Protocols

The feed we use to supplement our pigs and chickens is fresh, local, and free of any and all GMO's. Confirmed with 3rd party testing. We went down many of rabbit holes to settle on what we felt comfortable with. This is the food we feed our children so we take it very seriously.

All Rucker Farm meats are GMO-free

Our animals are treated like equals. We manage our animals so that they can express their natural instincts. We take pride in the fact that our animals are treated with the utmost care and attention. From fresh pastures to low-stress handling and humane harvesting, we’re committed to ethical farming practices.

Rather than open or continuous grazing where animals are allowed to overgraze and bathe in mucky water holes, our animals are strategically moved across open pastures or forested areas, where they graze on nutrient-rich grasses, allowing us to work in harmony with mother nature. This grazing process helps to build the animals health and resilience while enhancing the carbon sequestering of the soil – helping to combat environmental degradation.

At Rucker Farm, we provide meat that is free from synthetic nitrites and nitrates.

Our all-natural production process ensures that every cut is free from harmful additives and preservatives, allowing you to enjoy meat that is as wholesome as it is delicious.

All Rucker Farm Items are Gluten Free. Products such as breakfast sausage, pork chops, chicken breast, and more can be enjoyed even on strict diets.

Fillers are additives like soy, carrageenan, wheat, olestra, and more that help bulk up the weight of food. They lower the price (and the quality) of many meats. Rest easy when you shop with Rucker Farm — none of our products contain fillers.

Enjoy food you can count on. We never feed animal by-products to any of our animals.

We are dedicated to providing meat that is raised ethically without any harmful additives. That includes hormones, steroids and growth additives.

The FDA prohibits the use of hormones or antibiotics in pork or poultry production, but they do not monitor the use of synthetic growth enhancers.

At Rucker Farm, we proudly offer 100% grass-fed and grass-finished beef raised on regenerative pastures. Our cattle graze freely on a natural diet of grass and forage, ensuring they live as nature intended.

We never supplement our cattle’s diet with grain, which results in meat that is more nutritious, full of rich, natural flavor, and higher in omega-3 fatty acids.

Our commitment to regenerative farming practices goes beyond raising exceptional meat—it’s about fostering a thriving ecosystem, caring for the land, and ensuring the well-being of our animals.

At Rucker Farm, we are dedicated to providing meat that is both delicious and ethically raised. Our animals are pasture-raised, enjoying continuous access to regenerative pastures where they thrive naturally.

Our chickens and pigs roam freely, expressing their natural behaviors. Their diet is supplemented with non-GMO grain, the most appropriate choice for non-ruminant animals, ensuring their health and well-being.

With a commitment to regenerative farming practices, we raise our animals in harmony with the environment, fostering a system that supports the land, animals, and future generations.

At Rucker Farm, we do not administer mRNA vaccines and have no plans to adopt their use in the future. Many consumers may not realize that even 100% Certified Organic standards permit vaccine use similar to conventional practices.

We believe in fostering resilience in our livestock through regenerative farming practices. By focusing on soil health, holistic breeding, and robust management, we aim to minimize the need for vaccines.

Currently, we allow traditional vaccines only in rare cases where there is a high risk of life-threatening infections, such as tetanus in cattle. This judicious approach ensures the health and well-being of our animals while staying true to our commitment to regenerative farming.

At Rucker Farm, our mission is to build natural resistance to disease and sickness through practices that benefit the land, animals, and community for generations to come. We continually pursue preventive and holistic alternatives to conventional vaccine practices as part of this effort.
