How Reserving a Pig Works.

1

Reserve

Place a deposit to secure your whole or half pig for the season.

2

Fill Out a Cut Sheet

Tell the butcher exactly what you want: chop thickness, ribs, roasts, ground pork, and more.

3

Pay Us

Pay the grower's fee based on hanging weight. Ownership of your portion transfers to you.

4

Pick Up at the Butcher

The butcher calls when it's ready. Pick up your pork there and pay their processing fees.

Smoked and cured items, like bacon or hams, cost a bit extra through the butcher. A filled-out cut sheet example is available on request. Limited pickup at the farm may be available. Ask when you reserve.
