Basket Flat Ranch is located in the Pacific Northwest, near Battle Ground, Washington. Basket Flat Ranch utilizes the mild, wet climate, longer growing season, and lush pastures to produce a superior, all natural, grass fed beef product for your dinner table.

We feed our beef animals only grass and clover pasture and locally grown grass and clover hay during the Winter season. We fertilize our pastures with manure and manure compost and avoid the use of chemical fertilizer.

We do not use any hormones or anti-biotics and we are a small ranch with tame animals that we personally work with in a low stress manner.

We raise Angus beef (both red and black color), and we are constantly selecting genetics in our breeding stock for the best tenderness, marbling, and steak thickness.

We are passionate about raising beef with all natural techniques and carefully taking care of and stewarding our animals and pastures year after year so we can produce a healthy beef product for our table and yours.

We serve the S.W. Washington and Portland, OR Metro area. Our beef is available for pick up from a local butcher in Battle Ground, WA. Please visit our web site for ordering, quantities, pricing and availability.

Butler Creek Farm grass-fed cows are born and raised on a small coastal Oregon Century Farm that was homesteaded by our family in the 1800s. The farm includes old growth timber, salt marsh and alluvial flood plain pastures.

Our cows are humanely treated and graze our pastures year round. Their winter diets are supplemented with clover and grass hay that is grown and harvested on-site. They are not fed any grains. They do not receive any hormones or low level antibiotics. They do receive immunizations and de-worming solutions as recommended by our herd veterinarian to keep them healthy in our lush environment.

Beef is sold by the whole, half, or quarter animal. We also sell hamburger by the quarter animal. Our cattle are butchered on-site by a licensed mobile butcher. This is carefully done away from the rest of the herd. The butcher hauls the hanging beef in a refrigerated truck to the custom meat packing plant, where it is aged under refrigeration. We use one butcher in Eugene and one in Bandon.

We only sell our beef directly to consumers each fall (typically) with the option of delivery for a $45 fee, or you can pick up your product directly from the butcher.

Campfire Farms is a carbon-negative, pasture-based pig (pork) and poultry (chicken) farm in Mulino, Oregon. Our mission is to raise happy animals on pasture, while nurturing healthy soil and feeding our community.

We’re building a Silvopasture system, which is, in our opinion, the most idyllic farm scenario: our fields are full of lush perennial grasses, fruit and nut trees, and livestock grazing about. The grass is a photosynthesis carpet, pulling carbon out of the air and turning it into food for the animals. The fruit and nut trees provide food for us, and whatever we don’t eat, the animals will. And the animals poop. As they roam around, they spread their manure. They also compact the soil, but the roots from the grass and trees break it up again. We move the animals each week so they aren’t over-fertilizing or compacting any one area too much. And if they do (because life gets busy), we make sure to reseed that area.

We’re creating a system that will be able to produce food beyond our time here, for whoever wants to do the work. We are farming for the future.

The best way to learn more or shop with us is through our website or by visiting us at the Oregon City Farmer's Market, PSU Farmer's Market or the Milwaukie Farmer's Market.

Cedar Park Grazing’s ranch headquarters is in the small town of Riddle, Oregon.
If you are looking for pasture-raised and pasture-finished beef or lamb we invite you to look at what we offer.

Our animals are raised using gentle, low-stress handling methods, with rotational grazing to ensure excellent health. They are never exposed to antibiotics or hormones, and they eat exclusively non-GMO pasture grass nine months of the year with some additional grass hay during winter months. They never see a feed lot or corn.

Jo Robinson, host of this website, has done her research and she provides ample evidence on this site for the health benefits of meat from pasture-raised animals. We have linked to her site for years from our initial website, UmpquaValleyLamb.com.

Your order will be shipped cold in specially chosen wool-insulated boxes with 1–2 day delivery. Wool is a great insulator (ask the sheep!), and it enables us to avoid using Styrofoam. If you find a unique use for the wool insulation when you receive your box, let us know and receive a 10% discount on your next order.

Most of our orders are shipped to west coast locations, although we’ve filled orders on the east coast as well, with meat still cold on arrival!

We welcome questions about how we manage pastures and how our animals are raised. Place your order or contact us at https://cedarparkgrazing.grazecart.com/ or kpanner@frontier.com.

The Faded Rose Ranch is located on Puget Island, on the banks of the Columbia River, across the bridge from Cathlamet, WA and accessible via ferry from Westport, OR. The ranch is within a scenic drive from both Seattle, WA and Portland, OR areas. This one-man and two-dog sheep and cattle operation offers all-natural, grass-fed freezer lamb and beef by the whole or half.

