Rooted in Heritage, Ready to Grow: Peculiar Pig Farm Maps Expansion

Peculiar Pig Farm has built a loyal following by staying true to its roots. The fifth-generation, family-owned farm in Dorchester, South Carolina, led by Marvin Ross, is known for heritage hogs, pasture-raised beef and regenerative, pasture-based practices that connect customers more closely to where their food comes from. Through direct-to-consumer sales, restaurant partnerships across the Southeast and its farm-to-table catering division, Peculiar Pig Eats, the farm has grown into a regional favorite.
