Super excited this salve. We’ve been using it on Super excited this salve. We’ve been using it on bug bites from working in the garden for just over a week. It’s made with lavender, white clover, and basil flowers from our gardens as well as a blend of other organic ingredients. It quickly relieves any irritation and it’s got properties to help repel bugs for the future. We will be selling it for $8 for the smaller .5 oz containers. #BugBite #Garden #GardenGuardian #Salve #naturalRemedies

Queen Topanga gave us 9 beautiful Tamworth piglets Queen Topanga gave us 9 beautiful Tamworth piglets this afternoon. We were so excited to get her from @redbarnlivestock last year and even more thrilled with what she helped us produce! Some of these will make beautiful breeders, some for show pigs, and maybe some for feeders! Topanga was the 2023 Pima County Reserve Grand Champion Red AOB, so we are excited to bring her genetics onto the farm. #tamworth #piglets #tams #pigs #showpigs
