Our apologies if you are receiving this e-mail for the second time this week.  We are working with a new server and mailing system and encountered a glitch with the mailing earlier this week, preventing some of the e-mails to be returned.  Please bear with us as we iron our the kinks!

This coming week is a big one for markets and deliveries.  Demand for our beef is growing weekly, so we recommend ordering ahead to enhance your chances of getting the cuts you desire.  Better yet, sign up for one of our subscription programs, and you’ll be first in line each month.
