Marinated Chuck Steaks

The candy store days have long gone but now as a 40 something, I have a better vice. Butcher shops. I am frequenting a local butcher shop called Porterhouse meat market just north of Tallahassee on the Florida Georgia highway. It has a bit of the mini mart nuance and the best part, fresh cut meats. Faith Johnson and I enjoy being foodies and now we try to make stuff better than a restaurant. This recent round at Porterhouse, I restocked on bacon and picked up some chuck steaks.

10 Reasons Why We decided to Start A Farm

The Florida Panhandle, a region known for its picturesque landscapes and vibrant communities, offers an ideal setting for agricultural pursuits. With a mild climate, fertile soils, and a strong agricultural tradition, the Panhandle beckons aspiring farmers and seasoned growers alike. In this article, we’ll explore ten compelling reasons to consider farming in the Florida Panhandle.

Registered Livestock Pros and Cons

When it comes to raising livestock, whether for meat, milk, or other products, farmers often face a choice between registered and non-registered animals. Registered livestock, which are typically associated with purebred or pedigree breeds, come with their own set of advantages and disadvantages. In this blog post, we’ll explore the pros and cons of raising registered livestock to help farmers make informed decisions about their animal husbandry practices. TnF Farms has both registered and unregistered livestock. The animal’s purpose is dependent on whether or not it is registered. TnF Farms is also a member of the American Guinea Hog Association.

I Need A Break From The Farm Life!

I used to be an avid runner. Before moving to rural Florida, I was running about 10 miles a week in the Jacksonville suburbs. Now that we’re settled in on a farm in the backwoods, running isn’t quite as easy especially when the neighbors’ dogs don’t like me trotting by. Yeah, I’m staying busy at the TnF Farm but its not the same kind of cardio.

The Adventure Never Ends

I went to bed knowing Friday was going to be a busy day. My lovely wife, being clairvoyant about me awakening to sunrise, asked me to let the livestock out to graze the far side of our property. Like most 40 something men, I lack the ability to sleep like I could when I was a teenager and am often up before my alarm.
