Ardachy's Symbiotic Relationships


Today we sent our two hogs to slaughter which opened up some opportunities for moving our critters around. We have a two acre pasture that has been used for winter rotation along with our fenced garden and rotating paddock in the yard.

First, we moved our 8 month old hogs into the rotating yard fence. Here, we placed our luscious second cutting hay. The hogs get high quality forage filling their tummies and our lawn (in desperate need of grasses) seeded and mulched. We will continue to rotate this pasture throughout the yard. The pigs burrow and root, enjoying all their pigginess and plant future pastures for themselves. Oh yeah, our yard will not be the traditional yard, how could we waste that space for Kentucky blue grass!? Beware of horse dung and pig pies :)

Pure Windswept Pasture Pork 2012

After three years of working hard to find unrelated breeding stock and building our American Guinea Hog passel we are very excited to share our plans for 2012 with you! 

In March 2012, we will have a limited availability of mouth watering pork sausage, tenderloin and bacon. 
These hogs were raised on pasture and once winter hit, fed organic sprouted barley and free choice 2nd cutting hay, cut from our own hay field. 
They were rotated from our vegetable garden to a 2 acre pasture, free to root and fertilize next years crop!
The majority of this pork with be available through Kinfolk Natural Foods in Alfred, N.Y. 
If you are interested in a few cuts, you can email us at ardachyfarm@gmail.com
