FAQ.
Am I responsible for taking the animal home?
After the sale, your animal will be sent to the processor and you will pick it up from them when it is packaged and ready. We have contracted with Mountain Meat Packing, AGP Processing, and Fitch Ranch Artisan Meat Co. to process all our sale animals. At the sale you can specify how you want your meat cut or you can call your processor within two business days. You will then have a freezer full of delicious, locally raised meat for you to enjoy all year! Cut sheets for specifying meat cuts can be found here. |
What if you don’t want the meat, but you still want to support the 4-H kids?
That’s GREAT! If you are the successful bidder at check out you can choose to donate the meat to a local charity. Buyers are still responsible for paying for processing. If you are planning to donate your meat, please let us know so we can send you to the correct processor! Suggested charities: Lift-Up, Horizons, Casey's Pond, The Haven, etc... |
What if you don’t need that much meat?
