Why Berkshire Pigs?
Our Berkshire pigs are raised on pasture from weaning to market, spending their days rooting, grazing, foraging, and exploring rotational paddocks under Colorado sunshine. Because pigs are omnivores and cannot thrive on grass alone, we supplement their diet with a locally milled roasted corn and soybean ration balanced with vitamins and minerals to ensure proper nutrition.
Berkshires are known for their gentle, curious nature, and ours are no exception. We give them the space to live as pigs should, with room to roam, root, and socialize. We never use added hormones or routine antibiotics, focusing instead on quality nutrition, good genetics, and low-stress animal care. The result is exceptional pork that's flavorful, beautifully marbled, and raised with care from start to finish.
A Little History
The Berkshire breed originated in England over 300 years ago and quickly became famous for its exceptional meat quality. Known as the “wagyu of pork,” Berkshires were prized by royalty for their rich flavor and fine texture. Today, they remain one of the most sought-after heritage breeds, celebrated for their marbling and taste that modern commercial pork simply can’t match.
From our family to yours, thank you for supporting a way of farming that values integrity and tradition. We’re proud to share the goodness of our Berkshires with you.
