ABOUT OUR PASTURE RAISED PORK
ALL PASTURE, ALL THE TIME Our heritage breed, pasture raised pork spends its entire life grazing pastures in the great state of Texas. Our pigs are free to forage as much as they want, and also have access to a corn free, soy free feed that we have mixed to our exact specifications. We manage our pigs with a holistic grazing plan that involves frequent pig moves to give the land time to rest between grazing periods. This allows the grasses to regenerate fully, and makes sure the pigs are constantly being moved to fresh forage.
CHILL PORK IS THE BEST PORK The welfare of our animals is of the upmost importance, so we focus on handling our pigs with as little stress as possible. This ensures the highest quality of life for our animals and the highest quality meat for our customers. We carry that mentality all the way through their life, including processing all our animals at a state inspected facility that is Animal Welfare certified.
A HAPPY, HEALTHY HERD Another important part of our animal welfare program focuses on the treatment of sick animals. We raise our animals in an environment that promotes herd health, but every now and then we will have an animal fall ill. To keep the animal from suffering unnecessarily, we treat the animal , tag them, and immediately pull them from our retail herd. These animals do not enter our food chain.
