Beef
The small herd of Belted Galloway cattle you can find grazing the rolling hillside pastures at Snake Hill Farm plays a key role in sustaining the entire operation. The natural foraging instinct of this heritage breed maximizes the opportunity to convert the lush green grass into beef for the table and manure for the fields and compost pile.
Organically raised beef must meet strict federal standards, enforced by extensive recordkeeping requirements and regular annual inspections. Our cattle stay out on pasture whenever weather permits. In winter they get hay grown organically on the Farm. We also like to give them small amounts of grain (mostly spelt or corn) for a more varied diet. They receive no hormones, antibiotics or other drugs. They receive regular vaccinations recommended by the vet to ensure herd health.
Our beef is sold both by individual cuts at North Union Farmers Markets and on the hoof direct from the farm. Click on Pricing for details about purchasing a whole, half or quarter animal.
