Grassfed Sticker Shock?

Are you a new customer to grassfed, locally sourced meat? Having an issue with sticker shock? It is no secret that clean meat is more expensive than what you may be accustom to. That is where it becomes helpful to know your farmer (that's ME!) because we can help!

OUR TIPS FOR SAVING MONEY WHEN BUYING CLEAN MEAT

Together Farms offers a few ways to save money when buying our "no weird stuff" meat because we know that when you by cut by cut from us it can quickly add up. Instead, use some of these alternative ways to save yourself some money!

  1. Buy In Bulk
  • Buying in bulk saves you money over purchasing by the individual cut and allows you to customize your cuts (i.e. pick thickness, how many items are in a package, etc.). If you are serious about eating healthy, clean, "no weird stuff" meat on a regular basis this is a great way to go.
  • Visit our Bulk Page to see our tips and tricks to get the most out of your bulk purchase.
  1. Purchase A Bundle
  • Our bundles allow you to get a perfect variety of cuts without committing to an entire quarter of an animal. If you are on a budget with limited freezer space but want to test buying in bulk on a smaller scale this is the way to go. It also eliminates all the options that come with Buying in Bulk (if that is something that intimidates you).
  1. Get Our Meat Membership Card
  • Available in $200 and $500 values, the Together Farms Meat Membership Cards will save you 10% to 15% off on your orders of regularly-priced items.
  • How It Works: Say you purchase our $200 Meat Membership Card, you will receive $200 worth of meat but will only pay $180 for it (equaling a 10% discount).You can use as much or as little of the $200 as you'd like during your transaction as you'd like. Every time you purchase meat we will deduct it from your Membership Card balance (which I track for you) and notify you of your remaining balance for future orders. Think of it as a pre-paid debit card.
  1. Buy Ground Beef By the Case
  • Looking only for ground meat? We recommend buying it by the case to secure the best possible price per pound.
  • You can purchase Ground Beef and/or Ground Pork by the case.
  1. Refer Your Friends
  • Once you sign-up for a Together Farms' Farm Store account, you can share your referral link with your friends to get FREE money to use in the farm store.
  • Simply copy your referral link and send it to all your friends telling them how great our products are.
  • Every time a new Farm Store customer uses your referral link for the first time they get $5 to use and you get $10!

CONVENIENCE IS AN ADDED BONUS

With our NEW home delivery options not only is our meat clean and free of "weird stuff," it also is super convenient to get. Simply place your order via our online farm store by midnight on Thursday and receive your products right to your front door by the end of the following week! This weekly delivery option allows you to make Together Farms a simple part of your weekly meal planning.

