Free-roaming, foraging animals like ours have exercised their muscles often (and we add no liquid saline injections!), so the meat is redder, leaner, and more flavorful than a traditional meat cut. Please take time to learn the optimum ways to cook this healthy, special meat. There are many good guides on the internet – search for “grass fed” and “pastured” advice and recipes.
**Note: there’s an “availability” column that isn’t visible from a phone view – you’ll have to look from a computer, or email us about what’s available.
Grass-fed/Grass-finished Beef
Our Jersey steers are raised 100% on pasture and fully grass-finished – a 2+ year process. Our animals are raised without herbicides, pesticides, hormones, or antibiotics and the meat is lean, healthy and flavorful – best cooked slowly (crock pot, instant pot, sous vide, braised) or quickly (pan seared, rare). The steers are butchered and dry-aged for 21 days by a USDA butcher, frozen on site, and sold directly by the farmer to the consumer. We encourage customers to learn to eat all parts of the animal, so check out the whole price list!
We also provide custom-exempt beef by the 1/4 or 1/2 share, if you have the freezer space. You can learn more about meat shares HERE

Pastured Pork
Our Tamworth and Large Black pigs are heritage breeds that are hardy, healthy, and excellent at foraging. They are a classic “slow food”, taking almost 18 months to mature, making them leaner and more flavorful than a pig kept in a small pen and fed to capacity. Our animals are raised without herbicides, pesticides, hormones, or antibiotics and the meat is lean, healthy, and flavorful – best cooked gently or quickly. The pigs are butchered by a USDA butcher, frozen on site, and sold directly by the farmer to the consumer. We encourage customers to learn to eat all parts of the animal, so check out the whole price list as it comes available!

Pasture-raised and finished Goat
Although they are raised 100% on pasture, it would be wrong to call our goat meat “grass fed” because goats love all kinds of herbage – some of their favorites are Himalayan blackberry leaves and young Canadian thistle! They all are raised for 4-6 months nursing their mothers before weaning and have plentiful, healthy pasture to grow on! The meat goats are a mix of breeds (especially Boer, plus some dairy bucks – mainly Nubian and Lamancha). They are neutered as kids (so NOT smelly!) and raised without herbicides, pesticides, hormones, or antibiotics. They are butchered by a USDA butcher, and the meat is frozen on site and sold directly by the farmer to the consumer. Yes, you can buy cheaper goat, but do you know what it has lived on?

Pastured Lamb
Grass fed lamb is mild, without any of the “mutton” flavor you may imagine. The sheep – mainly Texel or Icelandic breeds – are raised fully outdoors on pasture without herbicides, pesticides, hormones, or antibiotics. They are butchered by a USDA butcher, and the meat is frozen on site and sold directly by the farmer to the consumer.
The current butchering is of hoggets (sheep between 1-2 years) and it’s lovely stuff – still tender and mild flavored, but bigger cuts for things like the chops and shanks.

Pastured Poultry – we are taking a break from raising poultry for sale – sorry
We employ a local small-scale poultry processor to butcher our pasture-raised, wide-roaming birds 3-4 times a year; we age birds for 5 days in the refrigerator before freezing. We can add in the organ meats (heart, liver, gizzard, neck and feet) upon request. Let us know if you specifically want an older (=more flavorful) bird for bone broth, coq au vin, or another slow-cooked recipe. If you like fresh birds, get on our email list to be notified in the windows when we have them just back from the butcher.
