There’s a big difference between pork raised on small farms and the factory-farmed meat you’ll find in the supermarket. Our pigs spend their days outdoors where they’re allowed to move freely and live comfortably, rooting in the soil, basking in the sun, and wallowing in the mud. It takes longer to raise pork this way but we believe it’s a better way to raise animals, and it produces meat with better texture and more flavor.

 

A side of pork (half a pig) is about 70–80 lbs and fits neatly into two or three boxes. 

 

Every order is custom processed and packaged by a local butcher to your exact wishes. Like thick-cut chops? Prefer smaller roasts for easy weeknight meals? Each order is cut and packaged to your exact specifications. We’ll walk you through the process so you can choose what works best for your kitchen.  Typical cuts usually include:

Pork chops

Ribs

Pork belly (usually used for bacon)

Ham

Sausage (Sweet Italian & Hot Italian are the most common)

Ground pork

Shoulder roasts for pulled pork and slow cooing

Tenderloin

Hocks, Fatback, and Bones – perfect for broths and soup and homemade lard which is fabulous for baking and many other uses. 

 

If you’d like smoked ham or bacon, we can connect you with several local smokehouses—or we can teach you how to do it yourself. Your side of pork comes frozen, vacuum sealed and and ready for all your favorite meals.