All animals are bred, born, and raised here. Grass/hay, clean water, plus mother’s milk make up the diet of our livestock. Our happy animals are raised in a stress-free and humane environment. We are not certified organic but we try. No hormones, supplements or antibiotics are ever used.

The delicate flavored lamb of a Katahdin hair heritage breed ewe will be a welcome addition to your diet. We look forward to telling you why. Our beef comes from Irish Dexter cows usually crossed with Black Angus to give the finest flavor and a size that will fit in your freezer. Delivery to a local butcher is included in the sale. Delivery to your location may be possible.

Product is available in the fall and can be made available other times of year if prior arrangements are made. It does help the shepherd's planning if indications of product interest could be made as far as possible in advance of your need.

Come visit, bring a kayak and enjoy the river. We are proud of how we raise our animals and we are proud of the quality, taste and safety of our products. We look forward to feeding you soon!

Great Malus Beef is located on the grasslands next to the Columbia River where we sell beef by the quarter. We raise a family herd of Wagyu and Angus beef on natural pastures with no sprays or chemical fertilizers. We have both 100% Wagyu and Wagyu crossed with Angus genetics (commonly called American Kobe Beef). Our goal is to have the best taste and Omega-3 fat content in a grass-finished beef.

Our care philosophy centers around raising the healthiest animals with select genetics to get the heathiest and best-tasting beef. All our beef is from animals born and raised on the farm, free from growth hormones, commercial wormers, and respiratory vaccines.

Cattle spend the winter months in a large pasture with a covered feeding barn big enough for the whole herd to bed down and eat the hay we harvest from our 150 acres of pastures. Our feeding barn is also a USDA approved composting structure, so winter bedding and manure is naturally composted and spread back onto our land the following year.

We harvest beef quarters from May through December when the cows are getting their best nutrition from the grass and clover pastures. We offer a full custom cut with every half beef, and our popular “standard cut” with beef quarters. We also offer shares of ground beef, and specialty-cut quarters for “steaks” or “roasting.” All our beef is frozen, and vacuum sealed for a long life in the freezer, but our customers tend to go through all the tasty beef cuts quickly!

We have a free weekly delivery route with home delivery or drop-off locations near Portland, Vancouver, Hillsboro/Beaverton, and along I-5 and Hwy 30 up to Longview.

The Little Seven Seven Ranch is committed to raising unrivaled Highland Beef on our family-owned and managed mountainside ranch. L77 beef is USDA inspected, allowing us to welcome both large and small orders.

We raise Highland Cattle, a slow growing heritage breed known for superior flavor and tenderness. Our cattle browse 2,000 acres in the Columbia River Gorge, enjoying a biodiverse diet of perennial native grasses and brush. Fields, forest, rocks, and hills allow this ancient and hardy breed to live the lifestyle for which they were bred.

Highland Beef is higher in iron, protein and Omega 3s than commercial beef.

Highland Beef is lower in fat and cholesterol than commercial beef.

Need we say it? We do not use growth hormones, antibiotics, pesticides, fertilizers…

The L77 is dedicated to all natural practices best suited for our cattle and the land which supports them. Many of our customers enjoy coming to The Gorge and seeing the impressive Highland Cattle in the fields and forests, visible from the public roads.

Customers may purchase L77 beef directly from the ranch. Call or email to get a Local Price List, make an appointment at The Ranch Shop, or to discuss delivery of larger orders. Our beef is also available through the Gorge Farmer Collective.

Malheur River Meats was created with the belief that great tasting meat can be healthy and affordable while being produced using humane, sustainable poly culture practices. We are family owned and operated, residing in the beautiful high desert region of Malheur County in southeastern Oregon, just 25 miles from the Idaho/Oregon border.

At Malheur River Meats we believe that producing great tasting healthy meat starts with happy, healthy animals. We accomplish this by providing an environment in which our grass-fed/grass-finished Angus beef, grass fed meat goats (seasonal), outdoor pasture access raised hogs (pork) (Berkshire, Duroc, Spot crosses) and poultry (seasonally) are raised the traditional way, the way nature intended. Our animals spend their lives expressing their natural behavior foraging on grasses, browsing, or just rooting around. These animals are free of antibiotics, synthetic growth hormones and animal by products. We do not use herbicides or pesticides on our pastures.

Our beef and pork are available year-round by the individual cut, quarter, half or whole (calculated on individual packaged weights), plus meat bundle packages. Our beef is dry aged for at least 14 days. Our goat and poultry offerings are available seasonally. Smoked meats, sausages and jerky varieties make up the rest of our product offerings.

