Why join a Farmer’s Choice Meat of the Month Club?
Benefit 1 – It’s a Sustainable Model
Most farmers don’t have a hard time selling chicken breasts, bacon, and steaks. The challenge is selling the less popular cuts of meat; chicken drumsticks, ground pork, stew meat. These proteins are just as delicious and nutritious, but consumers haven’t had as much experience with them so they often opt for what they know.
Why is that a bad thing?
Well, every chicken grown on this farm has 2 breasts, 2 wings, 2 tenders, 2 thighs and 2 legs (drums).
In order for us to continue to farm, we have to sell all of the parts. When you support a “farmer’s choice” subscription, you get lots of those popular cuts that you know and love as well as some that you may not have chosen on your own.
Benefit 2 – Variety is the Spice of life
Letting your farmer choose your cuts inside a meat of the month club allows you to experiment with new recipes and find new favorite meals for you and your family. It also promotes a more well-balanced diet, offering a variety of minerals and macronutrients.
Plus, you can rest assured knowing that the meat you’re eating is of high quality and sustainably raised, so not only are you enjoying delicious food, but doing your part for the planet too!
Benefit 3 – Cost Savings
This model saves you money in 2 ways.
- First, these less popular cuts of meat are cheaper than the “top sellers”. That means more meals for you at a lower price. The more different cuts of meat your farmer can sell, the less she has to charge. Think about it… If you only sell chicken breasts, the cost of those breasts has to cover the entire cost of raising that bird. When you can sell all of the cuts, each piece can be sold at a lower price.
- Secondly, subscribing to a monthly order, it takes the farmer less time to sell their products. Less labor means a lower cost to the customer. It’s a win/win.
Buying in bulk from local farmers can bring significant savings in both money and time.
Most supermarkets and grocery stores buy their meats in bulk from large-scale meat processing facilities that often ship their products from faraway lands, which can take a toll on the meat’s quality and freshness by the time it reaches the consumer.
With a meat of the month club subscription, however, you are guaranteed fresh, locally-sourced meats that are hand-selected by the farmers themselves. This means that you are getting the freshest products at their peak quality every time.
When you buy in bulk inside a meat of the month club, you also avoid the frequent trips to the grocery store, which can be both time-consuming and expensive.
Instead, you can plan ahead and make fewer trips by purchasing a larger quantity of meat from a subscription box or farmer’s market, which means that you can save both time and gas money.
Additionally, buying local meats directly from farmers supports the local economy, which promotes sustainable practices and fosters a closer relationship between farmers and consumers.
