Learning how to raise a year's worth of meat is pivotal in building resiliency. The good news is that there are many ways to go about this. In today's Pantry Chat Podcast, we're discussing how to break down how many animals you need to raise (or buy) for a year's worth of meat for your family.

There are many caveats to consider, and we go into more detail (with examples) in the blog post that accompanies this video. You can check it out here: https://homesteadingfamily.com/howto...
