About the Teacher
Why study with them?
Chris Kornacki is the founder and president of Farmacare Inc. and Hog Wild Farming Company.
At Hog Wild Farming Company, we focus on an eco-system approach to farming through our holistic management practices. Whether it be livestock, wildlife, micro-organisms, or humans, we believe environmental and lifestyle factors are the foundation of the resiliency, robustness, and happiness of all the various organisms on our farm. In practice, this means high quality nutrition, exercise, time outdoors, community, sunlight, sanitation, and elimination of exposure to harmful substances (such as pesticides, fungicides, herbicides for example). These practices have a great number of benefits to the health of the animals we raise, the flavour of the meat we produce, the impact on our local environment, the quality of our soil and the well being of our staff and family.
Chris and his wife Brandi have been farming with regenerative practices full time in Creemore, Ontario since 2019. Their farm raises:
organic, living soil
grass fed, grass finished black angus beef
pasture raised, fruit finished pigs
pasture raised chicken
unpasteurized raw honey
and a newly planted fruit orchard.
They make their own compost, worm castings, compost teas and microbial inoculants.
They do not use any commercial fertilizers, pesticides or herbicides on their farm. Over the weekend, Chris will demonstrate how to treat your grow like an ecosystem. You will learn to create robust, flavourful plants which are pest and disease resilient by utilizing cheap and/or free resources. Read More
