Three years of building something worth believing in. Every season a lesson. Every cut a commitment.
We started with raw land and a simple conviction — that the best food is raised slowly, with intention. This is how we got here, season by season.
Secured our property in the Okanagan highlands. Fencing went up, shelters were built, and the first pasture beds were turned. The land that would become our farm took its first breath.
Welcomed our founding herd of heritage-breed pigs. Open pasture from day one, natural feed, no shortcuts. They set the standard for everything that has followed.
Established full seasonal pasture rotations and refined feed protocols across every acre. Every decision made with animal welfare before anything else.
Our first batch of cuts — processed and frozen. Shared with neighbours, friends, and family. The feedback was unanimous: this is different.
Roots & Stones became official. A name that holds what we believe: food that comes from the earth and endures. The brand was built to match the farm — unhurried and honest.
Launched online ordering with farm pickup in Coldstream BC. Farm direct. No middlemen. No compromises. Just the best pork we know how to raise.
Expanding herd capacity while holding every standard in place. The farm is alive, the cuts are moving, the mission continues — one pickup at a time.
