Our goal is to bring you, the consumer, our finest product using modern
techniques while paying utmost attention to our environment and health. Our
calves are raised on lush Northwest Washington grass and mama's milk. We do not
use hormones or growth promotants. We insure the health of our cattle by
implementing a good vaccination program and clean facilities. If an animal
needs medication we pay close attention to the injection site by administering
all shots in the neck and observing withdrawal times.

Maine-Anjou
beef is naturally lower in fat, tender and tasty. Many of our animals are
crossed with Angus which allows us to feed efficiently and produce a top
quality product.

Orders
will be taken any time of the year but at this point we will be butchering in
the spring and fall. Payments may be made by credit card or check with a
$100.00 deposit for a quarter beef and a $200.00 deposit for a half beef.
Payments will be made monthly with the balance due at butcher when we know the
weight. The price of beef varies. When we butcher we will charge market
price at that time.

To
place an order or to request beef recipes and Maine-Anjou information please
call us at 360-853-8494.

walks and viewing wildlife are favorite pastimes for many; local inhabitants
include eagles, hawks, osprey, deer, elk, beaver, and an occasional bear.
During the hours between dusk and dawn, the owl and coyotes call to each other
in the nearby forests. A private wildlife refuge, the ranch affords over 500
acres where you can become a part of nature for just awhile.
