Nursery pen of weaner pigs Chester White/York sow Grow/Finish hoop barn Welcome to our farm on the web. We are a third generation family farm here in the Kuna area. We raise pigs, along with 500 acres of row crops like sugarbeets, wheat, barley, alfalfa hay and sweet corn seed.
I started my swine operation when I purchased my first bred gilt in 1979 and have expanded to the present 150 sow farrow-to-wean/finish operation. It is managed with the help of my wife Toni and kids Courtney, Kendra, and Skyler. We have taken a different approach of raising pigs then the typical commercial pig factory. Our pigs are raised in a more natural environment like grazing on pasture, having room to move Our sows are a Yorkshire and Chester White cross while the boars are Durocs, sired from boars bred in ISU's meat quality/marbling program. We are also currently working on some Burkshire genetics. We feed our pigs only the highest quality grains grown ourselves. The feed is free of animal by-products or fats, antibiotics, or growth hormones.
We offer butcher hogs, weaner pigs, and show pigs for sale to the general public. We
