Our Beef
We vaccinate our cows with Bovishield Gold and our calves with Enforce 3. These vaccines ensure overall herd health and they are both accepted by both the Beef Cares and the GAP4 Programs we’re certified by.
We do not administer mRNA Vaccines to our cattle and we have no intentions of doing so in the future.
Our beef is 100% GMO, preservative, and antibiotic free.
Our herd is crossbred with lines of Angus, SimAngus, and Brahmas. We carefully choose between the lines of all of these breeds health and hardiness of our herd, while also prioritizing the taste and texture of the beef we produce.
Our meat animals are processed in Jefferson, Georgia at a family-owned, USDA-inspected facility called Potts Meats. This is the only traveling our cows ever do, and the trip is kept very short. This prioritizes the health and comfort of the cows while also supporting another local agricultural business.
Our cows are Grass-fed, and Grain-finished. This means that they have free access to high-quality grass for their entire lives. For a few weeks before processing, they are given the option to eat high-quality, nutrient-dense grains as well. This improves the marbling and the flavor of the meat, while never compromising on the health or comfort of the cattle.
Our cows never see a feedlot. They only ever live on our farm.

We ship ground orders every Wednesday. Shipping later in the week can lead to delays at distribution centers over the weekend, which may spoil your shipment.
Your order will arrive in a cardboard box, lined with thermal panels and dry ice at the bottom to keep the food at a safe temperature while in transit. Leave the dry ice untouched in the box, and it will quickly evaporate on its own.
Please make sure someone is home during the estimated delivery date/time. These are perishable items and can go bad if left out in the elements for an extended period of time.
Each item (if refrigeration is required) are flash frozen and individually packaged in vacuum sealed bags for easy and quick defrosting.
The cuts of meat should still be cold to the touch. While some may still be frozen, thinner or smaller cuts may have started to defrost. Defrosted cuts should still be clearly cold to the touch and look appealing.
If you notice liquid at the bottom of the package, don’t be alarmed. This liquid is a natural and harmless mixture of water and protein from the meat.
