Hayes Farms Pasture raised beef, chicken, and lamb in the Big Rapids area
"If we don't grow it they don't eat it." is the motto we try to live by.
Hayes Farms provides all natural chemical free pasture raised beef, chicken, and lamb. Our animals are never fed GMOs.
All our beef cattle are pasture finished, we do not use grain to increase gain or fat content. Our meat is very lean. We strive to provide a healthy alternative to feed lot beef. In winter months the cattle are fed all natural grass mix hay and non-GMO corn/hay silage. We keep our cattle on pasture all year.
All of our beef is vacuum packed for freshness and quickly frozen. If you are interested in purchasing small or large quantities please contact us. We sell in packages by the pound. Or you can buy a half, or whole beef sold by the hanging weight.
Lamb meat is in similar cuts and sold by the pound in packages and by the live weight.
(Hanging weight means the animal is humanely killed, cleaned, skinned, cut in half and hung up on hooks and weighed.) An average weight for our beef halves is 300 lbs or a little over. A lamb is about 70 pounds hanging weight.
We also raise meat chickens just call and place your order. Chickens are butchered in the summer months. We start the chicks on certified organic chick starter and as soon as possible the chicks are put on pasture to free range. We start chicks in April so please call and place your orders. We sell the chickens for $4.00 a pound after butchering.
