We are taking deposits for our spring harvest.

Here’s how it works:
1. You choose if you want a half or
whole.
2. Place your deposit. Cash,
PayPal, Venmo or card.
3. You are assigned a processing
date.
4. We feed and take care of your
hog until it reaches market
weight.
5. Within a month prior to
processing you complete your
preference sheet. That tells us
how you want your meat.
6. We transport to the processor
on the assigned date.
7. The live weight is obtained and
communicated to you.
8. You pay your balance minus the
deposit and we pay the
processor.
9. You pick your meat up from the
processor and enjoy
your pasture raised pork.

How do you know if someone's Berkshires are pedigreed and 100% purebred?

1. Color. Berkshire pigs are predominately black with white faces. They may have some white hair on their body. Registered Berkshire pigs do not have any other coloring, including red or orange.

2. Ear notches. Registered Berkshire pigs have their DNA traced over a hundred years. This is done through permanent identification of the animal: ear notches.

Look at the photos of the pigs where you're buying your pork from. If they do not meet the color requirements and/or do not have ear notches, they are not pedigreed and are not Registered with Berkshire Pork.

Every ounce of premium pork we produce is bred, born and raised on our farm. The advantage of that is we know how they are handled and what they are fed. We make sure every hog we own has a charmed life. We don’t confine them nor do we use farrowing crates. The sows farrow where they want and require minimal assistance, the babies roam and play. We don’t purchase hogs that are ready to butcher for the purpose of selling meat. We raise our own, treat our animals like pets and produce the highest quality pork.

Instant Pot Carnitas Recipe | Lemon Blossoms

For those of you that have been asking me how to prepare the fresh ham steaks/roasts, this is one of the recipes I use. I substitute the shoulder for fresh ham and it turns out yummy.

https://www.lemonblossoms.com/blog/instant-pot-carnitas/

Instant Pot Pork Carnitas are mouthwatering tender and juicy. Cooked in the pressure cooker then broiled to golden crispy perfection.
