Direct Marketing of your meats REQUIRE you to have your livestock processed under USDA Inspection.  If you wish to offer your meats for sale at Farmer's Markets, Certified Roadside Stands, Direct to consumers from your farm, or market to local restaurants you will have to process your livestock under USDA inspection.   I will be offering some additional information on this in the future.  Please check back to our site often for updated information. 

You can contact us via email or phone for information regarding different price structures that are involved in USDA processing. 
For further information on Direct Marketing you may find the following contacts useful.   Also, make sure you scroll down for the available downloads
