Whole Hog Purchase Information
We are offering our pasture-raise Kune Kune pigs for sale! They have all been born and raise on pasture and fed a non-GMO, corn-free, soy free feed. This is a smaller heritage breed which grows a bit slower than the larger breeds and does very well foraging pasture land. Our pigs reach full size at around 1 year old and we have found they have wonderfully tasty meat that is packed with great nutrients! By purchasing a whole pig, you will receive around 110 lbs of pork from the butcher to fill your freezer.
Pigs will be taken to a local processors to be cut and wrapped. BeeWench will facilitate this, but the Pig Share Members will pay the processor directly. The cost for this is approximately $2.20 per lb (hang weight). There is addition cost to the processor per pound for sausage links and bacon.
*Should you desire to pick up your whole or half pig directly from the farm (uncut) please contact us directly.*
Your total out of pocket cost to BeeWench Farm is $800 for a whole pig
Our desire is for a whole Kune Kune pig to be approximately 200lbs live weight at processing. The Hang Weight should be approximately 150 lbs and the Packaged Weight around 110 lbs.
Your total out of pocket cost to the processor will be approximately $350 for a whole pig (also depending on cut choices and hang weight). We are happy to explain all of this and help with your cut sheet for the processor.
Your total out of pocket cost for a half pig share should be around $1,150 for a whole pig or about $10.50/lb. We sell most of our pork for about double that price, so this is an excellent deal if you are looking for high quality meat!
These costs are all approximate as they depend on the final weight of the pig and cut preferences.
