Your hog will be brought in and processed near the beginning of August. I will reach out to go over your cut list when that time comes. Once it is ready I will bring it back from the butcher and you can pick it up from the farm.
HOW WE RAISE OUR PORK:
We farm in a way that models nature. Now we are taking our farming principles and putting them into practice with our "piggies" (as our 2-year-old calls them).
Instead of confining them in large barns, the pigs are in the woods and pasture as God intended. They happily roam our acorn glens in great health as they are rotated through our 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 from a local mill 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.
BUYING IN BULK
Buying in bulk is the best way feed your family on a budget. When you buy in bulk, you are saving us time and money, and we are more than happy to pass those savings on to you! Not only are you able to save money, but you are also ensuring you are feeding your family some of the most nutritionally-dense food! If you have the freezer space, we highly recommend taking this route.
