For centuries people have taken animals to slaughter in the autumn (when the grasses stop growing) and, through salting, curing and freezing, allowed that meat to provide for the family throughout the winter. It’s best for us, as farmers, to not have to carry animals through the winter and simultaneously provide the best value for you.
