We’re excited to be a part of this program next week!

Thank you to everyone who came out yesterday to the pop up market! It was great to see old friends and meet lots of new folks. If you weren’t able to make it out we still have some beef boxes available.

We’re looking for pasture in Frederick or Carroll County for our growing herd of cattle, which currently stands at about 20 cow-calf pairs.

We are able to pay commodity crop rates for pasture, so landowners and lessors with pasture can get the same income from us without having to convert to commodity lands.

If you have raw land without infrastructure, we may be able to handle the infrastructure ourselves.

We are experienced land managers and have to the appropriate gear to help maintain your property as well.

Finally, we are very flexible on lease terms and are able to accommodate short-term and long term leases.

They all contain ground beef, a roast cut, a couple steaks, and either a shank, short ribs, or stew meat, and all fit in a box that could hold a pair a boots

We of course still have Butcher Boxes (~22 lbs for $9/lb) and 1/8 Shares (~40 for $8.50/lb).

It’s becoming more common to see empty shelves and signs apologizing for food shortages in grocery stores. As our national and global food chains becomes more threatened, now more than ever is the time to buy from a local farm.

As always, our prices are cheaper than the grocery, and the quality is unmatched. We offer our standard 1/8 shares (pictured below) at $8.50/lb, or a Smaller Butcher Box (half the size at about 25 lbs - this easily fits in a reusable grocery bag) for $9/lb.

Shop local, and spend less money!

Our Beef Butcher Boxes are better quality and flavor than anything at the grocery, and cheaper by $1/lb of their sale price ($7 cheaper than the non sale price). Plus if you’re local, we will deliver to you, saving you gas ⛽️

Approximately 25 lbs of beef to include 4 lbs of ground, a couple of roasts, and the rest in steaks 🥩 all of which fits in a standard grocery bag and easily stores in your freezer. Price is $9/lb for the meat you get. If you buy 2, which is a 1/8 share of a steer, cost drops to $8.50/lb.

EDIT - now only one 1/8 share (45 lbs) and 1 smaller Butcher Box (~22lbs) available.

Yet another reason to buy your food from small farms - beef prices rose 20% nationally in 2021 (link below) but our prices didn’t change at all!

Yes, it costs us more to produce our beef than it costs industrial-scale agribusiness. However, we are not subject to the same fitful whims and market fluctuations they are. Global supply chain problems, ubiquitous federal and international regulatory controls, and shameless profiteering by agricultural conglomerates are simply not things we’re involved in.

We know what it costs us to produce our beef and we will NEVER price gouge. We have ALWAYS had an honest and direct relationship with our customers and we ALWAYS will.

We only have 3 share left until March. Call/text 240-338-0320 to order or check out our website www.potomacvalleyorganics.com

After some feedback we are now also offering smaller Beef Butcher Boxes (20-25 lbs. priced at $9/lb.). Boxes include approximately 7 lbs. of ground, 5-6 steaks, 1-2 roasts, and either a pack of stew meat or rib shanks. This is still cheaper than the grocery store, and all fits in a larger size reusable grocery bag. These are available for immediately delivery or pick up at our farm in Union Bridge.

Message me or call/text 240-338-0320.
