Our farm standards

We’ve just posted our farm standards regarding animal care. We consider it a work in progress. It provides information for anyone who might want to buy from us, but more importantly any time you buy meat you should ask yourself these questions:

  • Where did the animal come from?
  • What did it eat?
  • What medications and vaccinations was it given?
  • How was it treated?
  • What was its quality of life?
  • Did it have access to the outdoors?

We’re not claiming to be purists or perfect. Even the meat we eat doesn’t meet our standards 100% of the time (that’s the meat we don’t raise), but it does give us something to shoot for.

Are there other questions you ask?
