Last week we added a long overdue upgrade to the butcher shop - a thermal printer/scale!

After nearly a decade of hand writing thousands of labels… we now have much more professional printed labels for whole and parts (including weights!) + customers names!

🐖 Come to the homestead this fall for a 2.5 day hands on workshop where you will learn how to slaughter, butcher, and preserve two pigs from field to freezer (or fork!)

During this workshop, you will have the opportunity to:

— Learn how to slaughter on site with a low tech set up - including scalding & scraping

— Have hands on experience with seam butchery: breaking down into primals, subprimals, and finally - usable cuts

— Learn how (and why!) to use organ meats

— Learn how to cure bacon, render your own lard, and make sausages

— And much more!

On site lodging also available. Limited spacing. The Declercq Homestead
