Strong Partnerships. Shared Success.

One of the key drivers of our success at Schwartz Farms, Inc. is the strong business relationships we’ve built with independent farm families who care for our pigs under contract. And it’s about more than just natural fertilizer! These mutually beneficial partnerships give our growers the opportunity to generate and stabilize their income, invest in their future, and diversify their farming operations.

For many, these arrangements help preserve the family farm—often making it possible for the next generation to return and continue the legacy. We take great pride in playing a role in strengthening rural communities through these partnerships.

With over 40 years of experience in the pork industry, we understand the importance of trust, consistency, and support. Schwartz Farms, Inc. is a financially strong and dependable partner, even in times of market uncertainty. We are committed to innovation, continuous improvement, and giving back to the communities we serve.
