Happy Saturday everyone! Just wanted to throw an idea we have had out there see what the interest would be on people purchasing Whole or Half Hogs we have raised on the Hester Homestead. The Hog breed would be a mix in these percentages:

* 37.5% Gloucestershire Old Spot
* 37.5% Duroc
* 25% Red Wattle

What would this look like.

We would raise the pigs and be in charge of getting the feed for them. Customer would have the choice between purchasing a Whole or Half Hog. We will not be selling already processed meat cuts at this time.

What the consumer would be responsible for:

Deposit to hold your hog when piglets are 8 weeks and remaining hanging weight fees once at processor payable to Hester’s Homestead. Our price sheet for Whole and Half Hogs is linked below.

Your own processing fees which would be payable directly to the processor. You will be responsible for picking up your processed meat from the processor of our choice. We will be partnering with Freedom Custom Meats in Plant City, FL for processing. Their cut sheet is also linked below.

We got to taste our very first Hester Homestead raised steer. This meat was by far the most tender I’ve ever eaten in my life. I want to thank God for providing us the means to raise our own food. To some it might be sad to know their animals then use them for this purpose, but I take heart in knowing these animals love the best life while in our care. They are not on some huge plant being pumped with hormones. They are part of us. Thank you also to Bay Lake Farms, Groveland, Fl 34736 for handling the processing for us!!!
