Our Pork Lard is rendered leaf lard and fat from pasture raised hogs β€” one of the most traditional, nourishing, and versatile cooking fats available. Before industrial seed oils took over, lard was the cooking fat of choice for generations of home cooks and professional kitchens alike. It has a high smoke point, a clean neutral flavor, and produces a richness in cooking and baking that no vegetable oil or shortening can replicate. It is real food from a real farm.

Our hogs are raised on chemical free pastures and woods where they root, roam, and forage freely. They are fed a corn, soy, and flax free non-GMO diet and raised with no antibiotics, no added hormones, and no vaccines. Lard from pasture raised hogs is richer in fat-soluble vitamins and has a completely different nutritional and flavor profile than commercially rendered lard from confinement-raised pigs.

If you have been avoiding lard because of outdated nutritional advice, it is time to reconsider. Lard from clean, pasture raised pork is a nutrient-dense, traditional fat that belongs back in your kitchen.

We ship your lard frozen with dry ice in eco friendly insulated packaging straight to your door, so you always have a clean, trusted cooking fat ready to elevate every meal you make.

Our meats are delivered frozen to best preserve the quality. We pack our products into insulated boxes with dry ice so even if you're not home when they are delivered they will stay fresh until you unpack them the evening of delivery.

We deliver all across the USA, except for Hawaii and Alaska.

There is a $99, $125, or $175 order minimum, depending on your state, to ensure we have enough product in your box to maintain a safe shipping temperature.

We deliver orders on a weekly basis and you will be given an estimatedΒ delivery date prior to confirming your order. Orders can arrive in as early as 2 days depending upon your order date. Deliveries will occur during standard UPS delivery times.

If your meat arrives damaged, or you’re not satisfied with the quality, email us within 10 days and we’ll replace it or credit your account – your choice.

How We Raise Our Pork

We raise various crosses of heritage breeds of hogs. Our hogs are probably my favorite animal on the farm. We work with a trusted breeder who provides top quality hogs for our pastured pork operation, but eventually we will take on the task of raising piglets ourselves.

The hogs spend their entire lives running about, laying under shade trees, taking mud baths and tilling the land with their powerhouse snouts.

The forest area that they live in is a combination of diversified pasture and wooded area. Hogs love the shade and, in the summer, they need it! We move them to a new paddock every 7 to 14 days depending on the weather, so they constantly have access to new forage. We start with piglets in the early spring and raise them for harvest in the fall.

Heritage breeds are known for their friendly personalities and their meat is prized for juiciness, flavor and tenderness. Our pork is pink-hued and heavily marbled for a delicious taste!

Our hogs are fed an all-natural, non-GMO, corn, flaxseedΒ & soy free feed. ItΒ consists wheat, barley, peas, probiotics, vitamins and minerals.

We never use antibiotics or growth hormones. All of our pork is processed at a family owned USDA inspected facility.
