You Want To Feed Your Family Pork From Your Farm But Don't Know Where To Start

Meet Your Instructor
I'm a homesteader turned professional butcher. Caring for livestock and transforming them into people food is what I do every single day.
My wife and I started keeping a productive home in 2016 - gardening, keeping backyard chickens, added bees, then pigs, then cattle and sheep.
After I learned to harvest my own pigs from a local mentor, I was hooked. So we opened our own meat processing shop on our farm.
It wasn't long before we started sharing our passion with others through in-person workshops and classes.
As a homesteader, I know the unique joys and challenges of producing food on a domestic scale.
As a professional butcher, I have the skill that comes from butchering tens of thousands of pounds of pork and beef.
I still homestead and run our abattoir alongside building the most effective online programs for homesteaders who want to turn their homes into productive households.
My journey started with a willing mentor; now I'm willing to be yours.
Who This Course IS For?
You want to learn how to raise and harvest pork on your homestead - or you want to do it better.
We start from the ground up so the program can take you from dreaming to doing; however, this program also helps experienced homesteaders learn next level methods.
People who prefer action to procrastination. If you want to procrastinate, YouTube is the better place.
Who This Course IS NOT For?
You are looking to make a living from raising pigs. This course will teach you useful things for pig business enterprises, but the focus is on domestic-scale pork production. There are probably better courses out there for commercial hog farming.
You already know everything about homesteading and pig farming, slaughtering, and butchering and are not interested in taking instruction from someone else.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long do I have access to the program & when does it start?
How does lifetime access sound?
During the Pre-Launch period, you will immediately have access to the online community and any course content already in the library. As new content is added, you'll automatically have access to the remainder of the course.
The Pre-Launch sale closes on April 30. Will have the course content released within two weeks after the pre-launch period closes. Some will be available sooner.
Can't I learn all of this on Youtube?
YouTube is a fabulous resource with more free tutorials on pigs and pork than anyone can watch.
We even produce free stuff on YouTube, too!
But a side effect of learning on YouTube is that you waste dozens of hours learning the same thing or searching for tutorials that only partially answer questions and leave you without a clear path forward.
Not to mention the problems of: 1) never feeling a sense of accomplishment (you know, like you actually finally learned the thing you intended); 2) never actually having relationships with other homesteaders or your instructor.
If you want a clear path to mastering the art of domestic pork production and the benefit of a likeminded community, this course is for you.
Plus, what's your time worth?
This program will save you weeks, months, even years of YouTubing and trial and error.
For many, that's $127 $48 well spent!
If not for you, keep on with YouTube.
Do I need to have a homestead before starting?
Nope!
One of the best decisions of my life was investing in homesteading and farming related books and courses years BEFORE buying land and doing the thing.
Not only did what I learned help me once on the homestead, it helped me better discern what we actually wanted out of our homestead, what land was the right land, and so on.
What skill level is this program for?
This course is well suited to beginners and experienced homesteaders alike. We know what it's like to start from no knowledge and we know the more advanced stuff that makes more sense once you have a few pigs under your belt (as in, in your belly).
What if I just want to learn how to raise pigs and leave the butchering to some one else?
Totally fine!
The course will give you everything you need to decide on how to integrate pigs into your homestead, even if you don't plan to self-harvest. And the course is priced comparably to other online courses that only provide a single topic area (e.g. only teaching you how to raise pigs).
Even if you don't want to slaughter and butcher your pigs right now, you may want to (or need to) at some point in the future. You'll have lifetime access to all content, so it's there when you need it.
PLUS, the butchering section will be incredibly helpful for you when deciding how to ask your local slaughterhouse to butcher your pork.
