Forest Hog Boxes - Now Available to Order!

Posted on Sep 28, 2021

Our Forest Hogs are a special once a year treat!

Normal hogs are processed at about 6-7 months. Forest hogs grow over twice as long. This huge investment of extra time is what helps make these so outstanding!

These hogs are a small lard heritage breed so there is more marbling even than our other heritage breed hogs.

  • The meat is moist and rich.
  • The chops are small and very thick cut, almost like a mini-roast.
  • The sugar free rosemary brats pair super well with the delicate flavor of the Forest Hog fat.
  • The fat is completely different than what you’ve had with our other pork. It is soft and some bites taste almost like butter!

These hogs are raised special for our members by our long time farmer Kerry Skelton. Kerry started his farm to fulfill his childhood dream of becoming a farmer. His farm was just down the road from our original TC Farm homestead and has been partnering with us from almost the beginning. Kerry is passionate about breed preservation; he's the reason we started raising Forest Hogs many years ago. Now Kerry raises them on his own farm, making them available once a year for our group!

Organic herb seasoning

One package of our herb smoked forest hog back fat! 

You can render the entire package at once and store in the fridge to fry your favorite veggies, eggs or potatoes -- or really anything you'd use an amazing flavored fat for. 

We often slice thin and fry in the pan to melt instead of butter or other oils. Then we get some crispy goodness from the fat plus the flavor of the oil to fry whatever we are cooking. 


The seasoning we use is the same as our herb-bacon - no sugar and no celery nitrates, just organic herbs and seasoning.
