Which Pork Share Is Right for Your Family?
If you're here, chances are you've already decided you'd like to fill your freezer with better pork.
Now comes the next question...
Which pork share is actually right for your family?
Should you start with a sampler?
Would a quarter hog be enough?
Is a half hog too much?
Should you customize an entire hog?
These are questions we hear all the time, and the truth is, there isn't one "best" option.
The best hog share is simply the one that fits your family's lifestyle.
Whether you're feeding two people or ten, cooking every night or just getting started with buying food in bulk, we'll help you find the right fit.
If You're New to Buying Pork Directly From the Farm...
Start simple.
Our Pork Sampler was created for families who want to experience the difference before filling an entire freezer.
You'll enjoy a variety of our most popular cuts—from bacon and breakfast sausage to chops, ribs, and a roast—so you can discover what makes our pork different without making a large commitment.
It's a great first step if you've never purchased pork directly from a farm before.
If You're Ready to Start Filling Your Freezer...
Our Curated 1/8 Pork is often where families begin.
It gives you enough variety to make weeknight dinners easy while keeping the freezer space and investment manageable.
Instead of buying pork one package at a time, you'll have bacon, chops, roasts, sausage, ribs, and ground pork ready whenever you need them.
If You Cook at Home Most Nights...
Our Curated Quarter Pork has become one of our favorite recommendations.
It gives families a generous assortment of everyday cuts without requiring a huge freezer.
Many of our customers find it's the perfect balance between convenience, variety, and value.
If You Want to Stock Your Freezer for Months...
Our Curated Half Pork was designed specifically for families who love having great food ready whenever they need it.
One of the biggest reasons people hesitate to buy a hog is the cutting instructions.
Fresh or smoked?
Belly or bacon?
How thick should the chops be?
It can be overwhelming.
That's why we created our Curated Half Pork.
Instead of asking you to make dozens of unfamiliar decisions, we've already done that work for you.
We've chosen the same cuts my own family reaches for time and time again, creating a freezer package that's balanced, practical, and incredibly enjoyable to cook from.
If You Already Know Exactly What You Want...
Our Whole Pork gives you complete control.
You'll customize every cut to fit your family's preferences, from bacon and ham to chop thickness and specialty cuts.
If you've purchased a hog before—or simply know exactly how you'd like your freezer stocked—this option gives you the flexibility to build it your way.
No Matter Which Pork Share You Choose...
Every pig is raised exactly the same way.
They're born right here on our farm in Havre de Grace, Maryland.
They spend their lives outdoors with access to wooded paddocks where they root, forage, wallow, and simply live as pigs were designed to live.
They're fed a tested, chemical-free, non-GMO ration that's free from corn, soy, and shellfish.
We never use growth hormones, antibiotics, or vaccines.
Our bacon and hams are naturally smoked and uncured without nitrates, nitrites, MSG, or added sugars.
Our sausage is made with simple herbs and spices—not unnecessary fillers.
Whether you choose a sampler or a whole hog, you'll receive the same carefully raised pork we're proud to feed our own family.
Which One Feels Right for Your Family?
You don't need to become an expert in pork butchery.
You don't need to know every cut.
You don't even need to know how much pork you'll eat next year.
You simply need to choose the option that best fits your family today.
If you're still unsure, we're always happy to help.
We'll answer your questions, walk you through the options, and help you choose the hog share that's the best fit for your freezer—not the biggest one.
Because our goal has never been simply to sell pork.
Our goal is to help your family enjoy food you can trust, raised by people you know.
