How well could you hold up to the pressure of being locked in a metal crate so small, you cant sit, touch your toes, or turn around? Watch the crate challenge to see if you could last four minutes! Four minutes in a crate is nothing compared to the four years, which is how millions of sows are living their lives right now in gestation crates. Organic meat production requires pasture time and organic feed the way nature intended. In nature, a sow will build a nest of grass and other forage a few days before giving birth. In industrial pig farms, sows will be moved from a gestation crate to a slightly larger farrowing crate so that her piglets have room to nurse. Soon after giving birth a sow will be re-impregnated and returned to a gestation crate to repeat the cycle all over again. This cycle usually lasts four years and then the sow is slaughtered without ever experiencing life outside of a crate.
