Since 1956, Carlton Farms has partnered with Pacific Northwest family farmers who raise animals naturally and humanely, without the use of hormones or growth accelerants. They process their products using hand techniques in their facility, ensuring a truly handcrafted approach. Carlton Farms never uses artificial flavors or chemicals in the curing or aging process of their meats. Their smoked products are cured with salt and sweet brines, dry-aged, and smoked over hardwood fires. Fresh pork is processed and delivered within 24 hours for maximum freshness. With a focus on exceptional product quality and customer service, Carlton Farms has become a trusted choice for restaurants, food services, fine markets, and discerning consumers for over five decades.
