Meet Petunia, Penelope and Rocky!

These perky piggies are a threatened registered breed called Gloucestershire Old Spots. Also known as “The Orchard Pig” they are a historic pig breed known for their distinctive white coat with black spots and are are the oldest spotted pedigreed pig breeds known.

They are excellent foragers and grazers and are known for their docility, intelligence, and prolifically.  Their meat is not the other white meat, it is red, marbled and flavorful. These breeds are dual purpose, historically grown for pork and lard.

Our pigs are raised strictly using all natural practices, on natural pastures, producing high quality healthy pork. They are fed diverse pasture, supplemental fermented certified organic grains sourced from a local reputable farmer as well as naturally raised grains and produce grown here on the farm. If need be, they are medicinally treated holistically and naturally.
