About this episode

Kirstin Bordner discusses her experience raising registered IPP pigs on her farm in central Pennsylvania.

In this episode, I talk with Kirstin Bordner of Mouse Creek Farm in central Pennsylvania. Kirstin has been working her 44 acres for over 40 year but started raising pigs on pasture just 8 years ago. Her foray into pasture pigs now has her running a 10 sow registered IPP breeding operation. For more information about her farm, check her out on facebook here.
