Welcome to Douglas Farms!

We are a small, 10 acre farm, outside of Selah, WA.
Our farm is owned, run, and managed by our family of six. We have been selling our meat to the public for around 7 years.
While we are not certified organic, we raise our animals in a way that is sustainable. We seek ways to build up our mini eco-system and encourage a diversity of species, as would be found in nature. Our sheep, cattle, and pigs are raised without antibiotics or hormones on grass that is free from synthetic additives or fertilizers. That tells you what won't be in your meat.

Our cattle and sheep are raised in the sunshine, exclusively on grass. The pigs feed on grass too, in a natural outdoor environment, but are fed a grain based diet because they are not ruminants and thus unable to convert grass into protein. That tells you what will be in your meat. Meat from grassfed animals is nutritionally different from animals raised conventionally. On our website we've included some of the health benefits, but you can also find many more at www.westonaprice.org and www.eatwild.com.

We rotate our animals through smaller pieces of pasture called paddocks. This keeps grass quality high so they finish at a younger age with more tender, delicious meat.

Another difference from grocery store meat is that our animals are slaughtered here on our farm without any anxiety about them. Research has shown this is one of the key factors in producing naturally tender meat.
One thing we enjoy about selling meat directly to our customers is getting to interact with them – answering questions about raising grassfed animals, the benefits of eating grassfed meat, and even sharing recipes. We also enjoy hearing how they are enjoying the meat we have worked hard to raise.

Here's what some of our customers had to say:
"Hi Tabi, I just wanted to tell you how much we are enjoying the meat! It is so good I will have a hard time keeping my husband out of it so it will last all winter! Thank you again and you will be hearing from us again I am sure." – Yakima, WA
"Your meat is excellent! We will take much more than that (double), to share with some of our kids who can't find any locally. I need more of your business cards because I am always giving people your info who ask where we got our wonderful meat!" – Goldendale, WA
"We have really enjoyed the beef. Have had a few roasts...love ....and
hamburger...love." – Freeland,WA
