OUR STORY

Travis and Sarajane grew up on cattle ranches. From a young age they both had a very strong passion for agriculture. They started dreaming of a way they could be involved in the cattle industry for them and their children.

They have always known that someday they wanted to take their beef all the way to the consumer, but it wasn’t until the start of COVID that Sarajane started “SNOWDEN MEATS” as she worked to provide their local community with CLEAN locally grown beef processed with NO ADDED IN DYES OR ADDITIVES.

They love being apart of this movement where consumers are looking to purchase direct from the rancher that raised it! The consumer gets a SUPERIOR product and the producer gets to cut out some of the middle men! 

They uniquely pasture grain their beef giving it AMAZING FLAVOR while still passing along the benefits of a grass finished products.

They also are very fortunate to partner with an incredible local processor that DRY AGES prior to packaging the product.
