Sweet Water Farm & Ranch Company was founded in 2017 by Michael, Samuel, and Joseph Santry—a father and sons team with a deep love for the natural world. As a family that finds solace and beauty in nature, we are driven by a commitment to care for our environment responsibly. By starting this small, family-operated ranch, we saw an opportunity to play our part in preserving the land and improving the world we all live in.
The farm, located in Columbia, CA, specializes in Pasture-Raised California Berkshire Pork, a premium pork product that stands out for its quality and humane production standards. This specific designation highlights both the breed’s unique qualities and the sustainable, humane practices used in raising these animals. California Berkshire pork combines the renowned attributes of the Berkshire breed—such as its juicy, richly marbled, and tender meat—with the advantages of a West Coast environment, specifically the Central Sierra foothills where Sweet Water Farm & Ranch Co. raises its pigs.
Berkshire Pork embodies the same prized qualities that make Berkshire pork a favorite globally: flavorful, pink-hued meat with a high fat content ideal for diverse cooking methods, from slow roasting to grilling. Raised with access to open pasture and allowed to forage naturally, our California Berkshires develop a robust flavor profile, further enhanced by their nutrient-rich environment. This distinct California adaptation of the Berkshire breed is nurtured without hormones, GMOs, or antibiotics, ensuring a product that meets high standards for both taste and animal welfare.
By choosing Sweet Water’s California Berkshire Pork, you’re not only supporting a family-owned operation but also becoming part of a movement for sustainable, high-welfare agriculture.
