Naturally Smoked Berkshire Ham and Bacon

It’s so nice to have a great meal that’s been grown on the Farm! 

Every year I do my best to raise happy pigs, grow delicious, nutritious potatoes, and put quality food in the Larder; so to speak. 

It makes me wonder, each new year, if the exceptional quality will be there!?

Whether it’s like the Supper meal of Naturally Smoke Cured, Woodland Pastured Berkshire Pork, & Kennebec Potatoes or like the Fresh Free Range Eggs pictured below with the Ham and Bacon. Pan fried in our Cast Iron Frying Pan. Of Course! 

 Berkshire Pork Ham and Bacon With Fresh Free Range Eggs

Quality Pork comes from providing a quality life for our Pigs. We use rotational pastures, and regenerative farming techniques that help provide them with fresh pasture and supplement with feed to help provide a balanced diet. Most days our pigs can be seen rooting and chewing in their Woodland Pastures while their little tails spin around with pleasure and excitement.

Briden Farm Pig Introductions

Changes have been happening in our Herd of Berkshire Pigs. Moe and Curly have moved on to Heavenly Pastures and we’ve introduced Lara to three younger pigs, Jack, Elvis, and Babe. Hoping that Babe and Lara become our Piggy Mommas. Lara by Spring and Babe later on. 

This video shows the four getting along quite well after just a couple of days… 

We originally got the three little ones in hopes of breeding them, one of them, Jack or Elvis, to Lara. However, I wasn’t quite calculating things right! As you can see, there’s still a significant size difference between them and Lara. 

So, we’re weighing our options as to what’s best to do about breeding Lara and to whom? We’re working on a couple of different options at the moment. 

As for Babe, it’ll be spring before she’s ready to be bred. There’s never a dull moment around the farm. Especially when you have Pigs and Goats! Fun! Fun! 

Come embrace, the fun, at Briden Farm! Where the Tea is always on, and the Coffee is not far behind! Call Brian today to Book Your Farm Visit. 902-907-0770 

PS: Ask us about buying Pork, Piglets, or Hogs!

First Snowfall at The Barn

We had our first snowfall of the season last night. While it probably means four months of hardships, harsh winds, and bitter cold, it also brings with it it own beauty. That beauty, the beauty of this magical season is captured in this post and video. As is the incredible work our Goats and Pigs have been doing over the past 80 days! It really captures well, the before and after!
