Good morning Family Cow family!
The last week here on the farm has been more like spring than early January, so we are enjoying every minute of it. :)
It's the start of a new year and a new season of life for me.
I haven't done very well with sharing farm stories in 2025 and so I plan to carve out more time to make it happen this year. A lot of exciting and crazy busy days over the last 12 months, but that's not a valid excuse. You trust us to grow nourishing food for your family and we will do our best to repay that trust by sharing as many farm life details as possible.
Be sure to stay tuned for regular farm emails from me or maybe even my dad, Edwin, over the coming weeks... We have a lot of exciting news on the horizon!
Today this email brings the one hard fact to announce...
Seems the year shouldn't start like this, but I want to get it out of the way so we can save the best for last in coming emails. And this truly is the only negative point of what I plan to share. The next weeks are all full of exciting news and fun farm announcements. :)
As we reviewed our 2025 financials, the niggling fears were sadly confirmed. Our beef margins have not kept up with inflating costs.
Regenerative, 100% Grass-fed beef farming is beautiful and plays a key role in restoring health to our rescued farm land.
But that's not enough. It must also be financially sustainable for family farms to continue from one generation to the next.
Beef prices need to go up nearly 5% on average. Some items won't move at all but others, like burger and steaks, will bump more.
Our family does not take any price correction lightly.
In an effort to help make the change easier for everyone, we will freeze all beef prices at the current rate until January 27.
Now is the chance to fill your freezer with 2025 Beef prices.
Our family and team truly appreciates your understanding of the need to keep our cattle farming sustainable!
All the best of food and blessings,
Wesley

P.S. Our frozen meats will easily last a year or more in your freezer. We recommend stocking up now. If a package becomes unsealed just use it first to avoid freezer burn taste.
