How to Order Our Pastured Pork
Majority of our sales are done through custom butchering. This sales method helps us focus on farming and keeps the butchering and packing costs down. Please fill out the cutting instructions to place your order for a 1/2 a hog. For a whole hog, submit the form twice and in the notes section indicate side A and side B.
- Half Hog* (~100-130lbs) at $5.25/lb $200 deposit
- Additional charge for smoking $1.35/lb of meat smoked
- Additional charge for lard rendering $15.00/ 4L pail
*All prices and weights are based on hanging weight, and include cutting, wrapping and freezing. Take-home weights are approximately 30-40% less than the hanging weight due to trimming and deboning.
Orders are taken along with a deposit to help defray production costs and guarantee your order. All pork comes to you frozen.

We try to aim for 110 lbs per side hanging weight but there can be A LOT of variation, so it's good to specify your preference for a smaller or larger hog - we'll then do our best to match the carcasses to your request. A 110 lb hanging weight side usually comes to about 70 to 80 lbs of meat cut and wrapped, depending a bit on the cutting options chosen.
This form is simplified to give customers the basic options. But if you know what you want and it is not on the form please feel free to make use of the notes section or leave a note for the butcher to call you and you can speak with them directly. (The call is usually the afternoon or evening before the butcher date).
Once you submit this form you will receive an emailed invoice asking for a deposit. Orders will be confirmed upon receipt of deposit. Deposits can be made via e-transfer m.thomas@perryscornersfarm.ca or drop off/mail cash or cheque. Please make cheques payable to Megan Thomas. Deposits are considered a commitment to purchase and are nonrefundable.
The butcher dates will be confirmed the week before the actual day, you will get a reminder email that they are booked in and an idea of when your pork will be ready to pick-up (approx two weeks later).
Pick-up takes place at Perry's Corners Farm Store. If you can not make it to the scheduled pick up time please contact Megan to make alternate arrangements in advance.
