SALE OF BEEF WILL BEGIN AGAIN SOMETIME IN THE SPRING OF 2026.
Local grass fed & grass finished locker beef for sale. We have six Dexter heifers and two steers 18-19 months old all raised here on the farm. Dexters are a small, fast maturing breed of cattle (mature cows are around 800lbs compared to 1200-1600 for conventional breeds) with smaller animals like these the size of the cuts of beef are proportional to the size of the animal (a finished Dexter cow can be around 2/3rds or less the size of the larger animals processed through commercial feedlots). The cows will be butchered November 8th and the meat will be available around two weeks later.
Sold as whole, or halves (price is the same) if you don’t want that much beef talk to your friends and family and try and find one or more people to split an animal with. A $50 deposit is needed on all orders and will be credited to your total price. The price is per pound and by hanging weight (this is the weight of the animal after it has been skinned and gutted). This includes the butchering fee, with most locker beef you will be asked to pay the butchers fee separately (usually between $300 and $500 for a whole cow). The estimated weights, prices, and storage space that are given are just that, estimates, and have the potential to vary widely from actual weight. The beef will lose 20%-30% of its weight (moisture loss) while it is dry aged. One cubic foot of freezer space will hold 35 to 40 pounds of processed frozen meat. If you want your processed meat delivered I will make an effort to do that, or you can pick it up yourself from the butcher at your convenience.
Dexter Heifers (6 available) Price Per Pound $4.10
Estimated Weight(+/-) 450lb (whole) 225lb (half) Estimated Price(+/-) $1,845 (whole) $922.5 (half) Estimated Storage 11.25ft3 (whole) 5.6ft3 (half)
Total storage space and weight of the processed meat will vary based on cutting instructions (bone in or bone out, shape of the cuts etc). If you are interested in locker beef from an older animal at a later date (and at a lower price) let me know as I will be culling cows later.
