Our pasture-raised leaf lard is the highest-quality, most tender fat from around the pig’s kidneys, prized for baking, cooking, and all your culinary creations. Exceptionally clean and neutral in flavor, it produces flaky pie crusts, tender pastries, and rich, flavorful dishes. With a high smoke point and pure consistency, it’s versatile enough for frying, general baking, or any recipe that benefits from premium, pasture-raised pork fat.
We offer ready-to-use leaf lard in 1-pint tubs, weighing about 14 oz each. The raw fat comes exclusively from our pasture-raised hogs. This is old-fashioned, non-hydrogenated lard with no added stabilizers — nothing but pure, rendered fat. For best quality, refrigerate or freeze; it will last for many months in the fridge and up to a year or more in the freezer.
Leaf lard is considered the finest fat on the hog, making it the perfect choice for pastry enthusiasts and home cooks alike. Its neutral flavor lets the natural richness of your dishes shine, while its premium pasture-raised quality delivers flavor and texture you can taste in every bite.
Note: This lard is made in a non-certified kitchen.
Raised and crafted with integrity:
Our pigs are born and raised right here on our farm in Morris, Illinois. They are fed locally grown, non-GMO feed and have access to free-range pasture forage, allowing them to grow naturally and humanely.
🚫We never use vaccines, antibiotics, or the routine additives commonly used in conventional pork production.
All of our pork is processed at a certified organic facility using organic seasonings and spices, giving you clean, wholesome flavor you can feel confident serving your family.
