"At GrassRoots Meat & Feed Provision Company, the herd of pigs have room to roam and demonstrate natural behaviors, like rooting, grazing and exploring with their snouts. They are regularly moved to fresh ground to avoid the build-up of disease and parasites. Ensuring animals have continual access to pasture or range is a fundamental component of AGW’s farm standards. Research shows this type of pasture-based management results in better animal health, environmental health, and human health—as well as producing delicious pork!

In addition to managing Certified Animal Welfare Approved by AGW and Certified Non-GMO by AGW pigs, Jeremiah and Jessica also raise Certified Animal Welfare Approved by AGW laying hens outdoors on pasture and range. Pasture-based management not only provides the highest welfare conditions for the hens, but also produces healthier eggs containing three times as much vitamin E, seven times more beta-carotene, and twice the omega-3 fatty acids as industrial eggs. And according to customers the eggs are much tastier, too!"
