In this episode, I talk with Patrick Milligan from Milligan Ranch in New Mexico. Patrick has a VERY interesting story of how he jumped head first into pig farming. A global pandemic shut his business down overnight. He had to adjust and adjust quickly.

Patreon Support is Requested!

Please consider supporting the podcast (and other efforts - see below) through our NEW Patreon account. If we can garnish enough support, I think we can roll out some great new features for the podcast and beyond.

Podcast Improvements:

More interviews - get back to a weekly schedule but it takes people and topics

Expanded the range of Guest - Processors, Big Producers, small homesteads, Veterinarians, Equipment producers

Incorporate additional research in the progress of the pastured pig industry (news updates, etc)

Beyond Podcast:

The Pastured Pig website

Repository for the Podcast episodes and notes

Resources for information, products, and data pertaining to the industry

The Pastured Pig Directory!

List Pastured Pig operations by state, breed, products offered, services offered

List Veterinarians who have experience in Pastured Pigs

List AI Sources

List Feed Source by conventional, NonGMO, Organic, Soy Free, etc

Provide landing pages for small farms that can’t justify websites yet (thepasturedpig.com/abcfarm)

Create a social media group focused on these efforts (take nothing away from other great groups)

If things really grow, then we are looking at additional features like full podcast transcripts, video/audio tutorials on how to setup and market your farm business, management tips and tricks, and a variety of other great content.

I will make this promise to you. I will not take away from what we have already established. We will still offer great complete interviews on the podcast even if there is zero support.

Your support will help us take this to the next level.

My goal is to see everyone have a chance to be represented on this platform.

Thanks for listening and thanks in advance for your support.
