An investment in our meats is an investment in your health, the health of our soils, our waterways, and our regional food communities. Your investment provides good jobs and living wages.

We believe we are raising the highest quality pork you can find, regeneratively.

Our Organically raised Heritage Breed Hogs live outside on grassy pasture for their whole lives and are fed an Organic grain and alfalfa mix that is grown by us on our farm. They also enjoy the perks of living on an Organic vegetable farm, eating squash, carrots, potatoes and more. The quality of our pork is rare, we control the quality from seed to end of life.  We are very proud to grow the feed our animals eat right here on the farm in a regenerative way, Organically, reducing our carbon footprint, ensuring there are no chemicals or GMOs in the feed they are eating, and improving our soils.

If you are what you eat, eats…. it’s very important to know what the diets of animals we eat are. We believe an Organic and regeneratively grown feed that is grown on our farm to raise our pigs produces a meat that is more nutritious for you, and better for our soils and waterways.
