North Mountain Pastures is a small family farm dedicated to producing great food using ecologically sound production practices. We farm on 84 acres in Perry County, Pennsylvania, in a way that heals the land, nourishes people, and treats animals with respect. This means animals are naturally raised outdoors, on grass or in carefully managed woodlots, and fed only non-GMO grain. We don’t use hormones, antibiotics, or other chemicals to medicate livestock.
Worried you don't know how to cook? Here's the thing, the quality of your ingredients is sort of like a cheat code for cooking. Your dish is only as good as your weakest ingredient. Grab some fresh produce, a good NMP sausage, and some potatoes, rice or polenta...you got a meal!
The variety of meet offered in the large CAS share is great. The quality is as good as always. The different cuts also challenge me to find new recipes. Very enjoyable. Highly recommend.
- We have noticed that a few items arrive partially thawed. This is especially true in the summer months when sausages, bacon and the pork kabobs were totally thawed. - It would be helpful to include cooking tips and/or alternate names for some of the cuts. It can be hard to figure out how to cook them and we've found that they don't always respond the way we expect. - It would be great to limit the size of cuts to 1.5-2lbs, our family of 4 has a hard time getting through 3lbs of meat.
Hey Claudia, thanks for the feedback. I'll add notes to your order so we pack smaller cuts for your family. Let us know via email if things arrive frozen, packaging and number of gel packs is still on our learning list, in the summer we're trying to over-gel if anything. Thanks again!
Amazing! Every time we eat from North Mountain Pastures, we can taste the difference in the quality of the meat and humane treatment of the animal. Sincerely, A life long patron
