Herta was founded by Shane & Heidi Adams who had a vision to provide high end heritage pork to Chefs direct from the farm. It became clear within the first year of business that in order to provide the highest quality, Herta had to control all aspects of the process.

In 2019 Herta became a Vertically integrated operations handling everything from birth to butchery on-site. To control the quality, they hand deliver their product to the Chef.

Heidi engaged herself in learning the art of slaughter and butchering becoming the only woman owned fully vertical hog farm who delivers direct to Chef’s in the United States. Over the past 7 years, Heidi has perfected her skills in butchering providing an extremely rare direct to Chef operation, with extensive care on animal welfare and raising them all natural no antibiotics or hormones. All of the heritage Berkshire and Hereford hogs are raised in an open outdoor secure pen. This radically transforms the texture, flavor, and composition of the meat. Heritage hogs are biologically built to thrive outdoors, and their active lifestyle directly creates a superior, premium culinary product.

Her vision along with her Husband and Son has created a one-of-a-kind operation unmatched in the industry. We welcome you, as artist of the plate, to allow Herta to provide you a canvas that will set you apart from all others.
