We welcomed the most unique & colorful litter of piglets early Saturday morning! A customer requested hereford/Berkshire cross piglets and we couldn't wait to see how those genetics played out! We are thrilled at the beautiful markings and patterns! What a fun experience for us! Even more exciting is the growth & meat quality these piglets will have 😉

Another side project is complete! Introducing our Turkey Trotter 😂 The wheels lower when we need to make a move and raise back up to park the Trotter for the day. So easy to push these commercial whites to fresh ground every morning.
Turkeys will be ready the week of Thanksgiving if anyone is interested 😉 Located in central Wisconsin.

Early morning grunts, yawns, and stretches 🥱 I'm not talking about the men in our lives (ha!). This is how piglets wake up every morning!

Why yes, we've started another project instead of finishing the barn siding 🙃

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!
