddocks. They are grazing on lots of forbs and grasses which makes a wonderful salad that they enjoy. Some of this vegetation is over 6 feet tall and as you’ll see in the video, they tame it down really well. Check it out!


Product Spotlight

We need your help in freeing up some space in our freezers! We have a surplus of some variety cuts that we really need to move in order to have the space we need for new product that will be coming in over the next few weeks. Check out these incredible prices below!

We are also overstocked on Medium Eggs from our new flock of hens that have really started laying well in the last couple weeks. Take advantage of this great price which comes to $1.50/dz ($22.50 per case of flats).

For some of our recommended products, check out our Featured Product Page.  You might find something that you didn’t even know we had!


Help us spread the word!

It’s now easier than ever to Give $15 and Get $15 through our Referral Program.  We don’t spend a lot of money of advertising, but rather we focus on producing products that people love and are willing to tell others about.  So we depend on word of mouth to find new customers and ultimately to heal more land.  

So in an effort to streamline this process we have made it easier to tell others (via email, Facebook, or Twitter) about Watson Farms.  And it’s all automated on the backend, so you don’t have to rely on us to issue the store credits manually.  Just head over to our Referrals Page and start sharing!


We re-use packaging!

We’ve seen a good response to our efforts in re-using packaging! Thanks and keep it up.  

You can help us reduce our carbon footprint by returning your CLEAN egg cartons and meat boxes. 

The main reason that we switched to plastic egg cartons a while back was because they are so much more durable than paper which could only be used once.  They also protect the eggs much better!

So if you have some egg cartons or boxes to return, you can just place them on your porch on your home delivery day.  Farm pickup customers can, of course, drop them off when you come to pick up your new order.  

***We can only re-use OUR cartons or boxes. Please re-use or recycle other boxes or egg cartons elsewhere.***

We redact your personal information found on your meat boxes when we re-use them, but feel free to redact to redact it yourself without damaging the box if you would like.  

Thanks for helping us re-use our packaging!
