    HOW THE HECK DOES OUR MEAT CSA WORK? Each month we deliver your pre-paid Meat Share to a pre-determined location at an allocated time. You only need to show up armed with your coolers and cloth bags and pick up your Share. Community Supported Agriculture or CSA is simply a shared commitment between you and your local farmer. As a Shareholder, you provide your farmers with much needed cash upfront and in return they deliver food that is good, clean and fair to you and your family over the course of an agreed upon season.

    Shares in the STODDART FAMILY FARM MEAT CSA are simply based on pounds per month. Shares are sold in 3 and 6-month increments. Each delivery is freshly processed at a licensed provincial abattoir and frozen. All orders include a range of meat, some months may be more beef and pork, other months there may be more lamb and poultry. Each order will be comprised of ground, stew, chops and steaks. Our pasture-raised beef is dry aged for a 21-day period.

    SHARE THE VISION, BUY A SHARE! Join us in our vision to provide clean, sustainable food directly to consumers. The Stoddart Family Farm along with our neighbours believe in a food supply that is transparent and controlled by the people. We will not knowingly contribute to the further degradation and domination of our food supply by corporate giants. To this end, we choose, whenever possible, to grow open-pollinated, heirloom varieties that are in the public domain. Furthermore we adhere to both the letter and the spirit of organic production and strive for the smallest environmental footprint possible. Our animal husbandry is humane and meets the biological needs of the species as naturally as possible.
