How much money can you make raising pigs? Find out in this pig farming video brought to you by www.thisishomesteady.com.
Every year we raise feeder pigs on our homestead. We raise them to feed our family the most delicious pork we can possibly get, and also to sell to our local community.
Pastured pork is a great enterprise for any small homestead. People like buying quality meat, and pastured pork is SO much better than it’s store bought counterparts. Small farmers and homesteaders can fetch a premium for their pork.
This year we earned $3790 from our pork enterprise… But were we profitable? Find out!
Hello,
I am thinking of starting a homestead in the near future and was wondering how profitable it is. I was thinking of raising bees, chickens, and pigs. Do you have any insight on what and what not to do, how much money I can make, and any reconamdetions? Helo would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
Gabriel

What Grant did you get funding from?
I just got into raising pigs. I have three. We live in Maine and it’s been cold this winter. I have a good supply of produce from the local grocery store but the grain is getting expensive. I don’t know if I’ll make any money this time but so far it’s been pretty easy.
