Bulk beef allows us to develop responsible plans for our herd to implement truly regenerative and rotational grazing practices. This way we improve soil health and encourage biodiversity. Selling cows means the WHOLE COW is honored and utilized in nourishing families. More control in your hands means you're not relying on grocery stores for your meat supply during food shortages. You'll have greater control over the quality of your food knowing exactly where it comes from.

Buying in bulk is one of the best ways to protect yourself from fluctuating beef inventory and inflating prices at the grocery stores. You also ensure you have a supply of nutritious and delicious beef on hand for better meal planning or last-minute meals. You will also get to experience alternative cuts of beef.
Your beef will arrive vacuum-sealed and will stay fresh in your freezer for one year. Just so you know... we've eaten beef frozen longer than a year and it was still delicious :)

The right size for a family or couple. • Half Share (200-240 pounds) - Perfect for larger families or families that cook often. • Whole Beef Share (400-450 pounds) - Huge family, multiple hungry teenagers, or love to entertain? This is for you! Each share is slightly different, but on average, you can expect 60-65% assorted beef cuts and 35-40% ground beef.

When you make a deposit, you are reserving that share of the animal. We then make an appointment with our USDA processor, deliver the reserved animal for processing, have the beef dry-ages for 14 days and return to the processor to pick up your beef. We then store your beef in our freezers as we prepare to deliver n to your door. We only have so many cattle to offer our valued customers, so we need to assure all our steers reach one of our valued customers in a timely fashion. Customers do not buy their beef at the same time, so we only process an animal when a request is made to buy our beef.
Your beef will be dry-aged for 14 days to increase tenderness and flavor. We have found this is the optimal time for our grass-fed beef. It's worth the wait!
