High Flying Pigs | Flying Pigs Farm | Mike Yezzi and Jen Small

Flyingpigs-People:For Web

It would be difficult to find two more unlikely pig farmers than these two.
But if the opinions of their fans from the New York City Greenmarket and
many well known city chefs count for anything, they are doing just fine.
Flying Pigs Farm is generally acknowledged as one of the best pork producers
around. Their secret? Rare heritage breed pigs raised in a humane way. Open
pasture and woods, clean food, spring water and low stress produces meat
far superior to most. Not only are they producing a great product, they are
preserving these rare breeds of our porcine friends.

This was shot on and around their farm in the Battenkill River Valley and NYC.
