Our Mission: Cochon 555 is a one-of-a-kind traveling culinary competition and tasting event--five chefs, five pigs, five wine makers--to promote sustainable farming of heritage breed pigs. Each stop along the ten-city tour offers hard-working local farmers the opportunity to connect with like-minded agriculturalists, renowned chefs and the pork-loving public. Our goal is to help family farms sustain and expand their businesses and to encourage breed diversity. Cochon 555 is the only heritage breed pig culinary competition in the country.

It's not just farm to table that matters--it's what happens in between, the how and where, the history of what we eat. More and more of us want to skip the processing and get our foods straight from the pasture but we don't always know how to get it, where to look, or what to ask for. The epicurean audience at every Cochon 555 event enjoys a direct link to the sources, a chance to learn from food experts.

About us: Brady Lowe, Founder of Cochon 555 and President & Creative Director of Taste Network, is passionate about increasing awareness of the sources that support a more natural, sustainable food system. He thinks the best way to spread the word is through unique culinary experiences. Says Lowe, "One event can not change the entire food production system (not yet, anyway), but we can celebrate people who are favorably tilting the scales back towards local producers." His events draw together top chefs, winemakers, farmers, thought-leaders, foodies, food media and responsible consumers to celebrate artisan foods and producers.
