No Hormones, No Antibiotics

We raise our cattle with NO hormones and NO antibiotics.

This is how we ensure a great quality product for you.
And now your pets can benifit too.

We have had our smoked beef bones for dogs for many years.  Besides buying them from us at the farm market, You can even buy them from Turtle Pond Bakery in the summer and from 2 Paws Up Bakery year round.

BUT now you will also be able to get beef and liver treats for your pet from us at the farm market and they are all made from beef and liver from our cattle.

The "Motivator" Liver treats are hormone and antibiotic free.  They are little pieces of dried liver.  They are dried, cut and packaged for us by 2 Paws Up Bakery.  These are primarily a Dog treat. 

The Beef "Country Pet Treats" are also hormone and antibiotic free and made strickly with beef from our animals.  They are made by Turtle Pond Bakery using her recipes.  These will be softer and so they can be used for Dogs or Cats.

We started with the liver treats last week at the farm market and this week will have the Beef treats also.

This is a great time of the year to be getting your pets something special.  These also make great gifts for your pet or for another pet lover.

Harvest Pork Stew

 

Ingredients 

 recipe makes 6 servings

 

2 tablespoons butter or oil

1 1/2 pounds boneless pork, cut into 1/2-inch cubes (Our pork stir fry works great for this)

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 medium onion, chopped

3 cups chicken broth

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed

1/4 teaspoon rubbed sage

1 bay leaf

3 cups frozen, cubed butternut squash

2 MacIntosh apples, cored and cubed

2 large potatoes, peeled and cubed (optional)

2 cups carrots, peeled and diced (optional)

 

Directions

1. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook until lightly browned on all sides. Stir in the garlic and onion, and continue to cook until the onion has softened, and the pork is firm, and no longer pink, about 5 minutes.
2. Place the pork and onions into a large saucepan. Pour in the chicken broth, and season with salt, rosemary, sage, and the bay leaf. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes.
3. Stir in the butternut squash, apples, potatoes, and carrots. Return to a simmer, then cook, uncovered until the squash and apples are tender, about 20 minutes. Remove the bay leaf and serve.
