Core Sourcing Principles - Only buys meat from farms that raise 100% heritage breed animals specifically for Heritage Foods. - Commits to purchasing the whole herd and whole flock from each partner farm. - All animals are raised on pasture and the meat sold is antibiotic free. - Emphasizes nose-to-tail usage, so more parts of each animal are enjoyed and not wasted. Partner Farms and Examples Heritage Foods partners with farms across the United States, including but not limited to: - Newman Farm Berkshire Pork (Missouri) – multi-generation farm raising purebred Berkshire pigs on pasture; their line traces back to historic English Berkshire genetics. - Lazy Red Wattle Ranch (Missouri and surrounding states) – a network of farms stewarding the rare Red Wattle pig, raised on pasture and antibiotic free. - Metzger Farm (Kansas) – raises purebred Berkshire and Tamworth pigs, along with other livestock, using diversified, low-chemical farming practices. - Good Farm (Kansas) – raises Old Spot, Duroc, and Tamworth pigs, focusing on meat quality, strong genetics, and pasture-based systems. - Tamarack Sheep Farm (Vermont) – raises rare breeds of lamb, including Tunis and Dorset Horn, on pasture with heritage-focused breeding. Heritage Breeds and Conservation - Many of the breeds supported by Heritage Foods, such as Red Wattle and Gloucestershire Old Spot, have been considered threatened or rare. - Supporting these breeds helps preserve valuable genetics that contribute to flavor, resilience, and adaptability. - Heritage Foods collaborates with farmers who, in turn, often work with organizations and conservation efforts focused on rare livestock breeds. Quality and Eating Experience - Heritage breed meats are known for higher marbling, which leads to more tender, juicy, and flavorful meat. - Beef (including Wagyu), pork, lamb, and poultry from these farms are selected for both taste and ethical production methods. Customers buying from Heritage Foods are directly supporting farms that: - Raise animals humanely on pasture. - Avoid routine antibiotics. - Maintain and improve important heritage livestock lines.
