The Premium Local Beef Marketplace

Buying local beef made easy.

We make buying beef directly from local ranchers simple. Know exactly where your beef was raised and how it was treated, without the usual requirement of purchasing a whole cow. Our curated beef portions fit in a standard family freezer, opening access to local beef that was once reserved for people with a chest freezer.

The Journey

How It Works

1. Find Your Rancher

Browse local ranchers in our network. Read their story, see their land, and learn exactly how they raise and finish their cattle.

2. Reserve Your Portion

A whole cow is divided into premium portions that can fit in a standard household freezer. Choose from a variety of available portions and reserve your share. No payment until the cow is fully reserved.

3. Premium Processing

Once every portion is reserved, the processing will begin. After dry-aging and premium butchering, your portion is ready to be shipped or picked up!

Truly Local Beef

Beef the way it was meant to be.

Caring for both the rancher and the consumer. Ranch Local gives ranchers the opportunity to sell directly to consumers without taking on additional business operations and expenses. You get transparency, traceability and unparalleled quality.

You will have confidence that your beef was raised with integrity, honoring the well-being of each animal from how they were raised to how they are processed.

Buy truly local beef without the financial or storage commitment of bulk beef. A whole cow is divided into premium portions that can fit in a standard household freezer. Once every portion is reserved, the processing will begin.

In order to honor the animal, rancher, and beef quality, our harvests are limited to small batches. Sign up for our newsletter to be notified when a rancher lists a cow for portion selection.
