Upcoming Courses and Workshops

This course is your deep dive into the world of raising pastured pigs. You’ll go way beyond the basics and learn about things like fertility, breeding, farrowing, how we care for our animals holistically, how to tackle several different feeding methods and so much more. You’ll have access to building plans for shelters and videos showing fencing systems. The list goes on and on. This course is packed full of so much useful information that will make your life as a pastured pig farmer much easier. Learn from our experiences, successes and our failures. No need to re-invent the wheel! Jump right in with the knowledge and confidence you need to make this journey a successful and rewarding one.

Our On-Farm pig workshops will be returning to the schedule soon! Make sure that you’re on our email list and following us on social media to see when this date and time is set.

One of the most frequently asked questions that we get is “what animals should I start with or which ones would work best for my property and goals?” With this being a leading topic of conversation, it only makes sense to create a course to help you to gather the information that you need to make this decision. We’ll discuss the different species that are available, the pros and cons to each, which ones work well together, cost efficiency, hardiness, ease of managing, how terrain and climate play a role and so much more.

I had no idea how much fun this workshop would be until I threw it on the schedule as a “why not?!” response to several requests for it. Before our move we were able to offer it in person. Our new property doesn’t have the indoor space for it just yet. (We’re brainstorming this for a future project.) But for now - I’m working on a digital version to bring it to you wherever you are. We’ll go through the basics of making my every day bread, quick and easy butter, and my favorite quick cheeses. So much fun!
