These two Yorkshire pigs - weighing in at roughly 300 pounds - let me pet them at Joel Sallatin's Polyface farm in Swoope, Virginia. They were not that friendly with me, but Joel was able to get closer to them. Perhaps they sensed that their end was near as Joel said that these pigs would be slaughtered in the upcoming weeks. The pigs were moved between pens every few days, and were not as smelly as pigs I have seen on other farms. deweymedia partners web video experts are on the case helping tell the story of small farmers like Joel Salatin struggle to gain access for his farm raised products to new markets.
