this is the second time I'm ordering my beef from Mitten Rock Farm in the Hudson Valley of New York.
The beef farm is family owned and operated, conveniently located off the Taconic State Parkway near Knoxon Road in the town of Lagrangeville.
This time around, I am preparing home-cooked meals for our labrador. Although each ingredient is human grade and recently butchered, my family is not keen on organ meats, but my Doggie sure is.
The prices are very reasonable, especially considering that these cows are cared for in a human way, grazing across hundreds of acres of historic Hudson Valley land. No chemicals are added this is organic.
At a time when food seems to be tainted with heaven knows what, it's comforting to know that when we do eat meat, it is clean and free of chemicals and that the cows were treated humanely for as long as their life would permit
I'm a hypocrite I guess because I like meat, but I want to make sure that it is sourced responsibly.
Keith manages the day-to-day outdoor operations ( photographed here), while his brother drew manages the payment and finances.
It all works very nicely. You will pay a premium per pound, but the trade-off is comfort in the care that they bring to the work.
Today I picked up 20 pounds of organ meats: beef liver, heart, and tongue, all of which will make for a lovely stew for William the lab-hound.
This is the place for your beef. See my other reviews for vegetables, eggs, and other local farms, read more
