Our pork is sourced from our neighbor, George Lorette, who owns Serendipity Farm in Bradford, Maine. There are quite a few differences between George's pigs and conventional pigs - including the quality of the living conditions. Supermarket pork is raised in confined feeding operations, where pigs have no access to outdoors for their entire lives. At Serendipity, the pigs have access to outdoors 365 days a year. Serendipity pigs do not receive antibiotics or growth hormones, which are commonly used with conventional pigs.
