We raise free-range pastured Berkshire-mix pigs. Our small herd has about 12 ac to roam in! Berkshires are an old breed of hardy, hairy, mostly black pigs. They have smaller litters and grow slower than your standard industrial pink pig, but they do well outside and produce high quality meat. We do our best to provide our pigs with a good, stress-free, life before they feed our and your family. We sometimes also purchase pigs from other farmers, when we do we make sure they are also raised free-range. When we buy young pigs we keep them till full grown in our free-range setting, when we buy full grown pigs we make sure to have them on our pasture at least for a couple of months.
We get our pigs procced at Quill creek farm, which is a federally inspected facility. Here the pigs get a health and wellness inspection and the carcass is inspected again after slaughter. This is the same level of inspection as required for meat sold in supermarkets. All our sausages are gluten friendly, so made with a gluten free spice mix but not in a separate facility.
We put together a variety of pork packages which all come with a number of free entrance tickets to the farm park! Beside raising pigs and cows (since recently) for meat we also enjoy making items like dried flower wreaths, scrunchies, and beeswax candles, all of which can be found both in our farm store and web shop.
We also deliver, at no extra charge, any order of $75 or over to Saskatoon, Allan, or St. Denis!
