    ***** About Living Traditions Homestead *****
    Living Traditions Homestead is all about living a simple and sustainable way of life. We believe the world has gotten too “busy” and that people are missing out on many of the true blessings this world has to offer. We started as a small urban homestead in Gilbert, AZ and after the city grew up around us, decided it was time leave corporate America and take a big leap of faith by moving our family to the Missouri Ozarks.
    We put out new videos every week! We hope you will become part of our homestead family by subscribing to our channel and watching as we give up the rat race and live simpler, more fulfilling life in the country.

    They love that Kevin came into the cage with them. We are raising 2 IPP’s now named John Hamm and Kevin Bacon. They go to freezer camp the end of July. I love that we are raising our food.

    My brother raised a pig as a 4H project. She had a great personality. She and our dog would run up and down the wire fence between them. I'm not sure if she thought she was a dog or the dog thought he was a pig, but they really enjoyed each other's company.
    The dog would run up to you and plop down at your feet to have his belly rubbed. So the little piglet adopted the same practice. It was really cute until she got up to 350 lbs. Then you have to jump back to avoid getting your feet crushed.

    Good morning everyone! The IPP's are a fantastic breed! Always good to see new life come to the farm! On a keto note: made coconut and strawberry popsicles for my granddaughter's birthday today. So good! ( 1 can coconut cream, 1 can coconut milk, 1lb frozen strawberries, thawed and drained, 1/3 tsp pure stevia powder, blend together) Hope everyone has a great weekend 😁

    Hope it works well for you. We just built a bit of a wooden frame to put the trough in. Pigs love fruit too! If you have farm stands or vegees and fryit that the local store cant sell the p*gs love them! And are fun to watch them chase melons and such around before they break them open!

    Your homestead may feel complete for now but at some point those wheels will possibly be turning and you'll be itching to add some new animals (a different breed of ducks, chickens, etc...)!! That Toro mower is what professional landscapers use and it will be nice to be able to mow through damp grass and twigs!! Those piglets are adorable!! Hopefully we will get to see how the blackberry bushes, raspberry bushes, and the orchards are doing!! Take Care and God Bless!!

    One of the main reasons people love the IPPs is that, for a larger pig, they are easy and relatively safe as full size breeder pigs and the babies get to harvest size almost as fast as the typical breeds(which are more dangerous when they are at breeding stock size). I think it says a lot that Kevin and Sarah purchase IPP feeder pigs instead of typical breed feeder pigs.
