How It Works

2. Customize your cuts with the butcher (chops, roasts, bacon, sausage, and more).
3. Pick up your pork and enjoy exceptional flavors all year long.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I pay a deposit up front? The deposit transaction is proof that you hold a share of ownership in the live animal.
Why do I pay the butcher directly? As the owner of the live animal, you are paying for it to be custom-processed according to your cut instructions.
Can I select my processing date? Processing dates are booked months in advance to align with expected finishing weights of the animal. We are currently offering March 2026 and April 2026 processing dates.
Important Information
Whole hog shares are non-refundable and cannot be applied to any other products in our farm store. Once the animal leaves our farm for your order, you are financially responsible for it. These shares are custom-processed and cannot be sold in our farm store, meaning a last-minute cancellation results in a significant loss to our farm. Please ensure you're fully committed before placing your order.
We're so excited to share our first pork harvest with you—thank you for supporting Lewis Family Farms!
