Carlton Farms

Carlton Farms is a family-owned producer of all-natural, artisan fresh pork, smoked pork, and beef products. Since 1956 we have partnered with Pacific Northwest family farmers who raise animals according to time-honored methods—naturally and humanely. Animals are raised to our specifications, without hormones, animal proteins, or growth accelerants. We process products using hand techniques in our Willamette Valley facility, so when we say “handcrafted,” we mean it. We never use artificial flavors or chemicals while curing or aging our meats. Smoked products may be cured with salt and sweet brines, dry aged, and smoked over hardwood fires. Fresh pork is processed for the freshest delivery within 24 hours. And our premium beef is hand-trimmed, dry aged, and delivered with exquisite marbling and a velvety texture. Restaurants, food services, fine markets, and discriminating consumers have made Carlton Farms their choice for delicious, artisan products for more than five decades. From personalized customer relationships, to supporting community values and advancing appreciation of fine cuisine in the Pacific Northwest, we deliver the exceptional product quality and customer service you expect.
