Pastured Pork Workshop & Workday

Join us on Springhouse Farm as we get our pasture ready for the arrival of our Large Black/Tamworth piglets. We will start the day with an informative, sure to be lively discussion about raising pigs on pasture with Jim Fiedler, then we will get our hands dirty and build a fence and wallow, and introduce the piglets to their new home! Lunch will be provided to all who attend, including bratwurst raised on Fiedler Family Farm.
