History of Heritage Breeds: Pigs

In this monthly class, will study and learn about a variety of heritage breed animals, some of which we raise here on the farm. We will explore the region the animals originated and the time period they were first discovered. We will investigate how these breeds differ from others, what they have in common, how they benefit a Farm/ Homestead and if they are currently in need of conservation. 

The schedule will run as follows:

October: Pigs

November: Rabbits

January: Sheep

February: Poultry & Game Fowl
