Did you know that October is National Pork Month? And, did you know that many of the member-owners of the Wisconsin Grass-fed Beef Cooperative also raise pastured pork on their Wisconsin family farms, just like this one pictured above, in Coon Valley, WI? Well… now you do!
Like our beef, Wisconsin Meadows pasture-raised pork comes from family farms – humanely treated pastured hogs born and raised in Wisconsin. Our livestock is naturally and humanely raised without antibiotics or synthetic growth hormones. Our hogs are not confined to crates and have outdoor access their entire lives. The piglets are left with their mothers to learn natural rooting and foraging behavior. Low-stress handling and rotational grazing keep both the hogs and the pastures healthy. Speaking of which, those well-managed pastures protect soil and water resources, as well as provide wildlife habitat.
Our producers are proud of the livestock they raise that go into Wisconsin Meadows products. But not only are they focused on humanely managing animals, they are also focused on the environment and using regenerative practices to improve soil and water quality. It’s just one more step in ensuring our product purity and a high-quality eating experience.
