Raising pigs is a balance of simple and complicated. This is the approach that has made the pork from Four Story Hills so great! The simple is feeding adults a vegetarian diet of mostly apples and acorns, and allowing the piglets to feed on mothers milk until 18-20lbs. The complicated is how do you do this on a large sustainable scale, and deliever the product to market that you create? The answer to that one is much harder to answer; this farm has undergone the USDA and FDA certifications to run their own slaughterhouse, allowing them to kill their pigs the same way they lived, with dignity.
