Pasture Raised Pork
It All Begins Right Here
Our customers need not worry about the wholesomeness of Whittengale pork, because we can tell you the life story of each one of our pigs. Each pig that is harvested was born right here. No need to ask about the practices of the farm that they came from, which is usually not even in Vermont. That’s why we can guarantee that the pork you enjoy was raised with care, is antibiotic-free, hormone-free, and only consumed wholesome feeds.
Living High on the Hog
Being a pig at Whittengale is a rare experience in our day. Our stress-free pigs enjoy Vermont’s fresh air, root into its rich dirt, and wallow in its mud. They bask in the sun and eat the plants that it grows. They move through the pastures, the cedar groves, the maple stands, and the wild apple orchards, sniffing out an incredible diversity of the healthiest foods a pig could hope for. In other words, our pigs live like pigs! As a result, our customers can be assured the pork they eat was responsibly raised in addition to being tender, delicious, and nutrient dense.
The Ultimate Up-cycler
In addition to wild forages, our pigs require high quality, high energy feeds in order to grow to harvest weight in a reasonable time frame, especially in Vermont’s harsh winter climate. With the exception of a small amount of grain in the finishing process, we primarily leverage the availability of food wastes, particularly dairy products like milk, yogurt, and cottage cheese to produce the juicy, tender meat you won’t forget. It’s a win for everyone - the pigs feast on the overabundance of Vermont’s dairy industry, expensive energy-intensive disposal processes are avoided, and our customers are fed rich, nutrient dense meats.
