We produce piglets in small batches!

No factory farming or mass production here! I custom breed each litter to match up with customer requests. Litters are spaced apart so that each gets our full attention through weaning, before the next is born. We hand deliver each piglet, they all get named, we get to know their personalities, and each piglet has a purpose!

Care, thought, attention to detail, and true quality come from doing things in small batches. And that's what we do best 🩷

Instant piglet playground!
The piglets are 3 days old today. They're ready for the whole creep pen! Now they can run & play in a safe zone where mama pig can't step on them. (Having 10 tiny piglets zooming in every direction makes it almost impossible to take a step, even for me!)

Surprise! Our hereford litter is here! 2 days earlier than expected! What a colorful group of 10! Our kids are having great fun naming them with temporary names. Each is so unique that they will be easy to tell apart! Our sow, Shortcake, is a first time mom, let's hear it for her!

Spotlight on Blue! This is a fall Berkshire that will be ready for butcher in 6-8 weeks. He is a happy, energetic boy with outstanding meat quality genetics. Just imagine the most tender roasts and juicy pork chops! And the crispy bacon, of course! Let me know if you or anyone you know is interested in half or the whole!

We often have favorites from each litter, and this guy is totally going to be one of them! He's mellow, affectionate, and sooooo cute with that pink ear! 🩷
