Never thought of raising pigs this way until I read about it in one of Joel Salatin's books. And now I see it in practice. Amazing. We had pigs growing up, but we kept them in a pen and they stunk to high heaven. I never thought I'd want to raise a pig, but Joel and your family have changed my mind. Letting pigs be pigs is the right way to do it; right for them and right for us.

Agreed. Thanks for sharing. Pigs don't really have to stink, its all about how and where you raise them. I hope you have success with your pigs.
