Parker Farms is a small farm nestled between Hillsborough and Roxboro in the Hurdle Mills area of Northern Orange County.
We are committed to raising our four children, our crops and our animals in a wonderful, nurturing farming environment similar to how we were raised.
Our children help feed and water the animals and with harvesting crops. They love to raise their own pigs, cows and chickens for 4-H and just for fun. Together, we strive to be good stewards of the land that God has provided for us.
Our Farmer’s Hybrid hogs are raised on open pasture along with a few cows, with small grains for cover crops and corn for feed. We rotate our pigs periodically to graze on forages of fescue, barley, millet, clover and other mixed grasses. Along with pasture to graze, the pigs are fed a corn feed mix.
You can buy our delicious pork at Whole Foods Market (Raleigh), Weaver Street Market (Carrboro) and the Q Shack.
We adhere to the Animal Welfare Institute standards, practice humane husbandry skills and do not use antibiotics or growth hormones in their feeds.
