I was born and raised 20 minutes from Boston, MA. At the age of 17, I was diagnosed with Anxiety. My personal experience with the prescribed medication was NOT POSITIVE. So I decided to find better way. I didn't know it at the time but, that was the BEGINNING for me! I have been “FINDING A BETTER WAY” in all areas in my life ever since. Better ways of how to create a modern homestead affordably, and a better way to provide my family with healthy foods, and so….. much MORE!
At Lumnah Acres we hope our experiences can help guide you to find YOUR BETTER WAY! Please join us in sharing our journey with you, let us be a guide to Modern Homesteading, Self-Sufficiency, and FREEDOM for you!

I agree how perfect that table worked out, sturdy, good height, perfect width, looks beautiful, and Andy & Doug wished they had it for all their workshops. This video speaks for itself, Lumnah Acres raised and provided the perfect animals for this workshop, built the perfect facilities, and Hand Hewn Farm instruction/demonstration of butchery was over the top! A great three days was had by all! Anyone reading my comment here please take my word on this, .....if Lumnah Acres and Hand Hewn Farm can put together another workshop, and it's something you are really interested in, this is a workshop not to be missed.

Dennis St.Germaine - I'm really wishing I was there!!

@dennisst.germaine3497 6 лет назад

Terri Poulin Well thanks to Lumnah Acres we can be there in this video series!

@tpfarm3535 6 лет назад

Dennis St.Germaine - Yes! I am so thankful for Al hosting the workshop and putting so much time into these videos! I've been butchering my own animals for 40 years and have never experienced this form of butchering. I really like how Doug & Andy have continued the love & respect Al did while raising these pigs, through the butchering process. It's not just a piece of meat but still a loved on animal fulfilling it's purpose. I wholeheartedly respect that with these wonderful educators!

We butchered our Gloucester Old Spot in Devon England today. Your videos and explanations are FAB, thank you for sharing them.

I love this series Al!!! I have watched it about 12 times!!!

@billsbullets 6 лет назад

This series of videos you’ve created is invaluable. So nice to have so you can go back and refer to them. What’s so amazing to me is the respect that is shown to the animal. Every little bit is used and handled with such care. Thanks again for sharing this Al. Have a great and wonderful day.

I really enjoyed your video. I just won a half a pig from our Pomeroy, WA Gun Club Youth Group which included cutting and wrapping from Dayton, WA Cut and Wrap! (I bought 200 tickets, not caring if I won. LOL) I am pleased with the whole process, since we raise Appaloosa horses and it has been a while since I bought a pig. I would especially like to thank the narrator for speaking in a very understandable, calm voice. You could tell this is not your first rodeo. Thanks! Oh, and always good to pay it back so I donated a really nice Remington 12 Gauge 870 express with youth stock. Good deal for everyone!

@LittleMountainRanch 6 лет назад

Love Hand Hewn Farm! I've watched a few videos of them doing this and they are always top notch. Well done!

@kiml1508 6 лет назад

This really brings back memories. When I was a little girl we raised pigs of our own. I'm not able to have a homestead or raise animals now but I'm glad there is a large community of people my age who did not grow up on farms learning the old ways and becoming interested in being food self reliant. Well done on the beautiful life you're building!

@richardbohlingsr3490 6 лет назад

Still very informative and clear explanations of what is being done. Great looking meat Al, you did a very good job raising the pigs. We were always told that when you process a pig the only loss is the Oink!

@rsoubiea 6 лет назад

He makes it look so easy right? His knives must be VERY well honed. This video was interesting to watch, good demonstration. I appreciate the lack of blood and gore, it makes it so much easier to pay attention to the task at hand.

@LumnahAcres 6 лет назад

We made sure we bleed out the pigs during the first process which in returns makes the slaughtering and butchering a lot cleaner

@daniellesduckheadhomestead3127 6 лет назад

Thanks for doing these videos, the information is so valuable. Just a quick suggestion when, he was seperating the ham from the middle portion it would have better if you could have gotten a close up of where he cut.

@JohnAvantiBK 6 лет назад

@andrewpryor8301 6 лет назад

very useful info

@tpfarm3535 6 лет назад

Wow! I'm so impressed with your table size! Did you plan it that perfect? This was an amazing video! Did you hang your meat before cutting? Your side of pig looks stiff which may be allowing these beautiful cuts. I immediately start butchering after harvest - that may be my first mistake! I've never had my meat just lay there! If you could rig a camera directly over the table for everyone to see the cuts being made, that would be awesome!! Doug explains so well what he's doing & why!

@LumnahAcres 6 лет назад

Yes we planned the table to be the right size. We hung the carcass overnight to let it chill for easier cutting. A camera directly over the table would be awesome!

@tpfarm3535 6 лет назад

Lumnah Acres - How cold was it that evening? I'm assuming you just hung them in the outdoor kitchen, but I guess if night time temps are 50 or lower, it's going to significantly drop carcass temp! I would need to rig up another pulley system to hoist them up...it's doable!! 😂

@LumnahAcres 6 лет назад

We were down in the 30s. We hung one pig in the kitchen and one pig on the meat pole for the night

@tpfarm3535 6 лет назад

Lumnah Acres - good to know! I have another goat to butcher - I'm waiting for a little warmer temps right now. My highs are 34 so hanging something overnight may freeze! I will definitely try hanging first next time.

@RS-jj7yj 6 лет назад

Good morning Al. I continue to watch, enjoy and love your videos. I would like to ask a question and I would understand if you chose not to answer it. I was just wondering what these two gentleman charge to come do this pig Harvest with you, just so in case somebody else would like to do that they would have an idea as to what it may cost. If that's too personal question please don't feel obligated to answer. Have a great day sir.

@LumnahAcres 6 лет назад

That is not too personal. There website www.handhewnfarm.com list there pricing.

@RS-jj7yj 6 лет назад

Lumnah Acres Thank you

@kirstenwhitworth8079 6 лет назад

Happy Thanksgiving!

@BullittMcQueen1 6 лет назад

The man doing the cutting kept praising what a nice pig you raised. Some thick-cut and smoked bacon would be good.

@ridlboxlevitt7473 5 лет назад

when do you do the pig harvest class. I would really like to attend as soon ill be raising pigs too.

@tessamcarthur7128 3 года назад

How long do you hang the pig before cutting it up?

@shawncockrell6007 4 года назад

You going to be doing this Al ?

@anthonysharp9136 6 лет назад

Hmm, bone-in bacon sounds kinda good.

@americannomad513 6 лет назад

Did Pluto get any scraps from this whole process?

@LumnahAcres 6 лет назад

Not yet! Lol. The chickens did

@BullittMcQueen1 6 лет назад

Lumnah Acres -- I am sure Pluto would like some scraps also. I was under the impression that people and dogs could get worms from raw pork. But after reading on the Internet I found that the chances are slim these days because pigs are no longer commercially fed raw meat. And you also raised your pigs yourself. I also read that meat could be frozen for two weeks and then thawed and fed to a dog to reduce the chance of worms. But, again, the chances these days of dogs getting worms from pork is slim.
