Traditional Farming Methods & Old Fashioned Values

May 8, 2012

GOT KUNES?

We have five litters on the ground (and another due at any minute) from which to choose outstanding piglets of color, substance, and exceptional type.  If you are in the market for a gorgeous boar or gilt produced by the longest running breeding program in America, please contact us for a list of available piglets.  Our reputation for producing piglets that are true to type and often epitomize the Standard for Perfection has been earned through dedication to the breed and careful selection.  ORF breeds (and sells) only the very best of our operation mainly utilizing the produce and get of our imported stock directly from New Zealand and the UK.


Olde Reminisce Farms believes in using traditional farming methods while taking advantage of up to date research and current trends that lead to a healthy land, a healthy animal, a healthy family, and a healthy community.  Olde Reminisce raises and promotes rare breed livestock.  We are members of the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy and support the mission of the ALBC and others like them.

 

Currently, we are working with several other farmers to increase productivity and allow us to expedite our products to the local community.  One such farm with which we have partnered is Rainbow Ranch Farms CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) in Pinon Hills, California.  Olde Reminisce supplies them with weaners pigs to provide Kunekune Free Range Pork to their members and local customers.


 

 

 

 

The Grazing Pig

Kunekune Pigs are the only breed of swine known to fatten on grass with so very little needed in the way of supplementation.  Their wide head, dished face, and short, upturned snout speaks to their tendency to graze rather than root.

Philosophy

"means that farmers must tend farms that they know and love, farms small enough to know and love, using tools and methods that they know and love, in the company of neighbors that they know and love."  ~Wendell Berry
