Pork - Leaf Lard

Approx. 2.5 lb | Pastured Pork | Corn- & Soy-Free

On Sale!

Premium pork leaf lard from around the kidneys, prized by bakers for exceptionally light, flaky pastries and clean flavor.

Leaf lard is the highest-quality cooking fat on a pig, carefully trimmed from around the kidneys. Naturally mild in flavor and smooth in texture, it's long been the preferred fat for making flaky pie crusts, biscuits, pastries, tortillas, and other traditional baked goods. It's also excellent for frying, roasting vegetables, and everyday cooking.

What makes our pork special

Our pigs are raised outdoors with room to root, forage, and express their natural behaviors. They are fed a carefully sourced, non-GMO diet free from corn and soy and managed in small groups with a focus on animal health and low-stress handling. Every package is produced in small batches with the same care we bring to the rest of our farm.
