Amber Grassfed Beef is a birth-to-market, family enterprise that works with nature as a partner rather than a force to overcome. We are not certified organic, but only animals that are born and live their entire lives on our pastures, never in confinement, eating their natural diet of grass and legumes are eligible for Amber Grassfed Beef. This is the only way we can guarantee no antibiotics given or fed, no pesticides applied or given, no animal by-products fed, and no growth implants used. A charter member of the American Grassfed Association, we rotational graze to build soil fertility and to give our cattle fresh grass every few days.

Our beef is processed at a small family-owned, USDA-inspected plant whose owner has over 40 years of experience. He ages our beef the maximum time (usually 21 to 28 days) to get maximum tenderness and flavor, and then it is flash frozen. The 100% grassfed beef is sold by whole, half, or quarter (e-mail for details) and by the package when available.

We sell off the farm, pickup at the processing plant in DeKalb, MS, and make deliveries to Ocean Springs, MS and Jackson, MS.

R & F Farm produces true free-range, all naturally raised chickens. They are fed only an all vegetable diet free of any antibiotics or any medications. Our chickens have total access to free range. They are shut up at night in coops to protect them from predators. Before being processed they are fed a mix of wheat and corn to enhance the flavor and texture of the finished product.

Chickens are processed at a USDA inspected facility. We have whole birds from 3.5 to over 6 pounds available at this time. We will have cut up chicken available soon. These are and will be the best chicken you ever tasted. Also coming soon we will have free-range eggs.

You can call or e-mail us your order. We can ship anywhere in the United States.

If you are in the Columbus, MS area, we are open at our house Friday, 1-5 pm; Saturday, 10-5; Sunday, noon-5; and Monday, 9-5. We will be opening a store at our farm this spring and will have organic vegetables available during the growing season. We will also have homemade jams, jellies and salsas. These are the best jams, jellies and salsas made.

We look forward to providing the best chicken available to you and your family in the U.S.
