About the Farm
Background
Located in west central Illinois, this family farm has become known for providing high-quality heritage pork. The farm raises Large Black and Duroc hogs, breeds celebrated for their gourmet taste and pasturing ability. Over time, their pork has gained popularity among restaurant chefs and home cooks alike, making its way onto local menus and into stores.
Practices
The hogs are raised naturally outdoors where they can root, eat grass, and thrive in a humane environment. The emphasis on sunshine, fresh air, and ample space for the animals to roam contributes to the quality of the pork. The farm's commitment to raising heritage breeds like Large Black and Duroc hogs, known for their fine-grained, sweet-scented meat, underscores their dedication to traditional and natural farming methods.
The Rest
The farm's meat is processed in a local USDA inspected butcher shop and is available in bundles. They also offer breeding stock. Customers can purchase their products online, in local stores, and enjoy them at local restaurants.
