Stamboom Meats

Located in the upper Hood River Valley, the farm specializes in heritage breeds that thrive in forests and open spaces. Known for their farm-raised fresh and cured meats, they employ traditional European techniques to hand-make their products. The farm aims to create awareness about the connection between the land, the farmer, the animal, and the eating experience.

The farm employs rotational pasturing practices, raising animals in a way that produces slow-growing, well-marbled meat ideal for charcuterie while focusing on the health and sustainability of the land. The pigs forage on the forest floor, consuming acorns, leaves, worms, roots, and tubers, which contributes to a balanced and healthy animal. By caring for the land, they provide an ideal growing habitat for their specialty heritage pigs.

Customers can order online or find their products at the Hood River or Mosier Farmers Markets. The farm emphasizes the importance of understanding and appreciating the origins of meat production, advocating for a perspective that honors and respects the resources involved in creating meat.
