While selling butcher hogs, I have had many people ask, "are they market price?"
Well, my response is hell no, they are not market price as they are not market hogs.
Farm raised hogs see sunlight, pasture, and get more attention, love, and care then a market hog. Our breeding hogs have names (Charlie, Eddie, Bertha, Betty, Sally, etc...) not just a number. They recieve daily pets and come running to the fence when they see us, much like a dog.
Commercial market hogs are raised in a confinement building with thousands of other hogs, never seeing the outside world, and only getting minimal hands on attention from people (I think of an assembly line at a factory).
Our farm does not use antibiotics, steroids, or vaccinations. Only Ivermectin for parasites and utilizing a closed herd method to avoid introducing unwanted health problems.
The result of our pasture raised farm hogs is a deep red, marbled and flavorful meat. You get what you pay for. Our farm is not market price.
Thank you for reading.
