About the Farm

Background

Located high up on the mountain near Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, this family-run farm has become known for its dedication to raising Idaho Pasture Pigs and Berkshire pigs for breedstock and pork, alongside a variety of rare chicken breeds for eggs and chick sales. The farm also boasts a small flock of registered Finnsheep, providing wool and lambs. Over the years, the farm has cultivated a reputation for quality, not quantity, and a deep respect for the land and animals.

Practices

All animals on the farm are pasture or woodlot raised, enjoying a diet supplemented with 100% Non-GMO, corn and soy-free, locally milled feed. The pigs and chickens roam freely, foraging and behaving naturally in the sunlit fields and woodlots. This method ensures that the animals grow in a healthy, stress-free environment, which in turn produces exceptional products. The farm's philosophy centers on treating the land and animals with the utmost care and respect, striving always for the highest quality produce.

The Rest

The farm offers a variety of products including pork sold by the half and whole, eggs, chicks, wool, and lambs. The higher elevation and southern exposure of the farm provide more sunny days, which the animals seem to appreciate. The farm's commitment to traditional, uncompromising quality farming practices has garnered a loyal customer base who value the exceptional products and ethical farming methods.
