Woodland Raised Pork



Pigs_in_the_woods
Pigs raised at Root Force are regularly rotated through a mixture of pastured and forested land. Our woodland-raised pigs depend on a natural diet composed largely of foraged plants, acorns, and roots.  
TreeProducts
The use of tree products, such as acorns and honeylocust pods, reduces our need for grain.
By promoting a diverse diet and minimizing our use of grain feed, we produce a more flavorful and healthy product.  Our methods contrast conventional pork production, which relies on high-energy, grain-based diets proven to be unhealthy for both the animal and the consumer.

You will taste the difference!





Pastured Poultry



Root Force chickens are pasture-raised, regularly rotated, and supplemented with locally-produced, non-GMO feeds.

Our products include whole chicken, as well as select cuts. All chickens are prepared on- farm in an open-air processing facility.  We welcome any visitors who would like to observe or tour the farm.

Non-Timber Forest Products



Walk_in_Woods_2010
Root Force not only strives to protect our forested land, but considers the management of forest habitats a valuable component of farm production. We cultivate several products that are harvested from the forest understory.


A variety of edible mushrooms, including shitake, chicken-of-the-woods, and reishi are offered on a seasonal basis.
