Our Family began raising Tamworth and Gloucestershire Old Spot (GOS) pigs to help us reclaim our rough farmland. Our farm had not been active for
almost 40 years prior to us taking ownership. After researching ways to develop the land back into pastures and hedge rows, we decided that a low
impact, natural, sustainable method was what we would pursue.
The Tamworth and GOS are excellent on pasture. We have successfully used them as brush hogs, rooter tillers, and fertilizers. After they open up the
land, we follow with the planting of pastures. The pigs are put on pastures using rotational grazing. This provides them with the high protein diet they
require, but also allows them to range free. Raising pigs on pasture also has other benefits.
Our pigs are healthy and happy. We do not supplement their diets with antibiotics. Raising them in this low intensive manner provides a low stress
environment where disease is not an issue. The pork from our pigs is delicious! One of our customers remarked that it tastes like pork used to taste,
before factory farms took over.
The meat is typically a little darker than commercial pork. It also has more texture, and more flavor. The Tamworth is best known as a bacon hog,
whereas the GOS is more fatty of an animal; both are excellent on the table.
We sell young piglets, bred gilts, bred sows, and finished animals delivered to a USDA processor. We can ship animals via airfreight; and have shipped
piglets all over the United States.
