Pigs on Pasture are happy and healthy pigs! Our pastured pork has incredible flavor, customers rave about the quality of the meat! We raise heritage pigs (rare breeds of Tamworth and Berkshire) on our farm. These breeds are known for their ability to thrive outdoors and produce high quality meat. The pigs have access to the outdoors at birth and they are eager to browse through the grass and soil for worms, roots and grubs. They receive a diverse diet of cheese, vegetables from the market garden, pumpkins, day old bread and apple and pear drops.
We process the pigs at 7 to 8 months. Their hanging weight after slaughter ranges from 130 to 200 lbs. You will get back approximately 70% of the hanging weight in meat cuts. Confused by what pork cuts come from the carcass? click here.
