Why Local Beef?

Breadcrumb Navigation

We believe that consumers should know where their food comes from. Many folks would be surprised to learn that the majority of beef today is trucked several hundred miles by the time it gets to their supermarket.

How would you like your beef to be raised just minutes away at a farm owned and operated by your local farmer? We practice low-stress handling techniques with our animals and are BQA (Beef Quality Assurance) certified. Which means we are trained to raise quality beef for our customers with animal well-being our top priority.

Our local beef starts with black Angus and Hereford cows raised right here on our family farm. Our steers spend their whole life on grass pastures and never see a feed lot. We feed little grain, where 95 percent of our cows’ diet is just grass and other forages grown on the pasture. Our beef is processed at a NCDA (North Carolina Department of Agriculture) inspected facility and is dry aged for 14 days.

Our customers have the option to buy a whole beef or halves and quarters. A whole steer usually dresses around 400 pounds of various beef cuts, such as steaks, roasts and ground beef. If you have any questions about purchasing our beef, please click on the menu icon for our contact information.
