What do you feed bacon? In raising our happy Iberian Pigs, we know their proper nutrition contributes to the nutrition in the mouth-watering pork they make. That’s why we choose natural non-GMO feeds as well as healthy pasture crops for their meals. That said, not all feeds are equal. We have multiple groups of pigs who have unique nutritional...

Every restaurant has a burger. Some are basic, while others have more “personality” to them. I’ve seen almost anything atop a burger, including fried eggs, an 8 ounce block of cream cheese, fried chicken, guacamole, cole slaw, and the list goes on.

Every fall, we have the farm tour, an organized tour open to any local farm (even hobby farms) who would like to participate.
