I’ve bought two pigs through Alan Irving and I have to say they’re quite delicious. The economics aren’t bad either. When everything is said and done about $4/lb for Berkshire, which is quite reasonable. I end up cutting up the whole pig myself and making bacon/hams out of it. The best part is they have great facilities at the farm to butcher your own pig if you don’t have the tables, space, etc…

I really try to get my students to look at this all of the time. Really loved going to the Hutterite Farms as a kid, and taking my students there as a teacher…. you brought back a couple of memories.
