LARD: pork rendered fat

Pork lard is a healthy, traditional fat that can be used for cooking, baking, sautéing, deep frying, and seasoning cast iron pans. It has more of a neutral-flavor which means you can use it in a variety of ways without having an overwhelming distinct flavor. If you haven't used it to make pie crust, then you are in for a beautiful, flaky treat! You can use it in your baking in the place of anything that calls for butter or crisco, while enjoying its healthy benefits.

After cod liver oil, pasture-raised pork is the second highest source of vitamin D. Vitamin D is good for supporting a healthy immune system, brain activity, muscle function, bone health, and your overall well-being. Lard from pork that is raised outdoors in the sun contains much higher levels of vitamin D than pigs that are confined indoors. This important vitamin is passed on to you when you consume pork fat/lard.

It is also useful in many household applications including for skin and hair care, soap making, wood and leather conditioning, and other home remedies.

HOW WE RAISE OUR FOREST-RAISED PIGS :

We farm in a way that models nature. Instead of confining the animals in large barns, the pigs are in the woods as God intended. Rather than using many chemicals to keep them alive because of atrocious and unnatural living conditions, they happily roam our acorn glens in our rotational grazing paddocks. 

They forage for acorns, walnuts, roots, and other sweet treats provided by nature. Because they are not left to stand in their feces, it eliminates the need for antibiotics and other artificial interventions. They are also supplemented with a non-GMO grain to meet any other nutritional needs. 

They take in much nutrition by moving regularly through the woods, which means this nutrition is passed on to you through the meat! When you eat our woodland pork, you receive the micro and macronutrients the pigs receive through the fresh and diverse diet they eat.
