Welcome to the Glatt Kosher Beef Section of Leafy Creek Farm!




INFLATION WARNING! We regret to announce that we had to raise our prices when we processed at the end of September 2024. This was forced by two factors: fewer cattle than usual were available for kosher slaughter as we recover from the drought of 2021-2023, since raising a grassfed beef animal to slaughter weight takes about 2.5 years but the costs of kosher supervision are fixed and have to be apportioned over the pounds of meat harvested. And, general inflation since 2021 of more than 35% has increased our processing costs and market prices for cattle. (We harvest only cattle we raise, but we could sell them instead of harvesting them and we have to consider that opportunity cost when setting prices for our meat.) We did not raise prices that much, but we did have to do something. We appreciate your understanding of the current economic situation. For those who are interested, we identified two online sources of beef that is similar to ours, and set our prices to be slightly less than they were charging. We hope you will agree that that is a fair way to set prices. (September 24, 2024)

We are a small family-owned and operated farm in Central Texas that raises certified organic, certified grassfed beef cattle for direct sale to consumers as well as certified organic hay for those who need it.
We have been Certified Organic by Natures International for crops since 2015 and for livestock born after mid-March 2018. This means that we do not use growth or other hormones, antibiotics, pesticides, GMO plants, and a wide range of other practices that are thought to diminish the wholesomeness of food. We were certified by the Real Organic Project in June 2020. This means that we are located in the United States, are not a large corporation gaming the National Organic Program, and are what you are probably looking for: a small family-run farm that does things the right way.
We are also certified Certified 100% Grass-fed by American Grassfed Association effective 2019. Please note that this certification standard includes rigorous animal welfare requirements, which we meet.
Our kosher meat is supervised by Star K (search for "Leafy Creek Farm").
