If you’re here, chances are you love beef—and I love that! And if you’re looking for a place to buy local beef, I’ve got you covered! I originally composed this list in May of 2020, at a time when many families would walk into their local grocery store and find shelves barren. I wanted this to serve as a pathway that was able to connect families with a local farmer or rancher; to provide them peace of mind that regardless of the status of their grocery store shelves, they could still find animal protein!
Fast forward a couple of years, store shelves seem to be back to normal. But people still want to connect with their local farmers and ranchers, and still want to buy local beef, and this resource is still here to serve!
One important thing to mention is that not all ranchers have the means or desire to sell directly to consumers, and that’s OK! Take my family for instance…the cattle we sell go through the supply chain and end up as the beef you find in restaurants, school cafeterias, and your local grocery store. The beef you’re buying, whether it comes directly from a ranch or out of the meat case is equal in quality, safety, and nutritional value—the only difference is your preference in how you purchase it. As a rancher, it’s important for me to know that my fellow Americans have easy access to beef products, which is why I put this list of “Where to Buy Local Beef in all 50 States”, together.
This list is inclusive of all beef production methods, so whether you’re looking for something that’s grain-finished, grass-finished, all-natural, hormone-free, or organic, you’ll be able to find it. Many of these families ship their products anywhere in the Lower 48, and those are denoted with a double asterisk (**).
In addition to beef, our family eats quite a bit of pork, so I did take the liberty of noting those direct-to-consumer ranches that also offer pork products. There are also a number of them who raise lambs, and goats, provide dairy products, and heirloom vegetables (although I didn’t denote any products other than pork).
If you’re wondering why you’re seeing the same company listed under a couple of different states, here’s why! If a company does not ship but delivers to a multi-state region, you’ll be able to find them listed in all states they deliver to. Ranch cooperatives (a direct beef company where beef is sold by multiple families under the same name) are also listed in each state they have a ranching family in.
This list is updated regularly, so if you have a direct beef company or buy your meat from a direct beef company, but don’t see it listed, I am happy to include it (the same applies if you find a mistake or broken link)! Please use the contact form and don’t forget to provide all the necessary info—business name, website, city, state, if you sell pork products, and if you ship within the US!

Hi Jessie, thanks for making this list! Awesome! We ship to all 50 states if you don’t mind adding that part. Thanks!
Thank you for this list. We have been using Cross O Meats for about 8 months and are loving the service, brand and MEAT. Who knew meat could taste so good. Now, on top of that we have new friends with huge hearts.
[…] Regardless of our current “want” list, I am really passionate about working towards feeding more cattle out to provide our local friends and families with nutritious and delicious beef for their freezer. As we live in times where our supply chain is uncertain, it is an extremely comforting feeling when you open your freezer door or lid and see a couple hundred pounds of beef in a variety of cuts sitting there. It is an added bonus that you shook the hand of the person who raised the calf. If this idea seems novel to you and you don’t live in the same region as I do, check out Jessie Jarvis’ amazing resource where she has listed where you can buy beef direct in all 50 States. […]
Thank you for providing this valuable information!
