We raise largely Tamworth//Berkshire/Old Spot crosses (some are more mutt than that!). We buy piglets from other farmers like ourselves that think that hogs should have outdoor spaces to hang out. They spend as much of the year outdoors as we can manage, housed in their movable “pig palace” which is rotated through our lush pastures. We utilize their natural rooting tendencies to control weeds and break up sod prior to planting a field to crops. In the winter, they live in our winter palace, where they still have outdoor access every day, and are given abundant hay (cut from our pastures) to eat, nest in, and frolic in (if you’ve ever seen them given a fresh load of hay, they definitely frolic). They are fed a certified organic ration from Stone House Grain in Hudson, made from grains grown in the Hudson Valley. They also receive a generous share of our "reject" vegetables, efficiently recycling our produce into pork!

Bring home a quarter, half, or whole hog in either the spring or fall. Customers are charged a flat per-pound price and receive the full variety of cuts, from ham and bacon through chops and sausage. You get approximately 35 lbs of meat from a quarter hog. If you were to buy one-quarter of a hog, you would take home something similar to this list:
5 lbs bacon, 1 ham roast, 1 butt roast, 1 loin roast, spare ribs, 2 ham steaks, 4 packs of pork chops, one smoked hock, and 6 lbs of sausage.
