Bringing Idaho Pasture Pigs to Credo Farms: Our Local Farming Journey in Amite, LA

At Credo Farms, located in the heart of Amite, LA, we are passionate about regenerative farming and providing our local community with high-quality, pasture-raised products. Recently, we set out on an exciting journey to Arkansas to bring back Idaho Pasture Pigs (IPPs) to our farm. These pigs are known for their excellent ability to thrive on pasture and their superior flavor, aligning with our commitment to sustainable farming and non-GMO, pasture-raised pork.

Our trip was not just about finding the right pigs, but also about connecting with the land. Instead of relying on GPS, we went old-school and used printed maps, enjoying the backroads and beautiful landscapes between Arkansas and Amite. It was a perfect reminder of our core values: simplicity, sustainability, and a return to traditional farming practices.

Learning from Fellow Farmers in Southeast Louisiana

During our trip, we had the opportunity to connect with other passionate farmers who share our dedication to sustainable farming in Louisiana. The discussions we had about pasture-raised pigs and their role in regenerative farming gave us fresh ideas for our own farmstand in 2025, where we plan to offer a wider variety of farm-fresh, non-GMO products to our Louisiana community.

Why We Chose Idaho Pasture Pigs for Our Louisiana Farm

Idaho Pasture Pigs are the perfect fit for our farm in Amite, Louisiana. These pigs are known for their ability to graze efficiently and rely less on grain than traditional breeds, making them ideal for pasture-based systems like ours. At Credo Farms, we believe in nurturing the land, animals, and our community, and the addition of IPPs helps promote soil health and long-term sustainability.

Looking Forward to 2025: A Farmstand for Our Louisiana Community

As we look ahead to 2025, we are excited about the potential of expanding our local farmstand to offer even more pasture-raised products, including non-GMO chickens, eggs, and now pasture-raised pork. We are proud to serve Amite, LA, and the surrounding areas, and are grateful for the support of our local community as we continue to grow our regenerative farming practices. Stay tuned for updates on our farmstand and our ongoing commitment to bringing the best local farm products to your table.

Thank you for being part of the Credo Farms family. We look forward to seeing you at our local markets and farmstand soon!
