Real stories of quality, service, and tradition
The team at Stratton’s made my first experience with my own animals a pleasure to deal with. I was extremely nervous about the whole situation as it was the first time I had ever raised pigs for meat and his team made quick and professional work of the entire situation. It was the deciding factor that makes me want to continue on with raising my own pork as an annual tradition. If you are looking for a true professional to come to the farm and process your animal you should look no further it was an awesome experience.

This was our first year with Strattons but we couldn’t have been happier with the overall turnout. We had two pigs processed and from start to finish the Strattons crew were kind, professional, and returned us product that exceeded our expectations. This type of service is so needed and we were grateful that they were there for us. Top notch quality and absolutely reasonable pricing for the product they deliver. Thank you for what you do!

This is the best deer processor I’ve ever used! The meat looks like jewelery when they’re done with it…..everything was cut and trimmed so neat and clean, vaccuum-packed and labeled in 1lb packages. Greg and his crew are great, they managed to process my deer within a day so i wouldn’t have to take a 4 hour drive to pick it up. First class butcher! Highly recommend!!
