The Ardent Homesteader

Located on the western edge of the Hudson Highlands. Raising heritage breed pigs on pasture and beautiful, heritage, north Devon cattle on native grass pastures. We sell beef, pork, and eggs.

PORK YOU CAN FEEL GOOD ABOUT
We raise pigs the old-fashioned way on pasture and in the woodlands so they are free to forage and play. In late fall, you might find them face deep in a giant pumpkin, brought over by a neighbor who no longer needs it for autumnal decor.

A few days each week, Dottie Audrey's Bakery loads up a feast of pre-consumer scraps to supplement the pigs diets and help the bakery reduce food waste.

Yes, our pigs live pretty great lives.

Growing pigs this way is not always easy, and saying goodbye is bittersweet. But its fulfilling to know that the meat we enjoy is truly humanely raised not to mention delicious.
