"One Happy Pig"

I much prefer "Happy Pigs" over "Angry Birds" and would be delighted to feed our swine on bird eggs, even if it meant being pelted by a bunch of disgruntled fowl. Unfortunately, we have no such source of protein for our porkers and have to rely upon rice bran, which we receive as a by-product from our rice mill. This all revolves around our 400 acres of rice production, half of which is now producing two crops per year. That said, a key link in the production chain has been secured.We have our combine! Pa Thom tried for a grant to purchase the machine, but there was not enough money to fund all of the grant submissions. But, Pa got the money for his new toy from Church of Living Water in Olympia, WA; Church of the Open Door in Clinton, IA; Gateway Fellowship in Fulton, IL; and Dr. Mike Callan, an FCOPI Board Member. Now all we have to do is figure out how to haul the combine so we can do custom harvesting in order to raise funds to plant some new churches. Thank you![nggallery id=956]
