We make it easy!
When you put a deposit down for a beef share, we will contact you within 24 hours to set a date for delivery. When you purchase a quarter cow beef share you get more than just the meat, you get a consultation with your personal farmer to help better understand the process. He will advise which cuts work best for your family given his extensive experience. He is your resident expert on local farming, you'll have his number so feel free to text him for a recipe or for questions on where to source the best local food.
Your Farmer will deliver your half beef to your door and even put it in your freezer if you'd like!
Vacuum Sealed Processing is included in the pricing.
A quarter beef share will have approximately 135# of processed beef .

The Cost- Currently you can expect a quarter beef to cost around $800-$900 and processing at Rabers is around $225-$275 or a combined $1050-$1150.
