Our family is getting ready to process 10 hogs again this year.
Click on the link to watch all six episodes where we show how to make link sausage, scrapple, lard, cracklins, and one of the fine Guenther men even grills up some hog ❤️ for us to try!

The Gunther family have been butchering hogs on their farm in Muddy Pond since 1965. Will the next generation of Guenther family carry on with this fast dyin...

Great Aunt Martha (my grandpa, John Guenther’s, sister) stopped in today and very enthusiastically said,
“We are both Guenther’s, aren’t we”

So, MERRY CHRISTMAS from ALL the Guenther’s!!

It’s always a treat when family pops in the store.
