Frequently Asked Questions
Do the cows really eat grass their whole life?
Our cattle are grazing on green forage for the entire year. In summer, they eat native annuals and native perennials. In winter, they eat a planted pasture mix of winter annuals.
Where is the processing done?
The processing is done right on our ranch. Since the stress of the cow is one of the top factors of how meat will taste, we ensure that our cows endure as little stress as possible. Having the processing done on our ranch, so we don't have to transport the cows anywhere, cuts down on their stress significantly.
How do you weigh the shares, by the cow's weight or just the meat?
Weighing the cold carcus is 20% higher than what you would actually receive, so we weigh by just the packaged meat total.
Do you deliver?For the most part, we only deliver to the farmers' markets we attend (see them by clicking here). We will occasionally deliver on a case-by-case basis depending on type of delivery and schedule.
I see you offer chickens, are they from your ranch?
The all-natural, hormone free chickens we offer are from our neighbor Josh Koehn. Check out their website to find out about their chickens: http://www.cprmeats.com/cprmeats/Welcome.html
