We source all our pigs locally and exclusively from Greener Days farms in Waldoboro, Maine. They are a small, sustainable off-grid farm focused on raising healthy and happy pigs. They raise Large Black Heritage pigs. We invite you to check out the farm:

We use all-natural hardwood lump charcoal. We also add apple wood to elevate the pork with a subtle smoky flavor. We source our apple wood from Boothby’s Orchards in Livermore, Maine. As well as being a working orchard and farm, Boothby's Orchard is also a wedding venue, please check them out.
