We do have lots of meats running around here, we have javalina which is like a new world pig, quail, and deer. We've been working on getting a deer this year, but the weeds are tall, so far no luck.
The rewards are juicy, but it really does take commitment and engagement which is a form of work and also dedication. Luckily, I have no shortage of topics!
Ah, the garden. Its a labor of love, and we always end up with too much! Not to mention the canning, freezing, pickling, etc. I am excited about it. But the toil is REAL.
