Understanding Quality: Why Wellshire Bacon Makes a Difference

Just thinking about a piece of thick sliced bacon might already have your mouth watering—ours sure are. What if you could enjoy bacon as ethically made as it is delicious? Enter Wellshire, a leader in all-natural, sustainable meats.

From applewood smoked bacon to organic turkey bacon, we have options your whole family will love. Read on to discover how our uncured bacon upholds quality standards across the board—and why it’s so tasty as a result!

The Wellshire Way

At Wellshire, we’re committed to making products that prioritize your well-being while respecting the animals we raise. Our meats uphold our values without compromising on flavor, and all Wellshire bacon is:

  • Uncured – We don’t add any artificial preservatives to cure our meats. Instead, we use natural ingredients like celery powder, Swiss chard, and sea salt to achieve curing in a safe, clean way. 
  • All-natural – No artificial ingredients, minimally processed. Not only is our bacon free of preservatives like nitrates, but it also never contains any of the following: antibiotics, growth hormones, MSG, added chemicals, and other artificial ingredients. 
  • Humanely raised – All animals are vegetarian fed and never administered any animal by-products. Our animals graze freely on family-owned farms, giving them a stress-free upbringing with dignity and care. 
  • Allergy-safe – We use transparent labeling to ensure you’re aware of potential allergens. That said, our bacon is free of gluten, dairy, corn, nuts, soy, and casein.

Plus, all our animals are vegetarian-fed, which is better for you, our animals, and the environment. Let’s break down why.

Benefits of Grass Feeding

Vegetarian diets consist of plant-based foods, such as grass or hay, rather than grain-based feeds like corn or soy. Vegetarian feeding is more ethical, sustainable, and nutritious than grain-based feeds because grass-fed diets:

  • Allow animals to graze freely
  • Require less water
  • Nourish animals naturally
  • Provide beneficial nutrients to consumers

These benefits explain why more and more farmers are switching to grass feed—and why Wellshire chooses clean vegetarian diets for our animals. 

Dig Into Wellshire Pork Bacon

We’re proud to offer seven types of high-quality uncured pork bacon. Most of our bacon has no water added, which not only gives you more bang for your buck but allows the bacon to sizzle in its own natural juices and seasoning rather than in excess water. 

With a range of options, you’re sure to find your favorite.
