Bruce Kaufman

Bruce Kaufman is a Tamworth pig breeder in Crawfordsville, IA, serving southeast Iowa near Iowa City. He has raised Tamworth pigs for more than ten years, is a member of the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy, follows health-testing guidelines recommended for heritage swine, and records lineage details for each litter. His breeding stock lives in pasture-based pens where pigs have room to forage, and piglets are handled daily from birth.

Many of his sows come from conservation herds with pedigrees maintained for genetic diversity, and his boars have placed well at state agricultural shows. He uses rotational grazing to support soil health as well as animal welfare on his family farmstead. Prospective owners receive clear health records for each pig and practical guidance on integrating heritage swine into a small-scale farm environment. Local farmers note his steady focus on sound temperament and strong foraging instincts in each litter.
