FAQ

We've provided a list of the ranch questions we get asked most to hopefully get you the information you need sooner. If your question isn't answered here, feel free to shoot us a message. We'll get back to you as soon as we can.

The new label that best describes our practices is “beyond organic” because we far exceed the USDA’s welfare and feed standards for organic livestock. All of our animals constantly have access to fresh natural forage that is appropriate for their specific diet (ex. forest for pigs, pasture/bugs for chickens, grass/hay for cows) that we never spray with pesticides, herbicides, or chemically fertilize. We feed our cattle only grass, never grain, and our omnivores (pigs and chickens) are supplemented with GMO-free feed that is milled locally in order to keep a balanced omnivorous diet. We never use any antibiotics or hormones on our animals at any time. Read more about our farm practices.

We always feed our animals what is best for their unique digestive systems. Cows are ruminant animals and have a series of four stomachs that are built for grass and grass alone — so that's what we feed them. Pigs, laying hens, and meat chickens are all omnivores, which means they need a balance of vegetables and protein. We supply this through unlimited fresh grass (vegetables), bugs (protein) and a balanced GMO-free feed offered to them free-choice (made of more plants and protein). Read more about how we raise our animals.

We now offer next-day local delivery within a 25-30 mile radius of our sister property, Grassroots Larder.

All our our orders are packed in cardboard boxes and delivered frozen or slightly thawed in a refrigerated van.

You bet! We’re actually one of the leaders in the current meat-shipping scene for fully recyclable boxes and packing materials. No styrofoam or weird ‘recycling’ instructions here - you get a cardboard box. Really, that’s it.

Once you’ve ordered and your card has been run, we assume you want that world-changing protein as fast as possible. To make this happen for all our customers with no time-consuming hiccups, all sales are final.
