Josh's Farmers Market

This weekkend was by far was the best we have seen at Josh’s. Thanks to all of our friends that stopped by, and to the new friends we made. I appreciate all of you, your support and friendship.

Obviously, the fresh beef was a huge favorite. It is rare (get it…rare :) my attempt at humor)  that we are able to offer Angus beef that fresh (packaged Friday before Saturday’s market), but we will do our best for more in the future. I’m looking forward to the comments next Saturday from our friends that grilled the fresh beef.

Cooking Tip for Grass Fed Beef: Cook it a little slower than normal. Remember that there is not nearly as much fat in our beef as the meat you may be acustomed to cooking from the grocery store.

I will make another trip to my butcher this week to pick up our most recently packaged Angus beef. If you would like fresh Angus beef, contact me though our website ASAP to secure your order before it is frozen. I can deliver larger local orders.

See Ya’ Next Saturday @ Josh’s

Cattle Complex

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

Fund buying and midday wholesale beef price strength lifted CME live cattle. Cattle contracts began the session on relatively solid footing after buying from Monday’s futures advances carried over into Tuesday.

Bullish traders also priced in what that think will be no worse than $90- per-hundredweight cash-cattle prices, based on profitable beef packer margins and Tuesday’s wholesale beef buying interest rush.

Cash-basis cattle bid from packers cropped up at $89 to $90 per hundredweight versus $93 to $94 offers from cattle sellers. Fed cattle last week sold for $91 to mostly $92.

Futures made a bullish statement after spot-April overshot the 10-day moving average resistance target with the help of spreading into the contract out of deferred months. Actively-traded June surpassed recent highs on the way to a nine-month top.

April and June also touched off buy orders what were waiting above the market.

Far cattle months finished positively on spreading into December out of October. Plus, the weak dollar underpinned distant cattle contracts because of the implication for improved beef exports ahead.

April live cattle closed up 105 points, or 1.1%, at 92.77 cents. June ended up 65 points, or 0.7%, at 91.25 cents.

Feeder cattle finished higher on live cattle’s upturn and more buying after futures’ steep run up Monday.

Steady-to-stronger cash feeder cattle prices, and spreaders who bought May and sold March, contributed for market advances that launched all months except March to new contract highs.

Fences

Perry Farms Fences

Perry Farms Fences

Fences are constructed to confine or restrict. Confinement is good for animals that need protection from the environment or predators. Restriction can provide safety from dangerous entities or habitats that may lead to injury.

I construct physical fences on Perry Farms to provide safety for our livestock. These fences act as barriers or safe-havens from poisonous plants or hazardous highways close to our farm. All of our physical fences have a purpose, just like all faculties on our farm.

Some fences are not visible with the human eye, these fences are not physical, and they are not constructed of wooden posts, barbed wire, and staples. I am referring to the fences we (humans) build that restrict our movement or ability to grow. Mental barriers can become more confining that any amount of steel or wood ever erected. Barriers can limit us from expanding our horizons, enhancing our education or growing to reach full potential.

We always remind ourselves and our children that the only fences on Perry Farms are the physical ones, there are no limitations to potential. Children need positive reinforcement from adults. This guidance and security enables them to grow without restrictions, devise new and better ways to overcome failures and become successful.

In a world full of negatives or fences, it’s critical that Perry Farms exude a positive outlook for our children,while providing a good education with unlimited opportunities to grow and learn.

Perry Farms has fences, but only physical ones; our potential is unrestricted, our prosperity is imminent.