To place an order or find out more information about our products, feel free to visit us at our website, call, text, or email. We do local deliveries, or you can arrange to stop at the ranch to pick up an order.

McIntyre Pastures is family owned and has been in the family for over four generations. We offer 100% grass finished beef, along with pastured pork, and eggs.

You can order beef and pork in bulk and we also have cuts available. Once you place an order we will find a mutually beneficial place to meet and deliver your products. We are in the process of changing over our pastures to be certified organic.

Our pasture-based system helps to keep a low carbon footprint. Also, our pigs and chickens receive non-GMO grains grown right on the farm. The animals are not given antibiotics or hormones. Our animals are humanely raised on pasture and we breed for docile animals. This creates a low-stress environment, for not only animal but also humans. All the animals are rotated throughout the pastures to increase soil health and also regenerate the land. Without healthy soils we cannot have healthy plants, animals, and humans.

  • Cows: 100% Grass finished, never fed grain
  • Pigs: ration-grown on farm, no crates or pens, with movement allowed to develop intramuscular fat (taste)
  • Chickens: free range chickens, allowed to forage for food, mineral-rich eggs

For more information about our animals, you can visit our website or contact us.

Meadow Harvest 100% grass-fed beef and lamb.

Our farm consists of 60 acres along a beautiful river. All the pastures are fenced so cows never disturb the banks. All our animals are born and raised on our farm, grazing with their mothers on pastures in a rotational grazing system.

We do not feed grain, hormones or antibiotics. We put our animals comfort and heath as priority number one. We use antibiotics as medicine to treat health problems. The lambs for butcher never receive antibiotics. Occasionally the beef may need to be treated for a problem; we keep track of the treated animals and can assure customers their animal has never received an antibiotic.

We send our animals to a USDA inspected butcher where the meat is dry aged cut and wrapped. We have most of the popular cuts of beef and lamb and can arrange custom orders. We also sell whole and half lambs in the fall. The butcher we use is not certified organic so our meat will not be sold as organic. We are happy to answer specific questions about our products or management.

We sell meat at farmers markets and at the farm, contact us for arrangements. We are located about one and a half hour's drive from Portland OR.

Monitor Farm is located in Mount Angel, Oregon, where our family has been raising pigs and cattle on this farm for more than 100 years.

Our cattle eat only grass. In addition to rotating them around our various pastures, we make enough hay in the spring and summer to feed them in the winter when the grass is not growing.

Our pigs are a mix of heritage breeds and our herd has been on this family farm for nearly 100 years. We raise most of their feed right here on the farm. Upon special request, we can finish them on hazelnuts that we also raise.

We sell (you can purchase) half or whole beef or pork, and have it custom-butchered to fit your needs. We normally use a USDA-inspected butcher located only five minutes away from our farm here in Mount Angel. You will pick up your meat there (we don't ship or deliver).

We generally harvest year-round, although there may be a couple of months between harvests and/or it may take some time to get on the butcher's calendar.

For more information, please call my cell phone listed below. I'll likely answer you from out in the field somewhere. If I don't answer, just leave a message and I'll call you back.

MoonLight Farm, LLC is located in Sweet Home, Oregon. We raise registered Katahdin sheep for breeding and meat on 64 acres of pasture, along with a small number of American Guinea hogs, Irish Dexter cattle, chickens, ducks and LaMancha dairy goats. We hold a Prepackaged Meat Sellers license through the Oregon Department of Agriculture and currently offer for sale:

  • Lamb – whole, half and by the cut. We also sell registered Katahdin breeding stock.
  • Beef – by the quarter and by the cut.
  • Pork – whole and half and by the cut.
  • Raw goat milk
  • Chicken eggs and duck eggs.

All our animals have access to pasture year-round, day and night, with barns for cover in inclement weather and for winter feeding of hay. The sheep and cattle are on a rotational grazing program through the spring and summer. When the pasture dries in the late summer, we supplement the sheep and cattle with hay and free choice minerals. We utilize a deep-bed straw program in the barn for the winter months, moving the partially composted straw and manure to a compost barn. When this is ready, I use a manure spreader to spread the material on the pasture to put nutrients back into the soil.

We practice an organic policy for pest and insect management and don’t use chemicals on the pastures or in our gardens.

Environmental Conservation:
We currently have seven acres, divided into four separate areas, in a Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP) through the Department of Agriculture. These areas also have blue bird nests set up and two ponds in them as well.

