I don’t usually have these guys in stock but there are a couple left. Flank and hanger, my absolute favorite. I consumed all leftovers by myself. The treatment of these steaks was said (by my mother) to have wooed my father.

06/23/2022

I’m way late on the update but this carload of amateurs put in a solid day’s work and helped momma move a ton of beef twice. OG is now stocked with everything. Still offering easy contactless pickup and some limited deliveries.

05/26/2022

Memorial Day weather looks fine for grilling. Maybe Sunday too. Who can say? I have plenty of steaks and burgers and a couple briskets left!

04/28/2022

Fresh grass for next year’s beef. This has been the longest most colorful, bloomy spring I can remember. It may portend a long hot summer. Let’s take the cool days and green grass when we can, eh?

03/30/2022

Some of this some of that. The labor and the delivery. Five babies on the ground. Zero cuddlers among them. I lost an argument with the naughty one today but won over the rest with my charms and awesome jokes.

See only a trained, professional cattle farmer can spot the problem here. It took years for me to develop the deductive reasoning skills to see this cause and effect.

03/25/2022

Two vegans and a man with a broken back helped me move 1500 lbs of meat today. It’s done and everything is back in stock! Got home just in time to see 28 cows in the yard at my moms house so long day just got a little longer.

03/22/2022

There are a few of y’all who have inquired about prime rib roasts. I normally only get those cut in advance of Christmas but wondering if there people who’d like a prime rib for Easter. I’ll take some preorders for pickup after this week. Let me know if you’d like me to have one cut for you.

03/14/2022

All right it’s time to make way for the next batch! Everything in the freezers right now is 20% off til next Thursday the 24th!

02/07/2022

Friends and local freezer stuffers, our next graduating class will be available on the side in just about six weeks! If you’ve been thinking about a side of beef or it’s time to re-up please shoot me a message. There’s also plenty of steaks, roasts, and sausage blends still here at the farm available for pickup (or limited delivery).

01/10/2022

I heard grocery stores are out of beef? I have plenty and getting more this week. Roasts and bones as well to keep you warm when it's 27 degrees.

12/15/2021

I’m working to clear some freezers before Christmas…ground beef at $7/lb. Stew cubes at $6. Ribeyes and strips worthy of celebration. And a few large briskets. Please place your orders for pickup or I can delivery sometimes! Order form in comments. Pic from greener days here on the farm.

We’ve done a thing and added a few items to the product list. These little travelers are spectacular. $8 per pack. Shippable.

05/29/2021

If your Memorial Day weekend food plans have changed from a grilling situation to more of a crockpot situation, fear not! I have stew cubes and roasts still available for early spring’s last gasp.

This isn’t the greatest video but you get the picture. The sound this morning makes me feel like I’m in a wompwomp flashback scene on an old TV show.

This is what restocking day looks like. It was a big haul, and actually this isn’t all of it. Eliza Greenman took a couple hundred or so pounds to make some slim jim type things and some half-smokes with some pig parts. I’m taking suggestions for names for the slim jims. Slim Kim? Or maybe they won’t be slim. Maybe they will be kinda fat?

All this is to say, I’m really well stocked for the Country Market at Cellars tomorrow, Thursday May 13 from 4-7. Come by! Perhaps I’ll figure out how to tag these places and events in comments. But preorders are available through the website as always. Www.Oaklandgreen.com

And for clarification this photo is actually just a picture I took on the way back from the butcher last week. Back in the good old days of being able to get gas.

I am taking orders for my next batch of steers going to be processed at the end of this month. If anyone has considered a side of beef, right now is a great time! I'm happy to answer questions here or via private message - let me know!

03/30/2021

Presented in order of appearance. Fear not, #1 is being a lazy heifer in today’s sunshine. She even let me cuddle her a bit. #2 is a rambunctious bull calf who was born during yesterday’s downpour. And #3 is another heifer. All good on day one!

I guess some part of women's month means I have to toot my own horn a bit. I'm a member of the Board of the Loudoun Farm Bureau for a couple years now. We work to preserve farmland in Loudoun and connect farmers with decision makers who affect them. Chicken coop getting taxed?Hoop house assessed as a permanent structure? Call us up and together perhaps we can roll back chicken coop taxation and other silliness....or we can just commiserate about the lack of rain or how there's too much rain. Or how it's too hot or too cold...just farmer people talking about stuff...

I’m Sara Brown, 9th generation farmer at Oakland Green Farm near Lincoln VA. We raise and sell beef cattle. I got my first steer when I was 11 (12?) in 4H. A couple years later I got a heifer and kept her and as happens, I got a calf, and so on and so forth. Currently I host a herd of 23 breeding cows all of whom have been born and raised here.

We’ve implemented several conservation measures on the farm in terms of water protection and we’re planning to install additional forage options for them as well so as to lengthen the grazing season.

02/16/2021

All freezers are stocked! We’ve really upped the freezer game lately at OG. Help us shut down a few! Plenty of ground beef, delmonicos, strips, filets, all manner roasts, briskets. Limited stew cubes. Posting current price list and order form in comments. I even have some flanks and skirts.

Also available from farm and Greenman, salami! Bacon! Maple sausage! Some weird duck sausage! It’s amazing! I will paste in her order form below as well.

Pay no mind to the freezer with the ratchet strap. It’s of no consequence.

