We
sell our MOFGA certified organic pork by the cut and by the whole
or half pig. We raise our pigs on pasture and woodland with lots
of room to run and root and wallow. They are typically raised
for eight to ten months and are fed less than factory-raised hogs.
This allows for a more marbled meat and ensures they will work
the land in search of shrubs and roots to snack on. We offer any
cut our customers request, taking orders when we don’t have
something in stock. We make six different types of sausage, bone
in chops, bone out chops, tenderloin, Canadian bacon, smoked bacon,
fresh belly, loin roasts, smoked hams, fresh hams, ham steaks,
country ribs, spare ribs, baby back ribs, Boston butt roast, and
rolled roast. Our customers notice the superiority of our pork
to factory raised pork and seem to appreciate the selection of
cuts we offer.
Pasture-raised
pork has experienced considerable attention in the last few years.
As more light is shed on the cruelties of the factory hog farms,
people increasingly look for meats that are raised in a natural
environment, not confined and force fed and not pumped full of
antibiotics and growth hormones. Much has been written about the
good fat of the pasture-raised pigs. The pigs we raise are not
bred for confinement and indoor living. They have fat, which has
been bred out of the factory raised hog, which gives the meat
more flavor, better texture and color, and keeps the meat moist
and tender instead of dry and stringy like most conventionally
raised pork. People come back to our stand at farmer’s markets
raving about the difference from supermarket pork.
