BERKWOOD FARMS

Flavor. Quality. Farmers Owned. Sustainability.

Our Mission

This is where you can tell people the mission of your farm. Mission statements are important because they identify the purpose of your work and lay out the goals your farm is committed to accomplishing.

The Way Nature Intended

Berkwood Farms is a coalition of independent family farmers and one of the largest American suppliers of 100% pure, antibiotic-free heirloom Berkshire pork. Berkwood Farms’ animals are raised in a healthy, environmentally friendly manner under a strict code of responsible and humane animal husbandry. These production practices ensure that ecologically sustainable farms raise hormone- and antibiotic-free animals. The farmers who raise our Berkshire pigs own Berkwood Farms. The rewards of their hard work are passed directly to our family farmers, who take great pride and accomplishment in caring for the animals the way nature intended.
