I'm going to start this one with please like, share, comment and follow our page. All the rage right now is about USA local beef. I've been asked about beef more times this week then the whole rest of the year combined. Those of us in the industry know that beef is imported into the country. But now that it's hit the media and all the influencers holy smokes. I did a quick search and we've been importing beef since 1960 that's as far back as the chart I found goes. So for at least 66 years a percentage of beef in the stores is imported. I love when agriculture things hit the news. I can talk about it daily but when the news has it, it holds more weight. We welcome everyone to our farm and we will grow to meet the demand. You have to be patient with us. We can't blindly produce, because we sell everything that we raise in our farm store. Using sales data and projected growth as our guide. We for sure can't predict when things go crazy but we willing and able to grow. Those that blindly produce and direct market are out of business or they sell on the commodity market. I don't want to scare you away, we have a great supply and work hard every day to make sure we do. It's just when things go crazy, some products do go out of stock, more is coming and it won't be out long. Here a tip for you, if your just looking for local beef and don't care how it's raised you can go to the livestock auctions and buy a fat beef. You just have to have a trailer and a processing date to do so. Be the highest bidder and you have a whole beef. Now if you care about how it's raised and are looking for a local farm we are here for you. We raise pasture raised chicken and duck eggs, chicken, turkey, pork and 100% grass finished beef. Our farm store is located at 1931 Kropp road, Millstadt, Illinois. Our on farm store hours are every Tuesday and Thursday 1pm to 5:30pm and every Saturday 9am to 3pm. Let's all get back to buying local food raised in our local communities in our great county. I'm with you I don't want to eat imported food either. Clean, nutrient dense, non gmo, pasture raised food is what I want for my family and yours.
