Please note: Many farms offer only custom processing (this is just a classification) instead of USDA inspected processing.
With custom processing, the farmer is dropping off an animal you have purchased at the processor for you. At that point, you are responsible for all processing arrangements including payment and pick up. Any issues with the fulfillment of the cut sheet are between you and the processor. While we are more than willing to offer this type of processing we feel that it is our responsibility as the farmer and a business to make sure you are getting what you ordered while being able to offer you convenient pick up locations or delivery. Also the USDA label can only be put on cuts from animals that were passed by a USDA inspector. Custom processing does not go through a USDA inspection and can use simpler "Not for Resale" labeling making it a more economical option.
