Call (231-825-0293) or e-mail BakersGreenAcres@yahoo.com if you are interested in live animals. Butcher hogs are $3.00/lb., which includes basic processing.  Bacon and ham are a bit extra. This is a great time to fill the freezer with fabulous pork! Mangalitsa pork chopIMG_3469The butcher hogs have been raised on pasture, hay, and small grains.  You can have “nitrate free” cures for bacon and ham.  This is the perfect pork for making bone broth, lard, and enjoying red, well marbled pork.  The Mangalitsa is a heritage pig renowned for producing copious amounts of premium quality lard and wonderfully red, flavorful meat.  If you haven’t tried it before, now is the time! You can reserve your half or whole, or order the cuts you want, from the website!  We can ship via UPS to your door or you can pick your order up and see the farm.
