Pollinator paradise! Lately we’ve been noticing a plethora of pollinators around the farm, including these tiger swallowtail butterflies that were dancing so beautifully around this mama sow and her piglets. ‘Tis the season for winged things! Next time you’re at the farm, come take a look!

It`s a beautiful day to be a farmer! Today we moved the herd into the apple orchard. It`s always hard to predict how the apples will come out, but the cattle certainly enjoy munching on everything the orchard has to offer!

At Hickory Nut Gap, we believe that hogs are at their happiest when they are able to roam freely. When they have the chance to display natural behaviors such as rooting, wallowing, socializing, and grazing, it’s easy to see how happy they are. Because of their varied diet, our pasture-raised pigs produce pork with higher levels of Omega-3 fats and Vitamin E. This results in pork that is not only healthier but also more flavorful.

Every April, as the beauty of spring blankets our Appalachian landscape, we`re reminded that our century-old farm lives and breathes Earth Day values every single day. Through our regenerative approach, we prioritize nurturing healthy land and fostering a harmonious relationship with nature, fortifying the entire farming ecosystem intentionally.
The outcomes speak volumes: our soils flourish, pastures teem with life, animals live contentedly, farmers thrive, and the environment gains resilience and biodiversity. At Hickory Nut Gap, we`re rooted in the belief that true prosperity stems from a foundation of healthy earth. While "big agriculture" prioritizes mass production and cost-cutting, we place the land at the core of our brand and business.
As you celebrate Earth Day, we encourage you to immerse yourself in the great outdoors!
