Our animals are raised outdoors on pasture with diverse forage to eat. They get freedom, sunlight, fresh air and shelter every single day.

Our cattle are pasture raised and we make this distinction on purpose. Grass fed means an animal has eaten grass only for their whole life. This means they can be raised in a muddy feed lot, fed hay and be called grass fed. Here our cows are rotated thru diverse pastures. During the short winter we do feed hay and a molasses supplement.

Our birds are raised outside, on pastures with plenty of room to roam. They are kept in protective shelters that are moved daily in order to keep them on fresh ground; we call it changing the bed sheets. They are fed a high quality no soy, non-GMO feed and get to snack on any bugs or grasses they find during the day.

They are encouraged to do what chickens do and in return you get a better product!

Our chicken if processed here on the ranch under PL 90-492. It can be picked up fresh on PICKUP DAYS and you can see our processing setup! Join our email list or follow us on social media to get in the loop!

A whole beef starts at about 600-650 lbs hanging weight, yielding around 400-450 lbs of packaged meat.

A half beef starts at about 300-350 lbs hanging weight, yielding around 200-225 lbs of packaged meat.

A quarter beef starts at about 130-150 lbs hanging weight, with around 100 lbs of packaged meat.

Our beef is processed at a local USDA inspected facility called Local Cuts. It comes to you in boxes, frozen and vacuum sealed. They are as transparent as we are. Video tours of their facility can be found on YouTube.

From a half side of beef, you’ll typically get around 70 lbs of steak cuts, depending on how thick you like them cut—our butcher recommends 1.25".

The meat yield typically divides into roughly 30% steaks, 40% ground beef, and 30% roasts. This can vary by animal and how a cut sheet is filled out.
