Frequently Asked Questions
Do you give your beef antibiotics or steroids?
We do not use antibiotics or steroids in our farm-to-table beef. If an animal were to require antibiotics to sustain life they would immediately be removed from our beef program!
Are your animals "grass-fed"?
All our cattle are something we title as "pasture-raised". Yes--they remain on open pasture for the entirety of their lives grazing on native grasses. They have constant access to fresh pasture and spring fed reservoirs.
What makes our pasture-raised beef unique is the "light-grain finish". The cattle remain out on pasture while also receiving a small amount of locally grown barley. Each morning we bring them their barley treat, you should see their excitement when they hear our buckets clanging. This finishing method has been passed down in our family for 5 generations and is truly what sets us apart!
How do you keep the meat frozen during shipping?
We utilize dry ice in all our shipments to ensure they arrive at your door frozen! In addition to this we use highly rated eco-friendly liners and insulated bags to extend the life of the freeze!

How much freezer space do I need?

How long will the beef last frozen?
Beef can last in the freezer for years! Just last week we cooked up a steak from 9 years ago as an experiment, it was fantastic. We couldn't taste a difference! We flash freeze and vacuum seal all our beef products to ensure freshness.
