Grass-fed meats
If you are trying to decide on what pastured meat to try first at Wacholz Farm, I recommend our pastured pork. Because of the breeds and environment that our pigs live, our pork tastes are very different of the stores /groceries.
​
Berkshire, Red Wattle, Hereford and Duroc heritage hogs are what we raise at Wacholz Farm. These breeds are known for their meat quality and flavor. Our pigs are born and raised on soil and are fed non-gmo grains in addition to pasture.
