Douglas Zemanek and Frauke Bruns bought this mostly wooded property from 2011 to 2013. Our aim is to farm sustainable. We decided on pigs since they are known for their foraging and rooting skills, We aim to turn the wooded property into wooded pasture, which can be used for horses lama or alpaca. Our animal management is focused on giving the animals a good life, outdoors with shelters for cold and hot periods, fresh water, no antibiotics or hormones' to accelerate the growth. Our goal is to grow the animal slowly in order to increase the quality of the meat . We sell our meat on regional farmers' markets: Piedmont and Northern Virginia, Washington DC,
