A coworker and her husband have a small hobby farm where they raise Berkshires. She asked me the other day if I was interested in some back fat. 22+ lbs at no cost:

    Thanks Nola. She tells me that most customers don’t want the fat when they buy pigs so she ends up with a lot of excess. I am also buying half a Berkie from her - told her I want the hind leg and belly left fresh so that I can make my own bacon and prosciutto.
