Our Heritage Breeds

We select hogs from a cross of heritage breeds including Duroc, Chester White, and Berkshire. This combination provides ideal characteristics to raise our hogs the traditional way, such as:

  • Exceptional mothering for their young, which provides a nurturing environment.
  • A natural hardiness for outdoor pasture-raising – their natural habitat.
  • Extraordinary marbling, which contributes to juicy, tender pork.
