How To Pre Order Grass Fed And Finished Beef And Have It Delivered To Montgomery Farmers Market For Pick Up 

One of the cornerstone products that MFM provides access to every week is grass fed and finished beef. There are two vendors that currently share in supplying MFM with grass fed and finished meat right now: Timberlake Farms run by Pat and Ted Stevens, and The Serenity Homestead who partners with the local ranch Downes Natural Beef. These vendors are truly the cream of the crop - they go above and beyond to insure that their meat is as pure and natural as it can be. MFM regards them as examples for what it means to be truly "beyond organic". Not only are they all extremely vigilant in watching over their land and protecting it from chemicals that come in the form of pesticides, insecticides, herbicides, weed killers, chemical fertilizers, and more, but Timberlake Farms even use regenerative practices such as rotational grazing and compost teas to put nutrients back into the soil. Even though their animals are fed only grass and hay all year long, they still have to consider things like, "where is my hay harvested from? Was it sprayed with anything?" and "Was the field next to it sprayed?".



They are also faced with challenges regarding the processing facilities they use. Not all processors are created equal, and if they take their cattle to a facility which is run poorly they can run the risk of leaving with meat from someone else's cow. In addition, small ranches have been having a harder and harder time getting in to process meat. It has been taking months to even get on the schedule with a processor, and some have simply stopped taking new clients. However, the good news is that These farmers do what they do not because it is easy, but because they love to provide people with clean, natural nourishment! If you'd like to start to order from these incredible farmers and support our local supply chains, you can come by the market each week and check out their products!
