We operate a small heritage farm here in Silverwood, MI. We raise Tamworth, Large Black Hogs, and Gloucestershire Old Spots on pasture. Our pigs glean over 80% of their nutrition off of grass and are only supplemented 2lbs of 15% hog feed per day during the months when the pasture is readily available. In Michigan, thats about 8 months out of the year. In addition to the grass, our pigs also enjoy a heavy diet of all natural foodstuff generously donated by our friends and neighbors here in the community. A bounty of apples, walnuts, pumpkins, pears and pulp are supplied by a network of supporters to help us provide our hogs with a diverse and healthy ration. This in turn helps us provide our customers with a final product that you would have a hard time finding anywhere else.

We truly believe we have been blessed with all things that really matter. Our family is able to help conserve these wonderful heritage breeds, which have changed so little in the last 100 years. Our farm continues to be a work in progress, but we are so thankful to be able to share the rewards with a warm and welcoming community of people who believe, as we do, that there is a right way to raise livestock. Pasture based and all natural, we raise our animals free of hormones and antibiotics.
