About Us
Black Dog Farm is a pasture-based pork and poultry farm located in beautiful Livingston, Montana. The farm was established in 2017 and is owned and managed by Tim & Kira, a husband and wife team. We work hard every day to raise meat & eggs from animals shown respect and dignity every day of their lives. Our animals live outdoors, rotating around our farm inside portable fencing and helping us rejuvinate our pastures after many decades of neglect. Our pigs, laying hens, and meat chickens eat a corn, soy, and GMO free feed of barley, peas, wheat, camelina, and species-specific organic mineral. Our feed is grown and milled about 60 miles from our farm by another local farmer. We employ a team of livestock guardian dogs to keep both our animals, and our resident predators, safe. We believe raising animals outdoors on pasture, where they can express their natural behaviors, produces healthier, tastier food and is better for the animals and better for the environment. We are strong advocates of the local food movement, supporting other hyper-local farmers, ranchers, and producers, both in our own home and via our online store. We are proud of the food we produce and are amazed at the creativity and variety of other local food producers here in SW Montana.
