How We Raise Our Pastured Pork

All of our hogs are raised on pasture using the following:

  • Rotational grazing behind our cattle and contained by polywire or electric netting
  • When too young for rotation, or during extreme periods of cold or heat, they are either kept in grow-out pens on pasture with shelter, larger hogs are kept on 1-2 fenced acres with shelter
  • Free of antibiotics and hormones added to feed
  • Biochar made on our farm or sourced from another local producer is used in the feed on occasion as well as apple cider vinegar with the mother and a little bit of Redmond conditioner (volcanic clay and mineral mined in the USA)
  • Vaccine and antibiotic free unless otherwise disclosed in the item description -- life saving measures will always be taken for our animals when necessary (case in point, we had an outbreak of pneumonia in our hogs November of 2024 which required antibiotics to treat one young piglet and one breeding sow, and the rest of the herd had to be vaccinated to prevent further spread)
  • All breeding stock are vaccinated for pneumonia at the time of purchase and sows are vaccinated for it before each farrowing; parvovirus vaccine is given once as a piglet to breeding stock.  Any breeding stock that is sent for processing will have these vaccinations disclosed on the product page until the entirety of the meat is sold
  • All piglets born on our farm receive an injection of supplemental iron vitamin at 3 days of age because our soil is severely iron deficient and piglets will become anemic and die without it
  • Corn-free, soy-free, and non-GMO feed from a local mill (main ingredients are peanut and milo) is given throughout the animal's life
  • Only during shortages from our local mill will we resort to feeding conventional feed -- a shortage has not yet occurred
  • Any changes to any of these protocols during an animal's life will be disclosed on the product page when that animal is processed and the meat added to the inventory until it is all sold
