Storage: You will need close to 10 cubic feet of freezer space for a half beef. For reference, a normal kitchen freezer is about 5-6 cubic feet (less if you have an ice maker).  We recommend getting a deep freezer that does not automatically defrost, as this feature can shorten the overall shelf-life of the beef.

How to pay: You put a 25% deposit down here today and the remaining balance will be charged to your card right before we ship the product. We will contact you via email to let you know about 2 weeks before your beef is going to ship.

When do I get my beef? Delivery usually takes approximately 8 weeks from the time of deposit. The longer lead times are dependent on when the animals are ready to harvest. We will be in touch with an estimated date of delivery.

Refund Policy

All deposits are non-refundable. It’s important to understand that by reserving your share of our herd, your deposit is used to plan the buying, raising, and processing of your cow for you. We appreciate your understanding and deposits can be transferred to another person if needed. Thank you for trusting us to raise your beef.

Note: Pricing is based upon 215 lbs. packaged beef. This may vary depending upon the size of each cow. Often you will see lower prices per pound advertised. They are usually referring to hanging weight, not packaged weight As a general rule, cattle will have an average dressing percentage of 53-63-percent, so the low cost you see per pound may almost double by the time it is packaged. Especially if you have boneless cuts.
