Leveldale Beef is offered by the quarters (approx 175-200 lbs.), halves (approx 400 lbs.) and whole (approx 800 lbs.). Your beef may be processed at your choice of local packing facilities in Bloomington, Eureka, Atlanta, Athens, or any other processor of your choice. You may specify the cuts and the steak thickness, as well as packaging size of ground beef. When you order your beef, we will schedule a harvest and arrange for you to pick it up or have it delivered to your chosen packing facility at an additional cost. Beef is priced according to current market prices. Please call for exact pricing.
Leveldale Beef will be available generally in May, June, and July, but other times are available.
Our all-natural beef is harvested at 12-14 months of age, and is corn fed (not grass) and is hormone free. We do not use any antibiotics or growth stimulants. Corn fed beef is generally preferred to grass fed since corn fed beef will generally have more marbling and a much better flavor.
Leveldale cattle are fed on open lots, and no confinement is used. All cattle are raised right here on the farm at Leveldale since we do not sell any outside beef.
Leveldale cattle are fed a total vegetarian diet, just as they should be, with no animal by-products. This all natural diet helps eliminate the potential of a BSE issue (Mad Cow Disease).
If you have never purchased beef direct from the farm, there are an enormous number of processing options. Don’t worry, you can contact us and we will walk you through all the processing options and get everything exactly as you want it. You can design the cuts for steak thickness, lean or highly marbled, and a large variety of cuts and ground beef.

Even if you only buy one quarter, that is still going to be a couple hundred pounds of beef. You will need a deep freezer (the chest type work best) to store it. You don’t want to store it in any self-defrosting freezer as the defrosting process will tend to ruin the beef over time. In a deep freeze however, beef can be stored an enjoyed for 1-2 years.
The time of year will determine how quickly you will receive your order, but even in the optimum circumstances, you will likely be looking at a 3 week wait (which includes aging).
Leveldale farms can provide you with gift certificates for any of our 3 available order sizes. Call for details!
