FAQ

We have nothing to hide here.

 

Do you offer custom butchering?

Yes but only on our ½ cow package. Simply add the ½ cow package to your cart and proceed through the checkout and one of our family members will get in touch within 48 hours to discuss what cuts you want, and set-up your payment plan.

We work closely with all custom butchering orders to make sure you get the cuts that you want.

Do you use antibiotics or hormones on the cattle?

Our animals are never implanted with growth hormones. We do use antibiotics on sick animals as it would be inhumane to let animals suffer from sickness. That being said, due to our high standards, we have very few animals get sick on the farm. These animals don’t get processed into meat until long after the recommended antibiotic withdrawal time.

Why are the quarter cow and half cow packages only available seasonally?

Unlike grocery stores beef which is fattened quickly in a feedlot and sold, our beef is slow grown. Our cattle stays on the ranch it’s entire life and is slowly brought up to a butchering weight of 1,000 lbs giving them lots of time to graze on fresh grass in the Spring and Summer seasons. This takes about 6-8 months longer than the traditional, grocery way of raising cattle which is why we only harvest in the Fall.

We do offer beef year round but it is varied and limited. Email us for details or to get on our waitlist!

What makes your beef different?

Our beef is 100% grass fed beef. They are grass fed from the time they are born till they go to the butcher. This creates a better tasting product! We also care for our animals as if they are family. Sometimes it is hard for us to see the cattle go but we believe that we took great care of them and that it is now their turn to nourish and take great care of us and our customers. See the “Our Ranch” page to learn more about our unique way of raising cattle.
