Quality Pork & Specialized Flour Production

Terza Farms is locally owned and operated by the Duke family since 1975. Larry and Lucy Duke started out as a Holstein dairy farm.  In 1998, their son Matt Duke and his wife Carol changed the farm over to swine.  In 2002, an addition was built onto the barns and we began raising piglets from 450 sows.

We strive for excellence:

  • Animal care and healthy production
  • Our sow herd is considered to be of "high health status", which means it is free of the most common swine diseases.  
  • Sows are housed in open pens, in a bright, naturally ventilated barn. This system allows them to socialize, and maintain natural behaviour

As well, these sows are provided with free access to straw.
 In 2004, our farm became CQA certified, which is a nationally recognized quality assurance program.  In order to maintain our certification, our farm must comply with a long list of rules and regulations and must be inspected regularly by a certified veterinarian.  This certification is recognition of excellence within the swine industry.
