We raise & process

Your animal is raised on pasture and processed by our local butchers on your custom cut sheet.

Pick up at the butcher shop & enjoy

Pay your remaining balance by hanging weight, then pick up your packaged, frozen meat directly from the butcher shop. We don’t store meat on the farm, so a ready freezer is key before pickup day.
