Marcel (17 years old) has been tending to 8 beautiful hogs this year. He has managed them since we received them as 10 week old piggies. They started their life adventure off in our Silvopasture, being rotated onto new soil every 5-12 days. This rotation brought them through forest soil full of tasty grubs, fallen nuts and fruit, and pasture. Once a full rotation was made, they moved to our 1 acre farm where they have been joyfully cleaning up behind our crops and nourishing the soil for the next round of garden goodness, again being rotated every 4-10 days. Needless to say, these pigs are amazingly healthy and have received a wonderful amount of love, care, fun, respect and sunshine. Marcel is very proud of the work he has done this year, the planning and execution of farming is no small task! The meat is rich and deeply nourishing. If you’ve ever wanted to fill your freezer with wholesome, local food that supports regenerative farming, this is your chance! We are offering two packages: half hog, and a whole hog. The half hog package includes a mix of cuts – soup bones, hocks, shanks, roasts, lard, ground pork, etc. Estimated weight is around 90 lbs of meat/bones/fat/etc. The whole hog includes just that, the whole wangdangthang. With the purchase of the whole hog, you have the option to custom select your cuts or to go with the default cuts. Estimated weight is around 180 lbs of meat/bones/fat/etc.
