Meet Our Partner Producers

Take time to read the stories from some of our partner producers.

All are independent family farms who raise poultry and livestock for us according to our All Natural protocol. Because we know each of these farmers personally, how they treat their livestock and the history of each animal according to our protocol, we have a traceback system that assures you of the quality of your meat.

By buying from local producers like us, you can have confidence in the quality in the meat and in our sustainable agricultural practices.

Meet our Lamb Producers

Pine View Farms works with Len Tieszen from Hepburn, SK, who raises Katahdin sheep for local markets.

The popularity and demand for Katahdin meat has increased because the mild, lean meat has an excellent flavour that lacks the tallow taste. Katahdin producers attribute the mild flavour to a lack of wool. Less wool means less lanolin which typically contributes to the "mutton" taste sometimes associated with lamb.

Meet Our Pork Producers

Ben and Susan Loewen are hog farmers near Hague, Saskatchewan. Ben and Susan purchased their farm in 1994 from Ben's uncle Abe and Aunt Sara. This farm has been in the family for 100 years. In addition to pigs, the farm includes 4 quarters of land and 70 beef cows.

Ben and Susan started raising pigs four years ago simply because the grain farm was not doing so well and the farm yard had an unused barn available. Since both Ben and Susan were raised on the farm and had chored pigs in the past so they decided that rather than raising them with all the growth hormones and medications, they would do it like they did years ago.

Ben also works for Quiring Farms during spring and fall and part-time in winter. Susan is a stay-at-home mom who manages much of the farm while Ben is at work. Ben and Susan have three sons, Tyler, Jared and Kevin who are starting to take more of an interest in the farm as they grow up.
