Whitey Ford is looking mighty tasty, don’t you think?
We have 3 whole steers that have not been spoken for yet! They are due to be butchered the 27th of this month, but if we don’t find takers for them we will (very sadly) have to take them to the sale barn.
Just seems like such a waste of tasty, lovingly raised, antibiotic-free beef. And no added hormones, either. (Ahem. Not allowed to say hormone-free, because of course being mammals they have naturally occuring hormones, blah blah blah.)
So if you’re interested, please email

And I hate to say it, but Christmas is just around the corner. Last year we had a couple who purchased a quarter for each of their grown children as a Christmas gift. Which I thought was a really swell idea. Meat, the gift that keeps on giving!
Okay, end of sales pitch 🙂
how much per pound? and where do you live??
Yes, what are the rates? And can you ship to Southern Wisconsin?
Quarters (split halves) are $1.74 per pound, hanging weight. You pay the locker separately for the processing. Eighths are $3.65 per pound packaged weight which includes processing.Unfortunately we cannot ship to other states because we are state of Iowa inspected but not USDA inspected.
We currently have two pigs that will be ready at the locker plant this thursday. Lots of pork, but with 6 eating out of the freezer, it won’t last long.Hard to beat fresh meat, especially whern you know where it comes from.Do you ever advertise in the local paper or have the locker plant buy them from you? Ours will buy our excess and sell for us.
anon – Our locker will sell for us, but only if we’ll take market price. To me it wouldn’t be fair to have some people getting our all natural meat at a lower price. We are licensed to sell retail, and we’re going to do as much of that as we can, but we can’t fit 3 whole steers in the 2 freezers we have 🙂 So whatever doesn’t sell, and whatever we can’t fit in our freezer, unfortunately goes to the sale barn.
