Come celebrate Open Farm Days with us and our 4th annual Hungarian Mangalitsa Festival, PigStock!

At Eh Farms, we believe in fostering a deeper connection between consumers and their food.

Come on out to the farm and experience firsthand our sustainable farming practices, learn the history about the unique and rare breed of pig we raise, the Red Mangalitsa, hailed as the ‘Kobe Beef of pork’. We are proud to be the first farm to import the Red Wooly Mangalitsa pig into Canada.

As a bonus, we also raise turkeys, meat rabbits and, rare for Western Canada, the Cayuga duck. These additions to our farm showcase our dedication to providing diverse and high-quality meat options.
Our guided wagon ride tour of the farm provides a hands on and educational experience for all ages, anyone curious about where their food comes from.
