ONLY THE BEST SINCE 1888

A FIFTH GENERATION
FAMILY FARM

It all began in Fairbury, Illinois in 1888 when our great grandfather Sam Slagel purchased the original farm grounds. 5 generations later, our family now runs a small, diversified farm raising livestock and focusing on high-quality meats rather than mass production.

This all-natural and hands-on approach allows us to control every aspect of the operation – from breeding and genetics to the feed rations we give to the livestock. Continuing our commitment to quality, we’ve created partnerships with chefs across the Midwest, ensuring that our natural and hormone-free meats reach those looking for the best ingredients that are ethically sourced.
