Bulk Beef & Processing

Grass-fed beef is leaner and more nutrient dense than grain-fed beef.

Higher in antioxidants, omega 3's, vitamins, and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) which has been tied to improved immunity and anti-inflammation benefits.

Lower in total fat, saturated fats, and cholesterol.

We refuse to use injections in our cattle such as antibiotics or hormones. We believe that providing a natural diet and a non-cruel/stress free environment is the best thing for our cattle, and the best thing for our families.

Beef Processing

*Bulk beef currently not available to ship. Local pick-up only.

The fee is reduced proportionally for half/quarter.
