We proudly offer piglets for your farm whether it's top quality breeding stock, barrow pets or pasture pork grow outs.  We do not and will not sell finished pork products.   We happy to provide your farm with  registered breeding quality foundation pigs.

Our family suffers with intense food allergies which makes finding meat that isn't cross contaminated with allergens very hard.  Also, supermarket meat is not ideal for many reasons:  poor quality, limited selection, dyes / preservatives / other harmful ingredients,  factory abuse and to make matters worse, it's at a premium price.  Due to intense factories needing fast growth rates to meet supply and demand, most breeds are hybrids and grow fast but the trade off is poor tasting meat.

​

Due to so many factors, it became necessary for our family to provide ourselves with meat in a clean, controlled environment without cross contamination and added ingredients. Not only do we choose what our pigs eat but they are happy and very much loved. Our foundation herd provide  us with registered future breeder offspring to help other farms, and others to raise as pasture pork. 

KuneKune means short and round in Maori. We absolutely adore these short and round pigs.  Here's what we love about them and why we chose them for our family:

• They have cute faces with upturned snoots; This means they aren't tough on land since they tend to not root up pastures like other breeds.

• They do great on small farms.

• They are friendly, well mannered and easy to handle. No aggressive boars to worry about.

• They have short legs and a thick body.  Body = Meat.

• They are a heritage breed and we love participating in the preservation of heritage breeds. While some hogs are more susceptible to disease and parasites than others, heritage pigs are naturally resistant to a variety of diseases and parasites. As an added bonus, we are helping to conserve a rare breed. 

• They are slow growing for a meat that is a true delicacy.

• KuneKunes are healthier for you. The meat is  higher in beta carotene, vitamins D and E, and good fatty acids that lower cholesterol and help keep a human body healthy. 

• The bacon is hard to beat and the lard is plentiful.
