Grass-fed Beef
Tuesday, October 6, 2009 at 4:14PM
Time to sign up for your share of Sunshine-raised beef!
Our eight steers have been happily grazing all season long in green pastures, overlooking our veggie fields and enjoying the gorgeous view of Lake Chelan. Now they're looking for a good home in a friendly family freezer!
Happy Cows Means Healthy Meat
Sunlight, nutritious pasture, and fresh air make for a healthy cow. These cows have never received hormones or antibiotics. Grass-fed means a better ratio of Omega-3s to Omega-6s than supermarket beef. Our beef is corn-finished to mellow the flavor. The beef is also dry aged, not wet aged like most supermarket beef. Our customers can't say enough good things about the flavor and texture of this beef!
Our beef is available by the half or by the quarter. A half will feed a family of four for a year. It's about 180-250 lbs of meat depending on the size of the animal (rough cost of $800-$1100). A quarter is half that: 90-125 lbs of meat at $400-$550. The approximate price of the beef cut and wrapped is $4.30/lb.
