There’s something special about food that comes from a place where people still care about how it was raised and how healthy it is. 

Blackburn Bottom Pastures began with friends who shared a simple idea: we wanted better food for our families. We were tired of wondering how commercially raised meat was produced and what went into the food we were bringing home to our tables. 

So, we decided to raise it ourselves. 

We believe there’s a place for both the wisdom of traditional farming and the advantages of modern technology. We combine old-fashioned pasture raising and hands-on animal husbandry with modern tools and knowledge to carefully monitor the health, growth, nutrition, and genetics of our animals. We select breeds for exceptional genetics and flavor, while giving each animal the proper diet and environment to thrive. 

Our pigs and chickens are pasture raised, given room to live naturally, and fed all-natural, non-GMO, soy-free feed. We do not use hormones, routine antibiotics, or forever chemicals in raising our animals or even in maintaining the farm. We believe that what goes into an animal matters—and ultimately becomes part of what goes onto your family’s table. 

We’re building our farm around something that seems simple but has become increasingly rare: good animals, good land, good food, and good people. 

We believe food should be something you can feel proud to serve your family. You should know where it came from, how it was raised, what it was fed, and who put the care into producing it. 

That’s what we’re trying to do here at Blackburn Bottom Pastures—combine the best of the old ways with the best of today’s knowledge and science. We raise food with a little more care and a lot more heart. 

From our family, our farm, and our pastures—to your family and your table.
