….though it’s still on the hoof. We do expect harvest in time for the holidays.  The larger pigs are approaching 250 pounds or a little more.  Our target weight is 300. This group includes Gloucester Old Spot though most are crossed with Tamworth, our favorite for bacon.  Next year we may experiment with raising a greater number but we’ll confine ourselves to offering only halves and wholes. We’ll be making some changes in the way we market our beef as well. Photo by our son-in-law, Curt Humphreys.
