Turn your next party into a pig roast.

Lorah’s Pig Roasting & Farm Market, at 4739 Cypress Drive in Walnutport, raises farm fresh chickens and pigs.

The business will host an open house from 9 a.m.-2 p.m. April 12.

Owner Ed Lorah said the business has been offering an open house for the last 15 to 20 years.

“It’s to let the people know we’re in the catering business,” he said. “They can come in and sample, we get to book contracts, get our name out, get jobs. People like to taste the foods.”

Also on April 12, Lorah said they will hold garden tractor pulls.

“They can bring their tractors out,” he said. “We’ve been doing tractor pulls since 2004.”

Also of note, Lorah said that from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. the first Saturday of each month customers can choose from pork or chicken platters to go. They can purchase either a roasted half-chicken with a baked potato and coleslaw, or a roasted pulled pork sandwich with a baked potato and coleslaw. Dinners are usually ready by 10 a.m.

“In catering we bring the whole pig out for everybody to see; we bring the pig precooked, they get to see the pig,” he said. “That’s what makes our business.”

Lorah said they also offer quarter beef and whole pigs for the freezer, and noted they farm raise the animals there.

The Lorah family farm has been at its current location since 1910, and is currently being farmed by its fourth generation.

Lorah said that he and his brother Tim Lorah, along with Ed’s wife Jennifer, and family established the business in 1998. He said they’ve been catering since 1998-1999.

“We built it ourselves, we learned,” he said. “We have a great crew of family and friends that help with catering and the meat market.”

Lorah said they opened the meat market in 2004, and it’s known for fresh products.

“We do people to people to people service,” he said. “You’re not a number when you walk through the door. They (customers) all know me and my family.”

Lorah said prices are current on their website.

“We realize everything went up; we’re trying to hold our prices fair,” he said. “I consider our customers our family.”
