Farmer Sausage - A Family Tradition
The tradition of Farmer Sausage dates back to the days when families would gather to butcher the pig (or pigs, if several families were involved). What followed was a bustle of activity... slicing, cutting, washing, packing, grinding and salting, and someone was no doubt tending to the rendering kettle. And when the moon shone over the cowshed that night, the hams would have been hung to smoke, and without a doubt, some industrious housewives would have preserved quarts and quarts of precious home ground pork sausage to feed the family all year long. The tradition of farmer sausage lives on, but with the advent of the freezer, canning is no longer a necessity. It is with pride we bring you 100% pure pork sausage, ground in the heart of a mennonite community.
