Heritage Pork
We let our pigs forage and develop naturally on a Southern Oregon hillside surrounded by oak trees, giving them plenty of instinctual foraging, great for muscle tone development, super happy pigs, unparalleled flavor, and a nutrient-rich, clean source of vitamins and minerals. When compared to meat found in grocery stores - the quality resulting from our chosen farming practice is like comparing night and day.
Pastured Poultry
Our chickens live outdoors on fresh pasture. Living outdoors and grazing naturally in our oak meadows keeps our birds happy and healthy so they never need to be treated with hormones or antibiotics. You may notice a distinct color difference in the fat when compared to what you’ll find in the grocery store. This notable characteristic can only be achieved from slow growth and free-range muscle development from foraging on pasture with access to bugs and insects.
Our Mission
Sustainable, Ethically Raised Meat
We believe that in order to raise clean, nutrient-dense protein, our animals need to be raised the RIGHT way - outdoors with sunlight, fresh air, and open oak meadow pasture.
We make it easy to bring good health to your table.
Unbeatable Value
Get a range of high-quality cuts at an amazing value. We let our pigs and chickens forage and develop naturally on a Southern Oregon hillside, so they enjoy a slower growth cycle. Our meats offer a decadent yet medicinal source of the highest quality animal fat, producing unparalleled flavor and a nutrient-rich, clean source of vitamins and minerals. You can actually taste the difference!
Peace Of Mind
We feel good about raising healthy and delicious meat, so you can feel good about what you’re feeding your family. You may notice a distinct color difference in the fat of our meats when compared to what you’ll find in the grocery store. This notable characteristic can only be achieved from slow growth and free-range muscle development from foraging on pasture with access to bugs and insects. The fat on meats acts as a happiness meter of the animal and ours is off the charts!
High-Quality Meats
Most farms raise their animals on cheap corn and soy fillers which makes the meat bland and tough and can also be harmful to your health. Our animals are free-range and enjoy seasonal local crops in addition to a year-round diet of alfalfa, peas, flaxseed, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, chia seed, sesame seed, wheat, oats, and quinoa.
We care about your health. We care about the earth. We care about honoring animals.

It all started when…
Our story is pretty simple, actually. After experiencing a life-changing meal at Thomas Keller’s world-famous French Laundry, a dream was planted: to develop a closer relationship to food and the land on which it is grown…
