Formerly,Bar None Ranch, of Berlin, NY, we are now Climbing Tree Farm, of New Lebanon. We raise PASTURED POULTRY, LAMB, GRASS-FED BEEF, and WOODLAND/PASTURE-RAISED, MILK-FED PORK. We keep our animals true to their instincts- letting our pigs dig, our chickens range, our sheep graze. We feed rotationally graze on pasture and silvo-pasture (in the woods). We work with a local dairy to feed our pigs Jersey milk. We are conscientious stewards of the land, and our animals.

Piglets

Eleven nine week old piglets in a dog crate...this, my friends,
is exactly like a clown car routine at the circus. We prefer our piglets to travel in a small,
confined space like a dog crate. It seems to stress them out less when they are all snuggled up together,
and not sloshing around loose in the back of the truck. They often organize themselves in rows, just like
 hot dogs in a package.

We had a gap in our pig schedule and picked
 up these beautiful piglets from Crosby Farm in Berne, NY.
 It is a beautiful, well-managed farm that sits way up on a hill overlooking the world.
 They come from a couple of different litters, there is some red wattle in the mix
 (see the little dangly things on the pig in the front right?), some Berkshire, some Old Spot.
