Genießer-Strohschweine from Saxony – animal welfare, regionality & genuine enjoyment! 

The Genießergenossenschaft saxony stands for responsible meat quality. Our gourmet straw pigs are raised in a species-appropriate manner on straw in modern outdoor climate-controlled pens – with outdoor access, mud baths for cooling off and underfloor heating in winter. This allows them to express their natural behaviour.

Our piglets come from a partner farm in the neighbouring village – contractually supervised, short distances, minimal stress from day one.

We give our animals twice as much time as usual: six months of fattening ensure more marbling and an intense flavour.

The feed comes from our own production – from grain to linseed. The resulting linseed press cake gives our meat a naturally high omega-3 content.

Unique: slaughter takes place just 30 metres from the barn. Our pigs go to the slaughterhouse independently and stress-free – without transport, hecticness or unfamiliar surroundings.

Processing is carried out by our experienced Saxon butchers – from grain to sausage, everything stays within our cooperative.
