April Jones also raises Tamworth heritage hogs as part of her operation, providing four acres of pasture for a breed she describes as being hearty and having a good personality. The rust color of the breed's skin makes them less prone to sunburn, which is an important characteristic for pastured hogs, she says. http://www.flickr.com/photos/usdagov/5573843101/in/photostream/ Photo Credit: USDA
