Crafting heritage breed pork cuts in Pictou County, Nova Scotia, Canada

“Good food starts with good farming - it’s that simple. Pigs that roam, root, eat well, and get a little affection along the way.

But respect doesn’t stop at how we raise them - it’s also about how we eat.

That means using every part, savouring every cut, and wasting nothing.”
