Regenerative farming is where it’s at. Why? Because unlike conventional methods, it works with nature instead of against it. (Yes! Working together. What a cool concept.) Regenerative farming revitalizes the soil, improves crop resilience, and creates a healthier environment for future generations.

By focusing on soil health, biodiversity, and natural ecosystems, this approach helps restore nutrients to the earth, capture carbon, and improve water cycles. 🌾🐝 (Did someone say water?)

That’s why we’re bringing you awesome meat, eggs & produce from farms like . Healthier food and a healthier planet is good for us all. 🌍💚

When you choose to eat healthy, you’re not just fueling your body—you’re investing in your future.

🎃Don’t be scared to repurpose your pumpkins after the festivities. Here’s some tricks:

1. Compost it: If you have a compost bin, add the pumpkin. It’s a great way to enrich your soil for the next planting season.
2. Treat wildlife: Cut up the pumpkin and place pieces outside for birds, squirrels, and other small animals. Make sure it’s free of paint or wax.
3. Create pumpkin puree: If your pumpkin is still fresh, you can roast it, blend it, and make puree for soups, pies, or muffins.
4. Roast the seeds: Clean and roast the seeds with spices for a tasty and nutritious snack.
5. Pumpkin body scrub: Mix pumpkin puree with brown sugar and a bit of coconut oil for an exfoliating, all-natural body scrub.
6. Donate to farms or animal shelters: Many farms and animal shelters will happily take leftover pumpkins as a treat for their animals—just call ahead to check!
7. Make a bird feeder: Hollow out the pumpkin, fill it with birdseed, and hang it from a tree for a festive and eco-friendly bird feeder.

Have a great way to reuse pumpkins? 👻Tell us in the comments ⬇️.

First rule of Vote Club: back the one who doesn’t like Hi**er.

10/22/2024

Our food doesn’t just appear on shelves—it’s the result of hard work, dedication, and care from farmers across the country. Yet, many farmers in the U.S. struggle to earn a living wage despite feeding our communities. 🍎🌽

Paying farmers a sustainable wage isn’t just about fairness; it’s about ensuring a future where small, local farms can thrive. When farmers are paid fairly, they can continue to grow healthy, high-quality food, practice sustainable farming methods, and support their families. 🧑‍🌾💚

A food system built on exploitation can never truly be sustainable. Let’s support policies and practices that ensure our farmers earn what they deserve—for their labor and for nurturing the land that feeds us all.

Store Update 🐷: Hi guys! So many have been asking when we’re going to open so we wanted to share an update.

We’re moving along and have the design plans done, equipment list, food vender contracts signed and construction starting soon. 🙏🏻

Unfortunately, permits are taking a bit longer than we’d like but rest assured, we’re working hard to get up and running as fast as possible.

So what does that all mean? We’re probably looking at a March open. In the meantime, sign up for our email list for store updates, deals and news. And if you haven’t already, take our survey so we can stock the store with the things you need most. Visit us at theflyingpigmarket.com (Link in Bio).

Thanks so much and we look forward to meeting everyone soon! 🩷, PG x

Immigrants are the backbone of our farms, working behind the scenes to keep our food system running. Without their hard work, the fresh food we enjoy every day wouldn’t be possible.

”Even the smallest act of service, the simplest act of kindness, is a way to honor those we lost; a way to reclaim that spirit of unity that followed 9/11” 🇺🇸- President Obama

The once great US agricultural giant is spending billions of dollars importing fruit and vegetables while subsidizing feed crops like soy and corn that are losing money and contributing to our Standard American Diet, called SAD.

Nearly 2/3 of the fresh farmed fruit and veggies we eat are imported and it’s costing us on every level. Wreaking havoc on our farmers and our health.

By importing produce, we’re expanding our carbon footprint and we’re eating less healthy fruit and veggies. Support local families, and family farms. Fight for food not feed!
