Buy Pasture Raised Pork from pigs free to forage, run and play

Join our CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) Pork Share & collect your pasture-raised pork directly from our farm on SUNDAY 13th APRIL 2025 (or on another day negotiated with us).

EACH PASTURE-RAISED PORK SHARE RECEIVES

  • Bacon
  • Pork Hock
  • Ham
  • pork sausages
  • mince
  • pork belly
  • bone in shoulder
  • cutlets

We love the EAT BETTER MEAT LESS approach to life.

The $50 is a Deposit and does not represent final payment 🙂 

This deposit will be subtracted from the final payment once the pork share is received by you, the final payment will be something like $330 minus the $50 deposit, hence somewhere around $280 for your pork share (this is an example ONLY as it all depends on how much meat your pack contains, as each pack weighs a little differently 🙂

What is a CSA

A CSA is an important and amazing move away from misery and the organisations that condone it, Supermarkets. Having visited one of the many farms that raise pigs in sheds for supermarkets, I am really chuffed that we are doing something so extremely positive from an animal care point of view and also from a deliciousness point of view.

Behind the Scenes – Information about our pasture-raised pork

We are caring for pigs… raised outdoors on grass, soil, sun and rain on Dja Dja Wurrung Country.

Only pigs raised on pasture have a great life and only a tiny % of farmers in Australia raise pigs on pasture. We are so excited to join them!

Food is an incredible resource and one that takes an enormous amount of work to produce.

The gestation period for a pregnant sow is about 115 days. That is 115 days that she is fed, provided with fresh water and moved to fresh pasture.

Then the piglets are born and raised (fed, watered and moved every week to fresh pasture) for about 8 months (just over 200 days), I book the abattoir to ensure my pigs can be received. I then book the refrigerated transport contact to ensure the carcasses are collected on time. Butchery takes two weeks to do both fresh cuts and cured meats.

Join us because we can’t wait to build a relationship with you!

Arrivederci cari amici! from mara
