PASTURED PORK
Chef’s Pro Tips:
How To Cook The Perfect Grass-Fed Steak
so they are never chewy + my favorite beef fajitas recipe!
Our pigs roam a 5 acre oak woodlot and are free to forage for grasses, grubs and acorns. They are supplemented with an organic non-corn, non-soy, non GMO feed ration. We never administer antibiotics, vaccination, growth hormones or chemical dewormers so this meat is sure to be pure and clean.
The pork chops are delicious, the bacon is amazing!
The roasts cook up beautifully into Mexican Style Pulled Pork!
The lard can be rendered and used to make flakey pot pie crusts...is your mouth watering yet?
HOW TO BUY
Bulk
When you plan ahead you can reserve your half or whole hog with a deposit.
This reserves your hog for our next butcher date and helps cover the costs of feed so that your farmers can stay in business.
We are currently taking reservations for our 202 growing season. Reach out and ask when our next harvest date is.
Deposit Amount:
1/2 Hog $550
Whole Hog $1000
This amount would be deducted from your total and the remainder would be due at the time of pickup.
Processing fees are paid separately, directly to the butcher.
By The Cut
You can purchase individual cuts in our farm store while supplies last.
We are moving away from offering cuts individually, but occasionally we will have things in stock.
Being part of our email community ensures you hear about it first.
Here is our Farm Store location. Please make an appointment before you come.

HOW IT WORKS
When purchasing pork in bulk you save money and if you plan ahead you can customize how thick you want your pork chops, how you want your bacon and ham cured, and what kind of sausage you want.
We offer hogs by the half or whole based on the hanging weight (the weight of the hog once the entrails have been removed).
Hanging weight for a whole hog is approximately 200 lbs.
Hanging weight for a half hog is about 100 lbs.
Cut and wrapped you receive between 65%-75% of the hanging weight, so for a whole hog you could expect 130-150lbs of meat and for a half hog you could expect 65-75lbs.
Example of cuts you can choose from when purchasing a half or whole hog:
Shoulder Roasts (keep as roasts or grind into sausage)
Ham (cured, fresh leg roast or grind it into sausages)
Bacon (cured or fresh side)
Pork Chops (boneless or bone-in)
Sausage: Italian, Special Blend, Breakfast, Bratwursts or Fresh Ground
Ribs: Baby Back, Spare Ribs or Country Style
Lard: Back Fat and Leaf Lard
Bones: for broth or pet treats
Organ Meat: Heart, Liver, Kidney, Tongue, Trotters
Butchering Fees are additional and are paid directly to the processor when you pick up your meat.
