Our Beef
No mystery beef. Ever.
Supermarket ground beef, including most retail grass-fed and organic, is blended from a dozen or more animals at a time. Ours never is. The grinder is cleaned between every side, so what you take home comes from your animal and nothing else.
On pasture 24/7 through the grazing season, rotated paddock to paddock so the grass always gets its rest. No hormones. No antibiotics. No confinement.

How it works
Three steps between here and a full freezer
Step 01
Reserve
Tell us what you are after and we will confirm availability and timing in writing. Your reservation holds your animal for the season, no deposit required.
Step 02
Choose your cuts
We walk you through the cut sheet, roasts, steak thickness, burger packs, brisket, stew meat, bones for the dog.
Step 03
Delivered
Your beef hangs a minimum of seven days, is cut and vacuum packed, and arrives at your door ready for the freezer.
From the pastures
The farm, day to day
Our farm
Grass, soil, weather, and a long memory
The lower Champlain Valley is unlike the rest of Vermont, milder, heavier clay soils, a longer grazing season. Managing it well means watching pH as closely as weather, mowing paddocks behind the herd, and giving every field two to four weeks of rest before the cattle come back through.
Everything else follows from the grass.
About the farmA customer update
Vermont Natural Beef is delivering again.
We were interrupted. We were not finished.
Over the past year, interference with VNB’s operations affected access to infrastructure, livestock, inventory, processing, and ultimately customer fulfillment. We have rebuilt the operation around direct management control and are resuming deliveries.
Reserve for this season
A year of dinners, settled in an afternoon
Start with a box, or reserve a side or quarter at one fixed price. A reservation holds your animal for the season, no deposit required, nothing due today.
