Althea raises authentic and certified Berkshire pork on her picturesque farm in Bridport Vermont. On one side you can view the Adirondacks and on the other you see the Green Mountains. All of her pigs lead a quiet happy life and are pasture raised with each other grazing grass and legume pasture in the Champlain Valley. Her Berkshire and Heritage breed Tamworth pigs produce the best pork you will ever taste! Their grass/hay diet is supplemented with whey from local cheese makers, all natural grains, our own produce, apples, pumpkins and nuts in season.
