Hogtoberfest and Tribe - HELP 6
What in God's name is Hogtoberfest? Well, ladies and gentlemen, it is a the gathering of people at Nature's Image Farm in Ohio for learning the old ways of slaughtering and processing hogs. As you will find out in this episode of the Healthy Lifestlye Podcast, it was much more than just processing pork. Hogtoberfest was about learning the old ways and rituals and adopting them. It was about sharing the experience, learning skills and breaking bread (and drinking meads, ciders and beers). Most importantly, it was about forging new relationships and building a small community, a tribe, of homesteaders, urban farmers, beekeepers and their families. In a world of "plastic fantastic", smart phones, technology and isolation, gatherings like these are necessary. The lone wolf depicted in Hollywood and today's culture is a lie. Instead, a group of like-minded individuals, the tribe, is necessary to get stuff done, share resources and lean on each other when "times get tough, or even when they don't."

The Sample Hour 125 Hogtoberfest 2016 - The Lumbersquatches at Natures Image Farm discuss Hogtoberfest and what it meant to them. This is a GREAT podcast, and it reminds me of our hunting camps in the spring: telling stories, having a laugh, remembering the old ways, and cracking a beer at 10 AM in the morning.
