Organic crop production is all about tradeoffs. We can’t use herbicides or GMOs leaving tillage as the primary form of weed control

This year we are growing hybrid rye in our corn stubble. It’s not no till but we’ve reduced tillage significantly

The rye will be fed to our organic pigs in 2025/26

It’s a bit foggy, but it’s hard to have a bad day when you’re sitting in the tractor seat

We are a Canadian based speciality pork producer raising pigs for people across North America to enjoy

Had a great time in Germany this week exploring #eurotier but there is no place like home with these monkeys
