WHO ARE WE?

Our farm is on 170 acres mostly wooded property located in Orange County VA. Our pigs are born and raised in the forest, mainly foraging in the woods.

Our animals are from the rare heritage breeds: Large Black https://largeblackhogassociation.org/ and Red Wattles. Those breeds are known for their good health and foraging capabilities. Our pigs are living their entire life in the woods. We raise the pigs for selling pork to the consumers.

We can deliver our products to the doorstep of our customers and also sell pork on regional farmer’s markets.

OUR MISSION

We supplement the diet with spent grain from local breweries, mash from local distilleries and commercial hog feed.

We ensure that our animals are always in a good health, have access to fresh clean water and access from heat and cold.

We raise pigs from rare heritage breeds like Red Wattle and Large Black for directly sales to consumer online or on local farmers’ markets.

Red Wattle Boar

Red Wattles are also rare heritage breed,

Piglets

The piglets are with their moms for at least 8 weeks. 3 to 4 months after
birthing the females are back with the boars for the next cycle. This provides
the females with adequate time to recover, rest and gain weight on a separate
20 acres farm.

Piglets

Our Red Wattles females have been with our Large Black hogs,
the piglets are black and all with wattles.

Parents

All parents enjoy being raised on a separate wooded/pastured farm. We
target towards late winter/early spring births to take full advantage of
fresh vegetation after weaning and autumn nut (acorns etc) availability
to ensure the optimum taste.
