Meat: We buy meat from producers who give priority to a high quality of life for the animal. For example, your 100% grassfed beef may not be certified organic, but it is raised on lush beautiful pasture. We won’t sell you Certified Organic meat just because it is Certified Organic. We choose meat that we would and do feed to our own family.

• Abiding Acres Farm – animals are raised naturally without GMOs, antibiotics and growth hormones. Grass-fed.
• Gitto Farm and Kitchen – grass-fed
• Golden Bear Farm – never feed CORN, SOY, GMO’s, antibiotics, hormones or any processed foods.
• Little Heathens Pasture – regenerative farmers- rotationally grazing livestock, and bolstering immune systems with a nutritious variety of forages. We supplement with quality minerals and herbs to keep our animals thriving and avoid other interventions. Our lambs are whole grassfed lambs. Winter hay is supplemented in the last 3-4 weeks of gestation for the heavily pregnant ewes, providing them with extra needed calories in the way of black oil sunflower seed, and non-gmo or organic grain (barley, oats or wheat).
• Rushing Waters – wild caught salmon patties
• Alden Hills –Moved to fresh pasture daily. OG
• Stock Family Farm – Our chickens are raised outdoors and moved daily to new pasture. They are fed a blend of Organic grains, consume fresh grass, and forage for insects.
