To Try Lard - Civil War Farm Life
“Without hogs, farming could not go on” is a quote from the Cottage Economy first published in 1821. A large reason this was true is because of one word - lard. In this episode, Felicia and Jeremy from History Acres Farm talk with Will about what lard is, why was it so important on a 19th century farm, and the process of how to render, melt or try the lard.
