OUR PROCESS

Raising the Cattle

We start by purchasing young feeder calves from trusted local farmers. Our cattle are raised on a balanced diet that begins with mostly hay and a touch of grain. Over 9–10 months, we gradually increase the grain and supplement with protein pellets and minerals to ensure healthy growth and flavorful, well-marbled beef.

Processing & Butchering

Once the cattle are ready, we take them to our local butcher. The beef is hung for 10 days to enhance tenderness and flavor. About two weeks after drop-off, the butcher will contact you to take your custom cut order. If it’s your first time, don’t worry—they’ll walk you through the options and help you decide what works best for your household.

Pickup & Payment

After processing, we pick up all the orders and bring them back to the farm. We’ll reach out to schedule a pickup time that works for you. When you arrive, you’ll pay the remaining balance—based on the hanging weight of your beef plus processing costs,minus your deposit.
