  • Success

    Never given antibiotics or added hormones ever

We believe in better from the ground up—and that means reducing slatted floors and eliminating gestation crates and farrowing crates for hogs. Our hogs are raised on pastures or in hoop barns, with their natural tendencies, safety, and comfort in mind.Many of our pork products are sourced from pigs with heritage-breed lineage. These breeds include (but are not limited to) Duroc, Berkshire, and Chester White. Their natural, “old-world” genetics mean that during their slow maturation process, they develop the fine marbling and great marbling that mother nature intended them to have.Our hogs are fed an all-vegetarian diet and are raised with traditional, sustainable farming methods.

Our seafood is sustainably harvested or responsibly farmed. Our wild-caught seafood spends their entire life in the ocean where they can exhibit their natural behaviors. Our farm-raised seafood is raised with room to swim and is raised in a way that minimizes impact on the environment.  Fishermen uphold strict sustainable harvesting practices to ensure long-term sustainability of wild fish stocks and the overall ocean ecosystem. Practices include careful monitoring and management of wild fish stock numbers, environmental monitoring of the ocean environment, and using certain equipment to minimize environmental impact.   We verify these sustainable production practices by certifying our products through third-party organizations such as Responsibly Fisheries Management, Marine Stewardship Council, Aquaculture Stewardship Council, and Best Aquaculture Practices.  We source a wide range of wild-caught seafood options sustainably harvested from oceans bordering North America.
