Beef Suet Tallow – Dry‑Rendered, Triple‑Filtered, Maker‑Grade Purity

Handcrafted on our sixth‑generation Wisconsin farm, our premium leaf‑fat beef tallow is dry rendered, triple filtered, and perfectly prepared for skincare, soapmaking, candles, leather care, and a wide range of DIY applications. This is the same tallow you have come to know and love in our handmade products, now available for you to use as an ingredient in your own creations.

Pure, Clean, and Virtually Odorless
We render our tallow low and slow using the traditional dry‑rendering method—never water‑rendered, never bleached, never deodorized, and never blended with additives. The result is a smooth, creamy, virtually odorless tallow with a consistent texture ideal for balms, salves, soaps, and other handcrafted goods.

Crafted From Leaf Fat Only
Our tallow is made exclusively from leaf fat, the highest‑quality suet from the cattle we raise ourselves with care and stewardship. This produces a cleaner, lighter tallow that melts beautifully, absorbs well, and performs reliably across all formulations.

Perfect for Makers & Homesteaders

This farm‑crafted tallow is a favorite for:
Skincare formulations
Whipped tallow balms
Soapmaking
Candles
Leather conditioning
Salves, ointments & herbal infusions
General DIY projects

Available Sizes
30 oz tub
64 oz tub

Small‑batch rendered. Triple filtered. Always clean, always simple, always dependable. Recommended to use within 12 months, but storage in a freezer can extended this shelf life. Always keep in a cool, dry location.

This tallow is not intended for food use.

🌿 Clean Living Swap #9: Clean up the Harsh Disinfectants — Choose Hydrogen Peroxide Instead

This month’s swap is all about something most of us use every single day: surface disinfectants.

Many conventional cleaners rely on strong, microbe‑disrupting chemicals that don’t just wipe out harmful germs — they wipe out everything, including the beneficial microbes that help support a healthy immune system.

If you’ve ever sprayed a cleaner and felt your eyes burn, your throat tighten, or your skin get irritated, that’s your body telling you those chemicals are doing more than just cleaning your counters.

So here’s the swap we’ve made in our home:

Swap harsh disinfectants for simple 3% hydrogen peroxide.

Hydrogen peroxide is a powerful, science‑backed disinfectant that kills bacteria, viruses, and mold — but without the harsh residues or endocrine‑disrupting additives found in many conventional cleaners.

It breaks down into water and oxygen, which means:

• No lingering chemical film
• No synthetic fragrances
• No respiratory irritation
• No disruption to your natural microbial balance

And yes — it still works.
You just spray it on the surface and let it sit for a few minutes so it can do its job.

Why we made this swap:

• We wanted fewer harsh chemicals in the air our family breathes
• We wanted a disinfectant that’s safe for little hands to touch
• We wanted something effective without the immune‑disrupting chemicals
• We wanted a cleaner that aligns with our whole‑ingredient, low‑toxin lifestyle

Hydrogen peroxide checks every box and as a bonus is a fraction of the cost of chemical cleaners at about $1/quart.

Small swaps like this add up. They make your home feel cleaner, calmer, and safer — without sacrificing effectiveness.

The dream of Barn 1912 wouldn’t have been possible without the Broedlow Farms foundation, 150 years in the making.

Clean Living Swap #8

Swapping boxed meals for whole‑ingredient recipes doesn’t have to be complicated—this four‑ingredient mac n’ cheese proves it. It’s faster than a grocery run, tastes better than anything neon‑orange, and keeps your kitchen stocked with real food you feel good about serving.

Boxed mac n’ cheese is convenient, but it comes with preservatives, dyes, and powdered “cheese” that doesn’t resemble the real thing. Choosing whole‑ingredient swaps like this one gives you:

• Cleaner ingredients — nothing you can’t pronounce, nothing you wouldn’t cook with anyway.
• Better flavor — real cheese, real cream, real noodles.
• Faster prep — this recipe comes together in the same amount of time as the boxed version.
• Budget control — pantry staples stretch further than single‑use boxed meals.

The 4‑ingredient mac n’ cheese

• Elbow noodles — 16 oz
• Evaporated milk or heavy cream — 1 can (12 oz) or 1 cup
• Sharp cheddar — 2 cups shredded
• Salt — 1 tsp

Cook your noodles, drain, then stir in the evaporated milk or cream, cheddar, and salt over low heat until everything melts into a silky sauce. That’s it. No packets, no mystery powder, no extra steps.

Why this recipe works

• Whole ingredients = whole flavor. Sharp cheddar gives you richness Kraft can’t touch.
• Evaporated milk or cream makes it foolproof. No roux, no clumping, no babysitting.
• Kid‑approved and adult‑approved. It tastes like comfort food, not a compromise.
• Pantry‑friendly. Everything stores well, making it just as convenient as the boxed stuff.

Swaps like this show that “clean living” doesn’t mean complicated living. It’s about choosing simple, real ingredients that fit your lifestyle. When you can replace a boxed meal with something this easy—and this good—it becomes second nature to reach for whole foods first.

Clean Living Swap #6: Ditch the Seed‑Oil Coffee Creamers

One of the small but mighty swaps we made in our home was trading out seed‑oil based coffee creamers for real dairy — Natural Bliss real milk & cream or just plain heavy whipping cream.

I’m not a big coffee drinker, but my husband is, and this tiny change made his morning cup so much healthier.

Why we made the switch:
• Most flavored creamers are built on seed oils, gums, and fillers
• Real dairy gives you simple, whole ingredients
• Better fats, better flavor, better for your body
• It’s a swap you feel immediately — richer taste, no oily after‑feel

What we use now:
• Natural Bliss real milk & cream
• Or a splash of heavy whipping cream when we want it extra smooth

It’s not about perfection — just choosing ingredients that are closer to the way nature made them. And your morning coffee is an easy place to start.

If you’ve made the swap away from oil-based creamers, what do you add to your coffee now?
