The one-day tour on June 2 will provide a look at modern swine production and food marketing, as well as agricultural research and product development. Both tours include meals on tour days, along with free, three-day admission to World Pork Expo, the world’s largest pork-specific trade show.

In there operation they have given up farming for pasture because their farm ground isn't very good. At first they gave up their farm ground and started using it as hay ground but is now all pasture. To maintain the grasses and natural plants they move cattle at the very least every two days and sometimes as often as every six hours.
