Custom Pork Orders
All our meat is organically raised on pasture at our state-of-the-art hog facility. You may purchase our meat by the whole hog or by the cut. Orders must be picked up by the customer, as Rodale Institute cannot ship hog and pork purchases.
Order a Whole Hog
To place an order for a whole hog:
-
- Please email us at FarmSales@RodaleInstitute.org to reserve your hog, submit your deposit, and choose a pick-up date.
- Once the deposit is processed, our Food Production Specialist, Jesse Barrett will contact you for more specifics about your desired cuts.
Whole hogs are $4.50 per pound, which is based on their hanging weight (200-220 pound average). Your deposit will be subtracted from the total cost of your hog upon pick-up.
On your pick-up date, please visit the Main Office at Rodale Institute Headquarters in Kutztown, PA, to pay your invoice. A staff member will then escort you to the freezer to load the product into your vehicle.
Lehigh Valley Meats butchering and processing fees will apply to orders. Please visit their website for more information and prices on butchering and other services.
Meat Cuts
To place an order for specific cuts, please contact Heather Gurk, Garden Store Manager, at Heather.Gurk@RodaleInstitute.org or 610-683-6009. You may pick up orders at the Garden Store during open hours.
