Rugged Root Farms

Rugged Root Farms is offering the opportunity to enjoy our pasture raised chickens and pasture raised pork in 2018. Our chickens live their lives outdoors, on our 19 Missouri acres, eating as much fresh green salad, bugs, and local GMO-free grain as they desire. We refuse to use any herbicides, pesticides, antibiotics, or drugs of any kind as a matter of principle. We do our best to ensure that they live happy, healthy, stress-free lives. Our pigs, acquired from local breeders, live their entire stay on our farm out on pasture where they enjoy doing what pigs do best: playing in the mud, soaking up the sunshine, rootin' for bugs/tubers, turning the pasture, and munching on wild walnuts/acorns from the farm. They have access to an unlimited supply of antibiotic free, non-GMO feed from a local farm but enjoy a diet largely of seconds from our homestead and whatever they forage from our woods and pastures. They are moved to fresh ground at least once a week keeping them clean and healthy.
