DELICIOUS HEALTHY HAPPY
NUTRITIOUS SUSTAINABLE
We believe that to be healthy and produce delicious meat, pigs should be raised naturally outdoors as much as possible, they need to have their feet and snouts in the ground to be healthy.
We now purchase our piglets from local farmer friends after many years of breeding our own. We keep our number of pigs we raise low as they can be hard on the land.
We now raise our pigs from spring til winter, outoors on pasture or in the woods, always with plenty of space to be pigs. We use electric net fencing to keep them from roaming the neighborhood. Our pigs are fed a diet of locally sourced grains, veggies from our market gardens, hay and whatever they find it their grazing area. We do not feed our pigs waste bread or spent brewers grains.
We put alot of time an effort into raising healthy pigs outdoors, our pork is not inexpensive because we put quality time and food into them and careful so they don’t destroy the land.
We use Kelley Meats a USDA inspected facility to process our pork. It is flash frozen, vacuum packed and labelled. Nitrates are used minally for food safety in the smoked items. They do not offer a no nitrate option so if this is a concern of yours for whatever reason then consider not having some items smoked and cured then do that part yourself. We do not use any other butcher at this time.
WHOLE - HALF - 20 POUND BOX
We take orders for our pork starting in early April for fall processing. We do not have pork available in the summer anymore and rarely have any individual cuts for sale.

NEW: All orders must be picked up promptly at the farm on the designated pickup dates. We pickup orders at Kelley’s on designated Fridays, box and label orders, pay the butcher fees and have it ready back at the farm for pickup usually by 5pm. At pickup you pay us the total due and get the itemized list from the butcher. If you cannot make that date then you can also pickup at the butcher (Kelley Meats in Taberg NY, supply your own boxes or cooler for that option and pay your butcher fees to them. You need to settle up with us prior to that or your order will be released. In a few instances we might be able to hold orders for 1 day if we have enough storage space, this must be arranged ahead of time and we charge a $20 fee to hold orders a day. This is because it’s more work for us to handle orders multiple times and stop farm work to meet customers another time.
