PLEASE BE AWARE WE ARE LOCATED IN KANSAS. WE DO NOT SHIP PORK. 

Have the peace of mind knowing your freezer is stocked with high quality local pork.  Faye Farms hogs are rotationally grazed.  What does that mean?  They always have access to fresh pastures. No dirt lot pigs here!   In addition to fresh pasture, our hogs are fed a diet of local grains as well as all of the excess milk from our dairy. No additional medications or hormones are given to our hogs.

SO THIS IS HOW THE PROCESS WORKS TO BUY A BUTCHER HOG FROM FAYE FARMS :

• Pick your butcher date and place a $150 deposit for a whole hog or a $75 deposit for a half hog. We will deliver your hog to our processor, Walnut Valley Packing in El Dorado, Kansas.

• Once you have reserved your hog it is your responsibility to call WVP with your cutting instructions.

  • Walnut Valley Packing's phone number is 316-321-3595.

  • Instructions need to be called in BEFORE your scheduled butcher date. If instructions are not received by WVP they will go ahead and process your hog using their "standard cut".

• After processing you will be responsible for picking up your cuts of meat and paying WVP directly for the processing of your pig.

• After the pigs are processed I will get the hanging weight of your pig from WVP. I will then send you a final bill based on the hanging weight of the pig less the $150 or $75 deposit.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Here are some estimates to give you an idea of what your hog will cost and what you will be getting. We shoot for pigs that average 175 lbs. hanging weight. Please keep in mind that these are estimates. The numbers can vary due to the variability between individual pigs and/or due to your cutting instructions.

Whole Pig  (175 lbs hanging weight)

175 lbs hanging weight x $3.00/lb =$525

175 lbs hanging weight x $2.30/lb basic processing=$402.50 processing fees

Total Cost=$927.50 (Approximate lbs of packaged pork is 140 lbs.) 

Half Pig (88 lbs hanging weight)

88 lbs hanging weight x $3.50/lb = $308

88 lbs hanging weight x $2.30/lb basic processing = $202.40

Total Cost = $510.40 (Approximate lbs of packaged pork is 70lbs)

• Processing costs- basic processing is $2.30 per pound based off the hanging weight. Specialty bacon, brats or summer sausage is an additional cost.
