Swain Family Farm

I contacted Local Harvest to find a local farmer that was raising farm fresh hogs and found the Swain Family Farm with the help of Local Harvest representatives.

Stephanie is honest, helpful, answered all my questions and communicated with me often.

In the end, I received a wonderfully harvested hog and the best part is, IT TASTES EXCELLENT!. I explained to her that most of the hog was going to salting/curing such as for Speck, Culatello, smoked bacon and prosciutto. Most of the pork is on salt but I cut one loin in thirds, infused with cold smoked hickory sea salt and seasonings then slow cooked. That loin meat is some of the best I have tasted, beautiful.

I want to thank the guys at Local Harvest for assistance finding Swain Farms, the butchers in Petaluma and Stephanie for a fantastic slice of hog heaven. Great job.
