EdsonWe are a first generation regenerative family farm. We raise mangalica/cross pigs. These curly haired pigs are cold hardy, disease resistant, and known for their quiet friendly disposition. Above all, mangalica pigs are known for high quality meat. They are a Hungarian lard breed that has been around for generations. Alena and her dad visited a guest ranch in Hungary when she was 16 and has been advocating for them ever since. As a pure bred mangalica takes 2 years to finish into world class pork, and the fact that we don’t want to sell meat that no one can afford, we chose to cross our mangalica boar (Red) with some good old healthy barnyard sows. This year we sent our mangalica sow (Sissy) to a pure bred Berkshire boar. So hoping this will make a nice cross and some beautiful pork as both are proven to produce exceptional meat.
