The Valle Grande Ranch owned by The Quivira Coalition is located 30 miles southeast of Santa Fe on Rowe Mesa. We make every attempt to raise our animals as naturally and as stress free as possible. Stress free animals produce tasty, healthy, lean meat. Pasture raised means they are grazed on open range and are never confined in a feedlot. We move them from pasture to pasture under a carefully planned rotation schedule using low stress management techniques. They are not given hormones or antibiotics.

Why buy local pastured beef?

• Health Benefits
• Supports Local Farm and Ranch Families
• Builds Community
• Preserves Open Space
• Supports Healthy Land, Water and Air and Benefits Wildlife
• Minimizes Food Miles

We offer both whole and half animals. The cost of the animal is $1.50 per pound, live weight (on the hoof). These prices have not increased from last year! Our animals range between 600-800 pounds. For example: a 700 lb. animal will cost you $1,050, plus the cost of transportation and processing (approximately $350) for a total of $1400. Half an animal is approximately half the cost.
After processing, the 700 lb. steer will yield approximately 200-250 pounds of cut and wrapped meat, which makes your $1,400 cost average $5.60 to $7.00 per pound. This is less than your local grocer.

There will be several packaged beef delivery dates from September through October.
