Pigs!

Continuing on yesterday’s farm theme, cows aren’t the only animals running around Hendricks Farm. Either the sow pictured above or her companion, who were both about a week away from producing a litter, is now a mother.

That is indeed a streak of blood across pig’s nose, sustained while battling with her friend for a heaping bucket of beet scraps.

These pigs are evidently at the foreground of Hendricks Farm’s nascent charcuterie operation, something I’m looking forward to following up on.
