OUR PRACTICES
OUR COMMITMENT
At Blonde Farms of Montana, our practices reflect our deep-rooted commitment to transparency, sustainability, and the well-being of our animals. Here on the sweeping plains of Montana, we embrace a traditional approach to hog farming, where the sun-drenched outdoors becomes an integral part of our pigs' lives.
We believe in giving our hogs the freedom to roam and thrive in their natural environment. That's why we raise them outside in the sunshine, where they can bask in the warmth of Montana's golden rays and express their natural behaviors to the fullest. Our pigs graze on lush pastures, forage for roots, and enjoy the fresh air and open spaces that define our landscape.
From farrow to finish, we oversee every step of the process with meticulous care and attention to detail. Our farm-to-table approach ensures that our pork products are not just of the highest quality but also reflect our values of integrity and accountability. By controlling every aspect of production, we can guarantee that our customers receive pork products that are ethically raised, sustainably sourced, and bursting with flavor.
At Blonde Farms of Montana, we're more than just farmers; we're stewards of the land and champions of ethical farming practices. Join us in our commitment to raising hogs the right way, where sunshine, sustainability, and superior quality come together to create an experience that's as satisfying for the soul as it is for the palate.
WHAT WE DO
At Blonde Farms of Montana, our farming practices are guided by a deep commitment to excellence, compassion, and environmental stewardship. Here's a glimpse into what we do:
Farrowing Inside with Exceptional Standards: Our farrowing facility is designed to surpass California Proposition 12 standards, ensuring the utmost comfort and well-being of our sows and piglets. Every aspect, from temperature control to bedding materials, is meticulously maintained to provide a nurturing environment for newborns and their mothers.
Rotational Grazing for Sustainable Agriculture: We practice rotational grazing for our pigs, allowing them to forage on fresh pasture while promoting soil health and minimizing environmental impact. This method not only provides varied diets for our hogs but also ensures the land remains fertile and productive for generations to come.
Embracing Natural Instincts and Sunshine: Our hogs are given ample opportunity to express their natural behaviors and bask in the sunshine. Outdoor access and spacious environments allow them to root, roam, and socialize, promoting physical and mental well-being.
Composting Waste for Environmental Sustainability: We prioritize waste management through composting, turning organic matter into nutrient-rich soil amendments. By harnessing the power of composting, we reduce waste sent to landfills and enrich the soil for future crops and pastures.
Energy-Saving Measures to Reduce Carbon Footprint: We're committed to minimizing our carbon footprint by implementing energy-saving measures throughout our operations. This includes updating facilities with insulation to improve energy efficiency, reducing reliance on non-renewable resources, and embracing sustainable practices wherever possible.
At Blonde Farms of Montana, we strive to set the standard for responsible farming practices, ensuring the health and welfare of our animals while safeguarding the environment for future generations. Join us in our journey toward a more sustainable and compassionate future.
