Beef
Our beef is raised on grass, and hay. Allowed to roam in
the fields and pastures. The cows are bred so they calf in
Spring. The calves are weaned from their mothers in Fall,
and put back out in the fields, not a feedlot. They are
harvested between 16-24 months old. Their meat is tender
and flavorful.
At this time, we offer beef only as whole and split-side
orders. A whole Angus weighing between 1000-1200lbs
will yield 450lbs of freezer beef. A whole Dexter weighing
about 650lbs will yield 250lbs of freezer beef.

and Dexters, scroll to the bottom of the page.

Most beef orders will take up to 18 months to completely
fill. The reason for this is because we need to sell any
calves after weaning which we do not have an order to
finish. We do keep a few extra back a year, but please
don't rely on these, get your orders in now. We
understand how long this wait can be, but we think it is
worth it and so will you.
Average price...$1.50 per pound liveweight
Angus are moderate sized, cattle known for excellent beef
qualities. The cuts of meat will resemble, in size, the cuts
you find at a grocery store.
Dexter cattle are a rare British breed of cattle that are small
framed and roughly 60% the size of traditional cattle. This
smaller size makes them ideal for freezer beef. Steaks from
Dexters are smaller than typical grocery store beef.
