When you order custom beef from Flo-Town Farms, you will have two main costs: the cost of the beef and a processing fee. 1. Initial Deposit and Final Payment: • To secure your order, Flo-Town Farms requires a partial deposit. • The final payment will be due on the day we take your animal to the butcher. This amount will be based on the hanging weight of your animal as reported by the butcher. • You’ll receive an invoice detailing this weight. Your final payment is calculated as follows: Hanging Weight x Cost per lb - Deposit • The cost per pound will be the rate set when you placed your order. While costs may change without notice, we will honor the rate you secured with your deposit. 1. Payment to the Butcher: • When you pick up your beef, you will make a separate payment to the butcher. This will include their rate per pound, plus a slaughter fee. • The butcher's rates can change at any time, as they manage their own business. On average, expect to pay about $0.85 to $0.90 per pound for the hanging weight, plus a $40 slaughter fee for a full beef. 1. Payment Options: • Flo-Town Farms accepts credit cards; however, a 3% merchant fee will apply.

At Flo-Town Farms, it takes about 14 to 18 months to raise cattle to the desired weight, as we do not use any growth hormones. We have a limited number of cattle we can raise each year, and we prioritize our regular customers who typically order around the same time each year. To ensure we have beef available, please visit our product page for available harvest dates. We recommend placing your order at least 8 months in advance. Keep in mind that all harvest dates are filled on a first-come, first-served basis.

At Flo-Town Farms, we do not use steroids, implants, or any growth hormones in our cattle. We allow them to mature naturally to their desired weight. We also avoid using unnecessary antibiotics. If one of our animals becomes ill, their health and comfort are our top priority. We start with homeopathic remedies and only use antibiotics as a last resort.

Our beef is processed at a USDA-inspected facility in Florence, AL. While we can legally ship the meat, we are currently focusing on serving our local community first as we expand our operations. Depending on your location, we may offer home delivery for an additional fee, starting at $100 for deliveries within 30 miles. For distances beyond that, please contact us, and we can assess your request.

These are estimates. If you keep bones for marrow and other organs it could be a little larger. Quarter Beef- 10 Cubic Feet Half Beef- 20 Cubic Feet Whole Beef- 40 Cubic Feet

If you’re interested in other types of meat, please let us know! We can raise and process pork, lamb, and goat at a USDA-inspected facility.

We focus on raising Angus and Charolais cross cattle, known for their gentle demeanor and high yield percentage. Our cattle produce excellent marbling and top-quality primal cuts.

Scottish Highland cattle are the oldest breed of beef cattle, originating in Scotland. While they are known for their quality meat, we do not raise or sell them for that purpose. Instead, these gentle creatures are our beloved pets, and you can even feed them treats! We hope that Coco the Treat Monster will bless us with a tiny furry baby so we can continue to grow our herd.
