Why Heritage Breeds?

Vetted by thousands of years of gastronomy
Deeply Marbled
Heritage animals have been bred to maintain rich marbling resulting in more tender, juicy, and flavorful meat.

"Amazing! I have always focused on sustainability and I forgot all about BREED. What a difference in taste!" — Alice Waters of Chez Panisse
Regeneratively Farmed
“Grass, it is at the heart of our operation, and restoring grassland and soil is one of the reasons that we scaled up our operation.” — Ben Machin of Tamarack Sheep Farm.
Traceability
Every cut we sell is labeled with the name of its origin farm or breed — such as Berkshire, Red Wattle, Akaushi, Tunis, and many more!

Heritage Breeds: The Only Meat You Should Eat

Heritage breeds can be traced back prior to the advent of industrial farming, meaning that they are directly connected to the beginnings of settled agriculture.

We partner exclusively with independent family farms humanely raising heritage breeds on pasture without antibiotics.

What our customers

are saying

"What a feast. We are very impressed with the quality of the meat and other products you have supplied us. The pricing is fair and the service really outstanding. We will be happy customers for a long time."

— Michael from California

"Really, you might consider an online, publicly visible rating system. Why, you may ask? Because my last order included bone-in pork loin. I followed the direction card you included in my order. The vagaries of charcoal grilling being what they are, the loin I cooked on my Weber Kettle was done slightly early but it was perfect! Five Stars!"

— Charles from Tennesse

"The best ham I have ever eaten in all my 63 years! Beautiful flavor, not too sweet, with a perfect balance of lean to fat. The texture of the meat is firm and absolutely perfect, and the fat is silky and delicious. It is the ham every other ham wishes it could be... the ham of dreams!"

— Denise from Wisconsin

"I’m always delighted to receive gifts from you all. I consider myself lucky to have such a fine organization to buy different breeds and types of meat from! Keep up the good work and know that you are truly appreciated."

— Mary from Florida

"Oh goodness, you have no idea how much we drooled over the shank offerings!! Couldn't be more excited to have these babies in the freezer and do the 'shank a month' thing!! We love a good shank!! I shop heritage meat because in addition to believing you are what you eat, you are also what you eat eats. I value pasture raised and finished and we have found the heritage breeds to have a superior flavor!"

— Deb from North Carolina


"We ate the steaks last night for one of my new employee's welcome dinner. So good — the fat tasted like straight butter. Country ribs are the unsung hero of your website! I still have one rack frozen and look forward to letting those loose soon. I seared them over super high heat on the grill for a few minutes then left them on a slightly warm side of the grill for about 2 hours and flipped 'em every thirty minutes or so and basted as I flipped. Man those were great."

— Ben from California
