ABOUT OUR BEEF:
All of our beef is sold by the whole, half or quarter directly to customers in the fall.  Our meats are organically grown using only sustainable practices.  Our animals are all natural and contain no antibiotics, hormones or steroids. All of our meat is grown and finished on the farm. ·

WITH YOUR ORDER:
You will get approximately 1/3 roasts, 1/3 steaks, and 1/3 hamburger. 

Please call for availability as early in the season as you can.  All of our beef sells out.

OUR PROCESS:
All of our meat is cut by a professional butcher to your specifications.  The meat is hung for up to two weeks, vacuum sealed and flash frozen to assure the highest quality.  Packaging is done to accommodate your family size.  Some of our customers split a half between two or more households.

You will need a stand-alone freezer for your beef.

Health benefits of grass-fed beef:

• Grass-fed beef is lower in fat and calories than grain-fed beef and has less fat per serving than commercially raised chicken. 
  
• Grass-fed beef has three times more omega-3 fatty acids than commercial raised beef.  These ‘good fats’ have been shown to prevent cancer and heart attacks and are an essential nutrient for all the bodies’ functions. 
  
• Grass-fed beef is the highest known source of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA).  CLA is another ‘good fat’ that is a remarkable defense against all types of cancer.
  
• Grass-fed beef is very high in vitamin E.  Vitamin E prevents heart disease and cancer and may have some anti-aging effects associated with it.  Most Americans are deficient in Vitamin E. 
  
• Grass-fed beef has more Vitamin A and Beta-carotene then conventionally raised beef.
  
• Finally, grass-fed beef is free of Mad Cow Disease.
