We are here to provide a healthy and humane alternative to the factory farmed meats that are sold in every supermarket and deli around. Our meats come directly from local farmers, who we know. Our customers are informed and engaged when it comes to their food choices. We offer grass-fed meat, free range/pastured eggs, Non-GMO, organic, and gluten free products that you can feel good about eating. It is our mission to educate our customers about their food choices and to provide the highest quality products. When it comes to meat, forget the butcher, Know your farmer!
So why are we obsessed with grass fed?
Grass-fed beef generally comes from cattle that eat only grass and other foraged foods throughout their lives. Conventional beef cattle eat a diet that includes grains, such as corn, and even rejected CANDY! Anything to fatten them up fast. The difference in the diets of the cattle changes the nutrients and fats you get from eating the different types of beef. Our motto “you are what you eat… eats!!”
Grass-fed beef may have some heart-health benefits that other types of beef don't have. When compared with other types of beef, grass-fed beef may have:
Less total fat
More heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids
More conjugated linoleic acid, a type of fat that's thought to reduce heart disease and cancer risks
More antioxidant vitamins, such as vitamin E
