PAINTED HILLS FARMS
Besides our local purveyors & farmers, Painted Hills Beef keep our beef case full. Located out of Fossil, Oregon, Painted Hills Beef is a large cooperative of cattle ranchers with numerous ranches scattered throughout the northwest that raise antibiotic and hormone free beef. All the beef is sent to one of two feed lots located in eastern Oregon where the animals spend the last 2-6 months eating a feed consisting of barley, alfalfa and corn. This produces a consistent, well marbled animal that customers enjoy.
ANDERSON RANCH LAMB
Anderson Ranch is a cooperative of sheep farms in the Willamette Valley just south of Portland, Oregon. The natural grass in this area allows the animals plenty of nutrition which produces beautiful lamb. We get this lamb from Nicky USA, who process it at their plant in Portland and deliver it to us twice a week.
