At Hillside Farm, we’re proud to offer premium Berkshire pork—known for its exceptional flavor, tenderness, and marbling.

Unlike standard grocery store pork, Berkshire pork is richly colored, naturally marbled, and full of flavor. It’s a noticeable difference you can taste from the first bite.

Our Pork Partnership

We’re proud to offer this pork through our partnership with Oak Hill Farm.

Each year, we offer around 120 purebred Berkshire hogs to local families in half and whole shares—providing a consistent supply of high-quality pork raised the right way.

Oak Hill Farm, led by Lane, is known for doing things the right way. As the American Berkshire Association President, he has built a reputation for raising some of the highest-quality Berkshire hogs in the country.

In 2024, his sire Midnight Special earned the #1 ranking for Berkshire pork quality in the American Berkshire Association Progeny Test.

We’re grateful to partner with a farm that shares our commitment to quality, consistency, and raising animals the right way.

How Our Pork Is Raised

These heritage Berkshire hogs are raised on open pasture in North Georgia—not confined to concrete or indoor facilities. They are free to roam, root, and grow naturally on grass, clover, and seasonal forages.

Their diet is supported with locally sourced, non-GMO grains that are ground and mixed on the farm, helping ensure consistent quality and healthy growth.

Animal care is a top priority. In the warmer months, hogs have access to wallows to stay cool and comfortable. In colder weather, they are provided with shelter and bedding to stay protected from the elements.

Focused on Quality from Start to Finish

Oak Hill Farm uses advanced DNA testing to select for traits like tenderness, juiciness, and overall meat quality—while eliminating traits that can lead to inconsistent or lower-quality pork.

The result is pork that is consistently tender, flavorful, and far superior to what you’ll typically find in the grocery store.
