Black Angus cattle grazing the pasture at sunset in Keymar, Maryland

Your new go-to farm

Food grown next door.

We're a small family farm on Sixes Bridge Road in Keymar, Maryland. By keeping our cattle on pasture year-round, we're able to provide 100% grass-fed beef to families in Frederick and Carroll Counties without any pesticides or hormones.

How it started

Bill started raising cattle here in 2018 with a simple goal: put fresh, local beef on the tables of our community.

As a first-generation farmer. The pastures, the herd, and the way we do things were all built from the ground up, by someone who genuinely loves working the land and caring for the animals.

How we're raised

Our cattle are 100% grass-fed and grass-finished.

No grain. No feedlots. No hormones.

We work with Creation rather than against it, raising our animals in a way that lets both the cattle and the pasture thrive. Healthy grass makes healthy cattle, and healthy cattle put more back into the soil. It's a cycle that only works if you're patient. That's the difference between our beef and what's sitting in the grocery store.

All of our beef is processed locally at a USDA-certified processor and comes to you vacuum-sealed and frozen, ready for the freezer.
