Whole Hog for Freezer
Bring home the heart of the farm with a whole hog, carefully raised on pasture and processed to your specifications for convenient, long-lasting storage. Our hogs are pasture-raised with a balanced diet and plenty of outdoor time, producing flavorful, well-marbled pork that holds up beautifully in the freezer.
What’s included
All primal and sub-primal cuts: shoulder (Boston butt & picnic), loin, spare ribs, belly, ham, tenderloin, and more.
Ground pork, trimmed and packaged to your size preference.
Sausages made to order from your hog, available in bulk links or bulk-packed.
Bones for stock, organs (liver, heart, kidneys) included on request.
Custom cut and packaging options: thickness, bone-in or boneless, vacuum-sealed packs for optimal freezer life.
Why choose a whole hog
Cost-effective: buying a whole hog saves significantly compared to individual cuts.
Variety: perfect for families who enjoy everything from slow-roasted hams and pulled pork to breakfast sausages and stir-fries.
Control: specify trim levels, grind preferences, and sausage recipes to suit your tastes.
Sustainability: using the whole animal reduces waste and supports responsible, local farming.
Portion and freezer estimate
Average take-home yield: approximately 60–70% of live weight after processing (varies by carcass size and chosen cuts).
Typical whole hogs yield 120–200+ lbs of packaged pork for the freezer, depending on live weight and trim choices.
Vacuum-sealed packages are labeled and sized for convenient stacking and long freezer life (up to 1 year for best quality).
