OUR PRODUCTS
A Note on Pricing
Our Commitment
We raise mostly heritage breeds on a large, everything-but-the-label organic pasture, supplemented with certified organic feeds. Because we have to purchase birds and feed well in advance, we encourage you to pre-order meat by providing a discount for pre-ordering with deposit. We know it can be a sacrifice to buy food like we raise on our farm. But we farmers really aren't in the business of making money! No matter, WE ARE COMMITTED to making high quality meats as affordable as possible.
This Year
In 2022, feed costs rose 40%, and the cost of purchasing and processing animals were nearly doubled. Instead of selling animals, we worked to maximize use of the pasture, and we became adept at doing a lot of processing ourselves. Our prices increased less than 10%. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This year’s prices are based on the average USDA price for pasture raised meats for January 2023, or last year’s cost plus 3%, based on projected increases for '23. However, if our listed prices mean that we are selling at a loss, we will raise the price to cost.
Eggs
Chicken
These eggs come from chickens with a large open yard (it is winter...), and are not cleaned. They have a natural anti-bacterial coating that maintains freshness, and is removed with washing. Not washing also allows us to not have the expense of maintaining a licensed egg processing facility and provide you with the freshest eggs! (Price per doz)
$6.00
Duck
Duck eggs are 50% larger than chicken eggs, and provide high quality protein, lecithin and choline (which are good for your brain), anti-oxidants, 3 times the B12, and twice the iron and vitamin D. Duck eggs can sometimes be tolerated by those with dietary sensitivities to chicken eggs. (Price per half-doz)
$6.00Turkey
Every year, we hear from new customers that they and their guests agree that "this is the best turkey they ever had!"
Whole or Half
Our fresh, never-frozen turkeys will be bagged and ready for cooking two days before Thanksgiving! Weights range from 15-30 pounds; please approximate your desired weight and we’ll do our best to match it. If you want less than 15 pounds, we will sell halves or quarters. (( $7.25/lb whole bird with $90 deposit; $8.00/lb half bird with $50 deposit ))
Pork
Our pigs are purchased in early adolescence, and then rotated through the pasture! Their green diet is supplemented with organic feed - and treats from our table! We raise red wattle pigs; their meat is redder than "normal pork" and marbled ... it's a great beef alternative.
Bacon
It is hands-down the best bacon the Sherman family has ever eaten - reminds Anne of bacon from "when she was a little girl." Availble now from our 2022 harvest! (( packages are 1 lb )) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Contains Monosodium Glutamate, Sodium Erythorbate, Sodium Triphosphate, and Sodium Nitrite from the curing process
