Pigs will be pigs! If you let them.
The pigs are growing well and eating lots. These pasture raised pigs are going to be healthy and delicious.
Wet pigs! They love it, glad to see they didn’t float away!
Do you love bacon? So do we, especially when it's local pork, cured and smoke ourselves with no nitrates. So good!

Curing some ! We love bacon, and hate nitrates! So, we don’t use any.
Pig life at it's greatest. These gals love fresh pasture. It will take the a little more than a week to turn the section over, before then we'll move them to the next spot.

Pigs will be pigs. Not much stress happening here.
Sleepy pigs.
This morning we picked up 4 little piggies. These happy young ladies will live a good life on the farm until the fall.
They are currently in a large pen, and will be moved into a larger pasture when they are trained on the hot wire. They’ll move through paddocks all summer made up of pasture and forest.
It's been a while since we've posted and much has changed here on the farm over the past few years. We're happy to announce that this summer we will be raising premium pastured pork.
Our pork will be sold by the half hog and possibly by the quarter. We will have more information soon. If you're interested and want to be added to our list, please send us a message.
