Eden's Cove has closed.
In 2019 JoAnn and Vivian decided to hang up the tractor keys and close the farm. It was a great adventure, but one that had outlived it's time.
Farming Practices
Sustainability in farming is the art of creating an ecological balance so the entire system works in unison. We have ducks and chickens and cats for pest maintenance. We let death and decay replenish the land and encourage it along by turning the soil. We let our sows and other animals decide when to have more babies and how to raise them.
Flavor and nutrition in food goes hand in hand. Our pork is both nutrient dense and delicious because we take great pains to create a balanced diet for our hogs. Our hogs also have plenty of space to range freely. They choose between shade trees and sunning in mud baths. We do not rush the growth of our hogs. We let them come to market weight naturally. This allows the herd to remain healthy and allows their meat to marble properly.
The word “heritage” refers to livestock that pre-dates industrial agriculture. This matters because modern livestock is bred for speed of growth and the convenience of raising under assembly line conditions. Large Black Hogs did not make the cut because they would never tolerate being raised in pens or having their infants taken away. However these beautiful beasts are known for their sweet flavor, well marbled meat, red eye on their chops, and pure white fat. This is a superior animal and a superior meat.Eden's Cove Farm, 157 Bahia Lane, Cedar Creek, Texas 78612

Eden's Cove Farm is the only provider of Farmstead bacon and sausage in central Texas. We start by raising the finest quality hogs on large pastures. We provide our animals with plenty of space to roam, mud to wallow in, and nutritious foods to eat. We raise them in a happy healthy environment. But what we don't provide is just as important. We do not give them routine medications or vaccines.
From the pasture they go to an inspected facility to be evaluated for wholesomeness, then the whole carcass comes back to Eden's Cove Kitchen where the magic really beings. We take the best pork in central Texas (we know it's the best because we raised it) and add fresh herbs and spices to it to create outstanding bacon and amazing sausages.
While most of the pork from our hogs is turned into sausage or bacon, we always have pork chops, and a few other cuts available. We can also provide your family with a whole or half hog for your freezer. An excellent way to save money on groceries while knowing you are getting the best quality meat available.
