SUSTAINABILITY

Based outside of Des Moines, Iowa, La Quercia (pronounced La Kwair-cha) was founded by Herb and Kathy Eckhouse in 2005. Today we are one of the leading producers of artisan American cured meats prioritizing sustainability in all aspects of our business. La Quercia meats are made from non-confinement pork raised humanely without antibiotics.
