Whole Hog Pig Roast with Meadow Rise Farm

If you joined us for our anniversary pig roast earlier this year, you already know what Evan and Meadow Rise Farm are capable of. We're excited to bring them back for Family Farm Day and introduce even more folks to one of Schoharie's great local farms.

Meadow Rise Farm of Knox, NY is one of our spent grain partners, with brewery grain helping feed the pigs raised on their family farm just a few miles away. Using a pasture-based, holistic approach to raising livestock, Evan and his family are producing high-quality pork while creating a direct connection between local farms, local food, and local beer.

While Meadow Rise Farm will not be open to visitors during Family Farm Day, we wanted to find a way to showcase another agricultural business from the Schoharie Valley. Bringing the farm to Wayward felt like the perfect solution.

Evan will once again be roasting a whole hog onsite using a traditional cinder block pit, with the cook beginning the day before and continuing low and slow through the night. The result is pork that highlights the care and attention that goes into raising animals on a small family farm.

Food service details, menu information, and ticket availability will be announced soon.
