Decide you want to invest in some delicious pasture raised meat from a local farm. Preferably WCF but I hope this guide helps even if you don’t choose us! Reach out to the farmer and inquire about availability, prices, and timing.

* this guide is specific to the process we follow with our customers so things might vary for another farm*

Once you have decided to make that investment we will have you place a non-refundable deposit & fill out a deposit form with all your contact information. Availability will greatly be influenced by time of the year and processing dates available at the local meat processors. Now is a good time to make sure you have the freezer space available for the amount you purchased. A good rule of thumb is 3.5 Cubic ft. for 1/2 hog, and 6-7 Cubic ft. for a Whole Hog. 2-3 Cubic ft. for a Whole Lamb.

I will send a reminder to you a week before your processing date that final payment will be due the day of. We will take the animal to the processor of your choice (that we could get a date at) and later that day they will contact me with a hanging weight. Hanging weight is the weight of the animal carcass after slaughter and being processed. Price per LB depends on the animal and choices you made (whole vs half). Current prices will be listed in our store section.

I will reach out to you and send your finalized invoice. The cost of your non-refundable deposit will be deducted from final invoice. We accept all forms of payment and will gladly assist you in navigating online payment methods.

Once your final invoice is paid we will let the butcher know, and usually within that week they will be giving you a call to go over what is called a cut sheet. This is where you get to make this meat work best for your family- bone in/out, thickness of chops, patties or links, and choices on keeping parts of the animal like leaf lard etc. The cost of processing can vary depending on your choices (ie smoking meats more processing costs more) but usually 75-120$ is average.

The processor will usually call or txt you that your meat is ready for pickup. This can take 1-3 weeks depending on the choices you made (smoking meats takes longer). You will arrange all pickup with the processor directly & pay their fees upon pickup. the next part is the best-go home and enjoy your delicious, marbled meat knowing that you supported a local farm and made an ethically conscious choice for the environment.
