"You are not only what you eat, but what your food eats and that is more important than anything." 

When you consume our pork, you are not only eating delicious forest raised protein. You are eating pork that has spent its life consuming the same medicinal herbs prescribed by nutritionists as supplements for optimal health:

• Astragalus
• Echinacea
• Licorice Root
• Rose Hips
• Goldenrod
• Yarrow
• Bergamont
• Mallow
• and many more! 

You can pre-order your half or full pork anytime, but we only butcher in late September to early November because we work with the natural cycles. Thank you for becoming part of our Farm Family, now let your journey begin!

Half Pork - What to expect (x 2 for a full pork)

• Pricing is $3.99/lb x pork hanging weight (average weight of 110 lbs)
  
• Average Total Price: $438.90. We require a non-refundable deposit of $247 and will tell you for the balance once the butcher gives us the exact hanging weight. The fees for cutting and wrapping are not included in our per pound pricing and will be calculated prior to pick-up or delivery.
• Because we work with a quality custom butcher, you choose your cuts! For example, if you'd prefer more ground pork and less roasts, etc., just ask for these cuts to be ground instead. 
• A half pork would nearly fill the freezer portion of an average fridge freezer.
  

Our price is based off hanging weight which refers to the weight after dressing (removing skin, organs, etc.).

What you take home depends on:

• moisture lost during dry aging
• if you take organs and bones
• if you get sausages with beefadded
• if you ask for cuts to be deboned
  

Our half pork is roughly 110 lbs. hanging weight (or 220 pounds for a full pork).

Here is a list of the various cuts you can receive: 

• Pork chops
• Hams
• Picnic Ham
  
• Boston Butt Roast (also available as Boston Butt Ham - absolutely delicious!)
  
• Spare Ribs
  
• Bacon (you can get more bacon by requesting shoulder bacon, back bacon and jowl bacon, but this will use meat more commonly used for other cuts)
  
• Hocks (cured or fresh)
  
• Sausages
• Ground pork
• Soup bones
  
• Organ meats (optional, or you can have added to your ground pork and sausages for even more nutrient density!)
  
• Remember, this is just a guide, and you choose how you want things cut! We're happy to help fill out your cutting instructions and answer any questions that you have!

What You Gain From This Purchase Aside From The Best Pork You'll Ever Eat 

- Consultation with your new farm family. We can set up a time to chat, if you need! We will help you with any questions you have (Freezer space, how to determine what cuts you would like, if this amount of meat will be enough to serve your family. Most of our customers order all the pastured protein our farm has to offer). We can also discuss delivery and pickup!

- Relationship with your new farm family 

- The knowledge that your purchase helps further improve the health of the land, animals and in return the food you purchase each year.

- The knowledge that your purchase is helping us grow the next generation of young farmers that we hope will be more passionate and more knowledgeable than the previous generation.

Please note that the price DOES NOT INCLUDE cutting and wrapping. Processing varies widely depending on cutting your personal preferences, processing fees will still be owed to the processor. 

You can request delivery within Manitoba for a fee calculated once we have the weight of your package or you can pick up on farm or at the butcher. At checkout, it will show FREE shipping (This is only because we cannot determine price of shipping until the weight of product is determined) We will keep in contact with you!
