Locally Raised Natural Beef--Ringgold

We've recently learned of yet another family raising good food. They have been raising calves for the market for several years and recently decided to attempt to raise them for beef. They had a handful this year and still have two left which will be ready about the end of May. Here's the info.
The closed herd cows have free reign of the pasture and they get supplemental conventional hay through the winter months until the amount of grass is sufficient to feed them again. They also supplement with the occasional minimal amount of corn-based conventional grain feed. They use no steroids, antibiotics, or fillers.

The meat is processed to your specifications in a USDA slaughterhouse in Athens which is clean, organized and processes other naturally raised local meat.

The farm is located in Ringgold close to TN border.

The pricing: 3.25/lb hanging weight for a whole, 3.50 for half, 3.75 for quarter. Delivery is free for the first location and $20/location after that.

To place an order or for questions, contact David and Shelly Coffee @ 706.965.4325
