Willow City Farm

We do not ship any meat products.

 

Here's how the process works:

Once you have placed your deposit, we'll send you a confirmation to let you know when your meat should be available.  Sometime before cutting, we'll go over the butcher cut instructions with you step by step.  It can be confusing, but we'll ask you all kinds of questions to determine the right cuts for you.  Do you have a big family, or small?  Do you have a smoker?  Do you like your steaks REALLY thick, or just average?  We'll cover it all with you!

​

When will it be ready?

​

For steer, they will hang and dry age for about 14  - 21 days.  We will deliver the meat as soon as it's ready!

​

Hogs don't dry age, but the cure does take 2 weeks, so if you have ham or bacon in your order, expect it ready about 2 weeks after the butcher date.

​

Lamb and goat are available within the week of the butcher date.

​

As always, feel free to call us with any questions.
