Beeler’s Unveils New Heluka Pork

LE MARS, Iowa –Todays consumer is more concerned about how farmers treat
their animals than ever before. They are asking for more humanely raised
animals. Our Heluka pork meets those concerns as well as being antibiotic and
growth promotant free, says Tim Beeler.

The Beelers, fifth generation hog farmers from Iowa, recognized this trend and
developed their Heluka system of pig rearing. Heluka, Beeler said, Is a
Native American word meaning full of sun. Heluka seemed an appropriate name
as our pigs are free to go outside to enjoy fresh air, sunshine, and yes even
the snow.

There are no individual gestation crates on Heluka farms. Instead sows mingle
together in large, deep bedded pens allowing them to express their natural
instincts for rooting and nesting. And of course we allow our sows to go
outside whenever they want.

Their Heluka system does not use farrowing crates. When birthing time comes
mamma is moved into her own private maternity ward. She is allowed to get up,
turn around, and lie down in full recumbency allowing for her total comfort
while giving birth to her young.

Heluka grow out stables are very unique. Pigs are allowed to roam about in
large deep bedded pens, where they can express their natural instincts for
rooting, nesting and playful exercise. Just like children on a playground,
Julie Beeler states.

While Beelers Heluka system is all about enhancing the life of the pig, they
have not forgotten the product also needs to satisfy the palate! They use a very
specific Duroc line, selected to bring flavor back into the meat. We want you
to enjoy one of the best tasting pork chops ever, added Beelers daughter
Abigail. We focus on things like PH and marbling to enhance the flavor of
Heluka pork, Beeler added.

Of course they use their Heluka pork when making their Quite possibly the best
tasting bacon, ham, and sausage on the planet, as proclaimed on their labels.
And good it must be, as they have won awards for their All Natural Preservative
Free Boneless Ham, Natural Casing Weiner, and just recently their Apple
Cinnamon Bacon was named the best sweet bacon by Everyday with Rachel Ray.

In summary Beeler states, By purchasing our pork products you show you not only
care about the animals but also support family farming.