01/28/2021

If your quarantine lunch rotation doesn’t look as good as mine, we should talk. I have extra burger patties and this right here has been a lifesaver of late. Also pictured, Naked Bacon by Hogtree farm.

Some limited quantities of other cuts available too! And pork ribs and new salamis and fresh sausage. Guys, the meat is IN. That’s what I said.

Dummy being dumb. She has been in there a while. Generally I feel that if she got in, she can get out. I fear this like when Winnie the Pooh went to Rabbit’s house and ate hunny and then couldn’t fit out the hole.

Beef Orders

Friends the beef is in again! If you need a restock on anything please me know via this form. I’m already out of flanks, as does happen, but plenty of ground, roasts, and steaks. I did get rib roasts this go-round, and will not process again before Christmas so if you wanted one for the holidays go ahead and be ahead of schedule!

Please place orders on this google form (those of you who have, I got it, and will be fulfilling and communicating this weekend). https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1qMiB2DbcxdgM_TLR6uiDKa1zN2PpRi3rfazRGVI-obg/edit#responses

Catoctin Creek visits Oakland Green Farm and Sara Brown

I took some good friends on a fun farm tour last week in the sweltering summer morning heat. Many of you know we've been feeding mash from Catoctin Creek for nigh on a decade. Loudoun is lucky to have Scott and Becky running their business here. These are some hard working folks right here and the love shines through in the h***h.

Beef Orders

Hi Meateaters! Beef is coming in next week and several of you have asked to place orders. I created this form to try to keep myself organized. If you're in need of some beef for your freezer, let me know at the link below!

Place your order for beef through this form and we will be in touch with your total when it's ready for driveway pickup at the farm. Thank you!

07/11/2020

We're about to be back in the beef. Shortly I'll be sending along a form to aid in ordering beef for your freezer. Hope everyone is keeping well!

06/11/2020

As if there wasn't enough confusion in the world....sorry for those who think we're getting into the used car business. Not selling a Honda civic here or anywhere in the country. We got hacked and I believe we're cleaned up now, but apologies for any confusion on this front.

06/02/2020

Ok friends - we're in the last month before re-stocking freezers. I know many of you have been waiting patiently. And several people have reached out inquiring about sides of beef. I have a couple left available for next month processing. Please PM me to inquire or to get me a deposit and get your beef supply reserved!

03/21/2020

Ok wow - so lots of people want ground beef and so if I have not confirmed with you, I need to deal out what I have and see what I have left. I will post inventory at end of day. I'm delivering immediate area today then going on LoCo Tour 2020 tomorrow for those not in Lincoln.

Soon to come will be tips and tricks for cuts of beef that are not ground beef. Maybe a video of a rare roast eye round sliced super thin on sammy.

Thanks, friends - I think this is what it's all about.

03/19/2020

Tomorrow I'll be braving the off-farm wilds to retrieve beef from the butcher. I'll have my freezers restocked by evening and will happily make deliveries of ground beef (or steaks or sausages or whatever!) around the county. Grounds is $6 and I'll have a lot. PM me or call 540-338-7628 if you're interested in me dropping frozen meat off on your porch in a cooler. No personal contact required.

OGF is excited to be setting up at the Loudoun Grown Expo this weekend! I'll be there all day with a cute little freezer stocked with high quality beef from the farm. I'll be bringing some new products this go-round, including some of that amazing Spanish style dry chorizo, which is a combo effort between my beef and some OG woodland pork who were tended to in their lifetimes by Greenman. Y'all come on down to the Tabernacle - looks like a beautiful wintery day will be had! The perfect kind of day to buy frozen beef and not worry about leaving it in the car if you're not going straight home!

02/25/2020

Friends! It's that time again to stock up on sides or quarters of beef. I have a couple available before the end of March. If you've got a full freezer you've got plenty of time to eat some space in it for some delicious beef!

Rib Roasts for the holiday table. Comes complete with instructions and philosophical musings on adaptations. Some cut the meat off the bone before roasting, tying the meat back onto the bone. I have never found it to be too difficult to perform that task after the cook, but I'm open.

HogTree Spanish Style Chorizo! Dry-Cured

And so the season of eating and drinking and celebrating the wonder of this world is upon us. If, for you, that includes a special meal around a stunning rib roast, I've got a few that will make your holiday even more spectacular. Detailed instructions are always available for those who feel uncomfortable. You can come pick up at the farm or we can arrange a delivery or meat-up location.

Many other cuts of beef available as well - stew cuts for the days of NOT really cooking, and stacks of burger patties that are on the table in 20 minutes since those children seem to need to be fed every single day.

And still for a limited time some of those fab chorizo collaboration sausages with Greenman's pigs that grew up in the woods here at OGF. Those also available for pickup or can be ordered online and shipped!

This Spanish-style chorizo (chorizo de Pamplona) is a half pork/half beef collaboration between HogTree and Oakland Green Farm. This traditionally cured chorizo is the favorite food of onlookers at "The Running of the Bulls." Made with pimenton, a smoked paprika from Spain, this chorizo is simply fa...

A long day but freezers restocked! Just over a ton stuffed in there. And so happy to be back on the menu at .burger!

10/15/2019

It's that week! Making way..all the meat on site is at least 20% off, through the end of Thursday. I can do some deliveries in the immediate neighborhood but for those who want to shop, let's make a date!
