Half and Whole Pig Details

$6.50/lb by hanging weight, including the cost of slaughter and butchering.

Smoking is additional.

add $3.96/lb for nitrate free bacon

add $3.55/lb for nitrate free hams or ham steaks

I expect hanging weight to be 100-140lbs (half) or 200-280lbs (whole)

Final Cuts are 65-70% of the hanging weight, equaling 65-100lbs (half), 130-200lbs (whole).

From an average weight pig:

1.25lbs Tenderloin

Delicious and easy to cook. No elaborate recipes needed.

Certified organic means my pigs are only fed certified organic grain, graze and forage on land where chemicals and pesticides are never used, always have access to the outdoors, and are never treated with antibiotics, synthetic dewormers, or hormones. 

In the summer my pigs graze and forage through my pastures and woods. In the winter they have a barn for shelter and outdoor runs filled with wood chips and hay bales. 

I raise my pigs from birth to slaughter which means I control every step and can ensure they are raised they way I want them to be from birth. 

I raise a mix of breeds and am constantly experimenting with different breeding to produce pigs with the mix of traits that best fits my farm. Some of the traits I breed for are good temperament (friendly pigs), grazing and foraging, and meat quality and flavor. A few of the breeds in the mix I raise are Idaho Pasture Pig, Large Black, Mangalista, and Ossabaw. 

Piglets

Along with farrowing piglets to raise myself, I have some available for sale every year, spring and fall. 

My piglets are certified organic, males are castrated at 7-10 days old, and they are weaned at 6-8 weeks.

The breeds I raise are best suited to be raised outdoors, on pasture and/or woodlands.
