We are not certified organic, but we use organic practices. We grow our vegetables without synthetic herbicides, pesticides, or fertilizers. We employ Permaculture practices in many aspects of the farm, using companion planting techniques to attract or repel certain insects. We use compost, cover crops, and natural amendments to improve the soil in our vegetable gardens. Our pigs are rotationally grazed on pasture and are supplemented with treats from the garden. KuneKune pigs were bred to thrive on pasture alone, so they don’t require pig feed. However, in the winter when the grass isn’t enough, they are supplemented with local Non-GMO pig feed. We are not certified humane, but we raise our animals in a humane way. We respect our animals and their natural tendencies, and we use those tendencies to our advantage.
