Are you interested in purchasing beef?

Here's how it works step by step

​

If you have never purchased farm raised beef before or have additional questions,

feel free to contact us, we're happy to help!

​

​

1.) Click on the 'Order Now' button below to place your order and pay a deposit to reserve your beef share. We sell beef in quarter, half or whole shares. 

​

2.) We'll email you 2 -3 weeks before the cattle are harvested to confirm the slaughter date and your order. We will also send a link for you to fill out your cut sheet for the butcher. 

​

3.) The cattle are harvested by professionals using a humane and clean process. Your share is marked immediately with our farm name and transported to the butcher shop cooler.

​

4.) We will then email you:

• The hanging weight of your share

• Your invoice and amount due via QuickBooks from Springherd Farms 

• Payment and pick-up instructions​

​

5.) You pay the farm (us) for the hanging weight of your beef share + plus the slaughter fee. This covers the cost of raising the animal from start to finish and what we pay to have the animals harvested.  

​​​

6.) The butcher will contact you when your meat is ready. You'll pick up your meat at the butcher shop and pay them for their cut and wrap services separately.  Note: The amount due to the farm and the butcher are two different transactions.

Beef cost by hanging weight:

Your cost is based on the hanging weight of your share per pound.

Ex: A half weighs approximately 350 (may vary depending on the animal).  This is what we aim for .

​

•  Quarter - $4.75 lb.   

* If you order a quarter share the butcher will include meat cuts from both the back and front quarters of one side. This creates a "split quarter" and offers the best variety of meat cuts between two different customers.

 

• Half - $4.50 lb. 

 

• Whole - $4.25 lb. 

​

 

 

Approximate Share Costs (before cut & wrap)

QUARTER $800 - $950, HALF $1,300 -$1,600 - WHOLE $2,200 - $2,700

Example of take home beef:

* Take home beef is approximately 60 - 62% of the hanging weight

​

Quarter Beef Share:

You can expect approximately  110 - 125 lbs. of beef  

60% hanging weight in cuts and approximately 25% of that in ground beef. 

​

Half Beef Share:

You can expect approximately  210 - 225 lbs. of beef 

60% hanging weight in cuts and approximately 25% of that in ground beef. 

​

Whole Beef Share: 

You'll receive approximately 420 - 460 pounds of beef with approximately 150 +/- pounds in ground beef, and 200 +/= pounds in cuts like steaks, roasts, ribs, brisket, tenderloin etc. It's best to share a whole beef with a family member or friend. 

​

The cost of your beef when all costs are applied is approximately $9 - $11 lb.

This includes premium cuts like steaks, roasts, as well as roasts and ground beef. 

​

Example:

350 lb. hanging weight x $4.50 = $1,575.00

+ $1.19 cut & wrap to the butcher (350 x $1.19) = $416.50

+ $80 Slaughter Fee = $80.00

Total - $1,991.50

Total of take home beef (60% - 62% hanging weight) = 210 pounds cut and wrapped 

$1,991.00 / 210 LBS = $9.48 LB
