Pono Pork - Sustainably Humanely Raised Animals

Growing up in a tiny fishing village in Scotland ( Pittenweem)surrounded by farms and golf courses, it was easy to appreciate the value of farmers and fishermen and their humane treatment of animals bred and sourced locally. Not so easy today for farmers and even harder when we live in such isolation. That’s why we believe Bob McGee and his team at Pono Pork are doing an incredible job of creating a naturally farmed environment for pigs raised in Waianae. The pork is exceptional, and the farm CSA box we had delivered last week was an amazing representation of high quality, locally farmed meat. A Mexican white bean and pork stew was transformed by the beautiful tender pork, and the ground pork made my sons ask for more sausage, more breakfast patties… and even more lamb…. the Waianae pigs are fed a vegetarian diet, the soil on the farm has no pesticides of fertilizers and earthworms do the work of cleansing the earth…. find out more about Bob’s passionate work here: https://www.ponopork.com/ and sign up for one of the weekly CSA boxes here: https://www.ponopork.com/shop.. You’re not only helping to support local farms and local produce… you’re eating sustainably and humanely raised meats that taste truly amazing..
