Notice: We are discontinuing the sale of
retail cuts of beef from here at the farm. In the future, we will only be
selling sides of beef or live animals. If you would like to be on the
email waiting list for a side of beef, please
Email Larry to get on the list. See our
FAQ for more information.
Our brood herd has been sold and after this
fall we will be out of the beef business. Our brood herd and feeder cattle
have been sold to Dan and Ruth Holmes of
Sunnyfield Farm in Peterborough.
In a little while, they may have Beltie beef available in their farm store.
We are very grateful that Dan and Ruth have taken on our herd and we are happy
that the herd will be staying in the Monadnock area.
At Green Ledge Farm (in beautiful
Francestown, NH) we are committed to providing 100% grass FED / 100% grass
FINISHED beef. We are Certified Organic by the
New Hampshire Dept. of Agriculture for both our Livestock and our Hay and
Pasture Fields. Our cows eat only certified organic grass and certified organic
grass hay during their entire lifetime.
Grass fed and finished cows are
happier and healthier than animals fed grain in crowded feedlots. They have
much higher levels of beneficial Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) and omega-3
fatty acids thought to fight cancer, enhance the immune system, and prevent both
diabetes and heart disease. To learn more about the health benefits of grass
fed beef, visit
Eatwild.com.
Grass fed beef is leaner than
feedlot beef and some cuts benefit from cooking with moist heat or marinades.

Recipes page for some of our favorite meal ideas.
We’ve added a
