Saltz & Peppa Pork
Heritage pigs, forest pasture, and thoughtfully raised food from a family-run homestead called The Refuge.
Raised in the woods. Shared at the table.
At The Refuge, heritage Mangalitsa and Duroc-cross pigs are raised within a forest farm bounded by White Oak Creek. The Dickinsons focus on natural foraging and thoughtful land management.