Norton Creek Farm sells free-range eggs at the Blodgett Country Store, Richey's, First Alternative Co-op in Corvallis, and at farmer's markets in the Corvallis area in season. Our pasture-raised broilers are available by subscription May–October. The broilers are hand-processed and are picked up at the farm. Thanksgiving turkeys are pasture-raised Red Bourbons, an old-fashioned, smaller breed with fine flavor. Order early. We didn't have enough birds for last-minute customers last year!

Grass-fed Romney cross lamb (with an excellent, mild flavor), chevon, and pasture-raised pork are also available by subscription.

We believe that raising birds and animals on grass gives the best flavor.

Nourished With Nature is a small family farm in Lebanon, Oregon. Blake and Julia and their three young boys own and operate the farm. We raise the kind of meat you want to feed your family—FREE of chemicals, additives, hormones, antibiotics, common allergens like corn and soy. It's some of the cleanest and tastiest meat you can find, and we want to share with you!

We raise pastured and organically-fed Berkshire PORK, finished on acorns in our wood lot. We also raise grass fed and finished BEEF. In addition, we have bones for broth and organ meat such as heart and liver for sale. Special requests for tongue, feet, etc., can be arranged on an individual basis. Our pork is supplemented with a locally-milled, non-GMO, corn and soy-free feed.

You can purchase pork by the half or whole, and beef by the eighth, quarter, half, or whole. We also have individual cuts of beef and pork available at the Corvallis Farmers Market, Corvallis Winter Market as well as in our on-farm store on Thursdays 3–7pm. We welcome farm visits by appointment, we are completely transparent in all we do. All our farm products can be reserved by placing a deposit on our website. We do our best to keep our waitlist short, but it's best to get on the list as soon as the timing is right for you.

Ramsden RanchSee Mountain Beef above


Red Mountain Grass Fed Beef are raised on river-bottom native and heritage grasses along the Yakima River at the base of Red Mountain (premium wine country), not far from Oregon's northern border.

We have set very high standards and practices for ourselves. We never, never, use grains, antibiotics, fertilizers, chemicals, growth hormones, etc. We use a machete to hand chop weeds (no health club fees here!) and have a no-till policy. Cattle are rotated between our pastures These cattle are 100% grass fed and finished. The land has an impressive earth worm population and our fish keep busy cleaning our water trough. Our location is extremely peaceful and stress free.

We are not certified and have no plans to do so. We may exceed certified standards. (We get a little nuts with producing clean food.) Typically all of our steers are called for, but this year we had a few cancellations.

Harvest is about as stress free as it can be. Any sign of stress, we do not proceed with harvest. Stress really does effect the taste and harvest is extremely important.

Please check-out our web-site, www.redmountaingrassfedbeef.com. When possible, get to know your farmer. We love to have visitors and bring the kids...you will learn a lot.

Sea Breeze Farm is a diverse, multi-species, “beyond organic,” grass-based animal farm, formerly located on the beautiful Isle of Vashon in Washington’s picturesque Puget Sound. Although we still maintain our original property on the island, we have moved our farm operation into the gorgeous Nehalem River Valley located in the majestic Misty Mountains of Northwest Oregon, about 20 miles from Longview, Washington. For the time being we continue to sell from our mobile meat truck in Seattle and Vashon. Please see website for full details.

We do not apply commercial fertilizers of any kind to our pastures, relying instead on a grazing technique modeled after the migratory habits of wild cattle and bird populations. This labor-intensive, rotational system allows our freely-ranging poultry flocks to symbiotically forage, fertilize and cleanse the pastures behind our dairy herd. The resulting animal proteins produced on our farm are of infinitely superior quality, both flavor- and health-wise than those produced conventionally, and in our opinion are significantly superior to typical “Organic” animal products. We also take pride in the sustainability and resource-wise management of our farm systems.

Our full range of Pork, Duck, Chicken, Beef, Lamb, and value-added meats, sausage, pâtés, and charcuterie are available at our “Magic Meat Truck” popups in Seattle and Vashon. We now offer shipping through our website to locations in Washington and Oregon. Please see our website for details on Shopping and Shipping.

Winter Green Farm offers delicious, lean 100% grassfed beef. Our animals are treated with respect and raised in a manner that is both as natural as possible and which enlivens our farm. Our goal is to have all of our beef consumed by those that can respect and appreciate the difference in how our animals are raised.

We sell quarters, halves, and whole animals directly to the consumer. The beef is cut, wrapped and frozen to your specifications and must be picked up locally in the Eugene area. Our beef is available primarily in the fall with some availability year round. We also raise medicinal herbs, fruits, and vegetables. Most of our fruits and vegetables are sold to over 300 families that are members of our farm. Our herb and vegetable production has been certified organic since 1984. More information is available on our website.
