Forested Pork

 

***Due to inflation and the ongoing effects of rapidly rising feed, fuel, and equipment costs our pork production has been indefinitely suspended***


 

Unlike 95% of North America’s pig population that live from birth to death in crowded factory farms, our pigs are kept in forest paddocks where they are allowed to exhibit their instinctive “pigness” God gave them. We move our pigs frequently through the woods so they always have forage available. Our pigs help convert brushy forest into partially wooded pasture by rooting up brush, briers, and other scrub while they search for food. Pigs love the forest as it is cool and shady in the heat of summer and it provides a place for them to play and hunt for nuts, roots, berries, and grass to eat.
