We use only natural, old-fashioned methods to ensure that the pork will be unsurpassed in taste, tenderness and nutrition.

The short answer is that it is not. It’s just that industrial factory raised pork at the store is priced at exactly what it is worth! If you buy food based on it's quality, nutritional value and taste – our pork is cheap. However, it goes much deeper than that. One of the reasons conventional food is so cheap is that it is mass produced without any concern as to the quality of the food or the welfare of the animal. The industrial goals is to produce cheap food – not quality food (can't have both)! Our focus is on quality. Thus, we spend a lot of time working toward this goal. Quality doesn't come cheap.
