Pork

Our naturally raised pigs get year-round access to the outdoors and a dirt floor area in the barn. They are grow fat, happy, and are one of our most entertaining livestock animals to hang out with when they're not napping.

The pigs we raise are mixed breed. This means they get the best traits of different breeds and are healthier because of it. Once hogs are on our farm they are not given vaccines, medicated feed or any growth boosters. We believe in proactive wellness and supporting our animals through the following practices.

Our Pigs:

• have large outdoor paddocks with dirt and grass to forage depending on the time of year.
• have unlimited access to fresh water.
• are fed locally grown and milled feed custom blended for us with added probiotics. The feed does include corn and soy from local Nebraska farms that may or may not be gmo. We know local farmers who grow both so it is likely a mix.
• eat grass, herbs, apples, pumpkins, other seasonal produce, raw milk, eggs and scraps from our table.
• have access to wallow in warm weather for cooling off and keeping bugs away.
• have access to indoor shelter at all times.
• are never given steroids, medications, chemical antibiotics, hormone boosters or vaccinations on our farm.
