Pigs

pasture pig palaceWe raise pigs on certified organic pasture, purchasing them as 7-week-old piglets in the spring and harvesting them in the fall. 

Our pigs root, forage, and wallow in a fenced section of pasture with their skid-mounted pig house (we call it the Pasture Pig Palace), which provides shelter for the pigs and allows us to move them easily to a new section every other day.  We supplement the pigs’ foraging and rooting with organic pig feed, produce from our organic garden, and organic cow’s milk from a local dairy.

The Okanogan farmer who provided our piglets in prior years retired, so this year we’ll purchase piglets from a farm in Wilbur. Our kids love this since Charlotte’s Web is of course a favorite.
