Grateful Acres - Pastured Berkshire Pork serving North Carolina

Welcome to GRATEFUL ACRES! We are a farm located in Hurdle Mills, North Carolina. Our farm is nestled between Hillsborough and Roxboro, North Carolina in southern Person County. We are a diverse farm and have a little bit of everything including Pastured Berkshire Pigs, Cattle, Chickens, Guineas, Turkeys, and Fainting Goats! We also have a lovely orchard and pollinator garden. We proudly serve the surrounding communities including Chapel Hill, Durham, and Raleigh with our farm products including pastured Berkshire Pork!

We believe in sustainable agriculture and knowing where your food comes from. We raise all of our animals as humanely as possible, and we do not use pesticides on our plants or trees. All of our animals roam the pastures and woodlots, bask in the sunshine, and breathe fresh air. We started this farm for ourselves so we knew exactly how our food was raised. We've decided to expand our operation and offer some of our farm products to our larger community and help promote local, sustainable agriculture. The farm products that we are currently offering are our Pastured Berkshire Pork, Grass-fed Beef, Honey, and our Farm Fresh Eggs. We also offer Gift Certificates. Please see our 'Products' page to learn more. Products are offered during our Farm Market Hours or by appointment.
