Straight outta Australia, these beauties are more than just your run-of-the-mill moo-makers; they're the crème de la crème of bovine brilliance!

Farmer Tim's explains Beef Recalls

Farmer Tim highlights the prevalence of beef recalls and issues in the meat industry, attributing them to conditions in CAFOs, including poor diets and overuse of antibiotics. It contrasts this with Autumn's Harvest Farm's natural, humane farming practices, emphasizing free grazing and individual care during processing.

Why Berkshire Pork?

Our Heritage Breed Berkshire Pork is the crown jewel of our farm, offering succulent, tender meat with marbled fat that promises a flavor explosion. Thanks to Berkshire genetics and our slow growth rate, we serve up the juiciest pork around. But it's not just about taste; our pigs enjoy a life of luxury, roaming outdoors and foraging freely. Plus, our pork is packed with nutrition, boasting higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants for a wholesome meal.

WHY Grass fed?

As the chilly winds of winter whip through our pastures, Farmer Tim here at Autumn's Harvest Farm is huddled up in the cozy warmth of the farmhouse, planning and dreaming about the upcoming seasons. Winter is the time when we order our pasture-raised chickens and turkeys, eagerly anticipate the calving, and most importantly, daydream about the glorious grass! You see, being a regenerative farm, everything revolves around the grass – the green carpet that sustains our livestock and breathes life into our ecosystem. It got me pondering about one particular topic that's close to our hearts: the importance of choosing grassfed and finished beef.