Off the Hook Fish Sale is LIVE! 🐟

Our 1st Annual Off the Hook Fish Sale is LIVE and it really is Off the Hook!! ⚓It was exactly one year ago today that we announced a new partnership with Bering Bounty and let you know we had finally found some of the best food on the planet: Wild Alaskan fish.plus it's Lentplus a few of us just realized that we've been through 2 false springs already meaning real spring is pert near here and it's time to hurry up and lose some of that winter weight by eating clean high-protein and low fat (halibut).(Although a few others have decided this is the year the sweaters-in-summer fashion look sticks and we're eating all the Sablefish we want.)plus it's time to start getting really serious about Burger Night again so my ability to manage and run big sales like this will end 3/31 and then we'll all be waiting a long while before any more big sales come up. So: Anniversary + Lent + Weight Loss (or Maintenance 😂) + Burger Night is coming (56 days!) = OFF THE HOOK FISH SALE!! We will definitely plan on doing this every March but one thing with the state of Alaska is they are very strict with their quotas in order to ensure sustainability so we never know how much fish Captain Mark will be able to reel in - some of these cuts may not always be available but we are super stoked that right now they all are!!Salmon Lovers Bundle - savings of 27% plus a BONUS 5% + FREE item if you're a subscriber! Includes: King, Sockeye, Coho + Pink Salmon all wild-caught and never-farmed from Alaska's Bering Sea.We have a lot of new people here so we'll do a quick re-introduction.Because I'm constantly keeping an eye out for the best products I can find for you guys I serendipitously stumbled upon Bering Bounty last winter and was soooo excited! I had been looking for a source of good Alaskan fish FOR YEARS but it was either crazy expensive, mostly unavailable or a logistical nightmare. But the coolest thing is that Captain Mark is a Wisconsin-ite with his own small fishing operation (so a ma & pa, like us!).He harvests wild salmon, halibut, and other fish in Alaska’s Bering Sea, which are immediately processed, vacuum-sealed and flash-frozen there and then brought back to his home state so we can all enjoy some of the world's best and cleanest protein!We are his most northern location so we drive to southern WI every other month or so to do our own re-stocking for you guys. Captain Mark & his pet Octopus (not really) battling Alaska's Bering Sea "the cradle of storms" to bring us the healthiest, cleanest and tastiest protein in the world! 🌎(and yes, even better than our 100% grassfed/finished organically raised beef since the best beef still can't beat the Omegas and other nutrients in Salmon and Sablefish.)What's included in the sale In an effort to live up to the name, we have some pretty off the hook deals ranging from a minimum of 10% off to almost 40% off! 😲 Subscribers (free to join, easy to leave) will even get a BONUS 5% off plus a FREE item for life so really it's 15 to nearly 45% off!! No pressure, I often don't make the best decisions with my (+ Andy's 😉) money so I get it (note those percentages listed above 😂) but if you like good fish at all, NOW is the BEST time to stock up and save! Available raw fish portions from Bering Bounty:  King Salmon portionsSockeye Salmon portionsCoho Salmon portionsPink Salmon portionsCod portionsHalibut portionsSablefish portions Like with the beef sale we think the star of the show is going to be the Sampler Bundle and we have 3 sizes to choose from:  1 of each fish (7 portions)2 of each fish4 of each fish: ships for free/reduced, the largest savings of all the deals at 38% off (before subscription savings are added) ✨In addition to the Sampler Bundles we also have the Salmon Lovers Bundle pictured above and a White Fish Lovers bundle which includes:  4 Cod2 Sablefish2 HalibutSave 30%!We even have a Buy 3, Get 1 FREE option for:  CodCohoSablefishKing Salmon CaviarMix and Match all your different favorites to get free/reduced shipping and stock your freezer!  Not only do we have Bering Bounty to bring us the best raw fish, but I also found Alaska Smokehouse so we also have a source of smoked fish!And, guess what? Smoked fish doesn't need refrigeration or special shipping so we even have a few bundles and a lot of products that can be shipped anywhere!!  Right now we only ship our frozen meats throughout the Midwest but smoked & tinned fish doesn't need any special shipping so we even have a few non-perishable bundles, spices, cookbooks and pet treats in our Off the Hook Fish Sale that can be shipped anywhere!For more info on how to do a work-around if our online store tells you we can't deliver to you, see this article. Sorry for the extra step, it's the best our software can offer at the moment and once it's set up, it's super easy! But, wait. There's more!  In addition to the raw fish and smoked fish we included a few more products in our Off the Hook Fish Sale: ButterSalt SeasoningsCookbooksDog & Cat Treats Obviously butter, salt and seasonings need to be included, what fun is fish without those??We are so happy to have also partnered with Nordic Creamery and we LOVE their butters. We just added their Pepper Butter (won the Gold last year 🥇) to our line-up, we'll see how it performs compared to our current best-seller, their Garlic Butter (won the silver last year 🥈). May as well try them all while they are on sale! Salt & seasonings....I mean salt is my favorite so we'll always have fun options there but check out some of our seasonings and sauces if you are ready to experiment and have some fun with all your fish! Scared that you are going to screw it up because you don't really know how to cook fish? 😬We've got cookbooks! And, as usual, we'll include some of our free recipe cards too or check out the fish-specific page on our website for cooking tips (Captain Mark prefers to cook straight from the freezer!) or our Recipe Page. We aren't the only ones that love fish - dogs and cats do too! 😺So we included some fun fishy treats for dogs & cats too, starting at just $2.70 - there's no reason to leave out our best friends! 🐶 We even have fishy-treats for our 4-legged friends!! (Lots more to choose from in the farm store if you can come visit!)I hope you’re as excited about our 1st Annual Off the Hook Fish Sale as I am!If you have any hesitation or questions, simply hit reply and ask away!Your farmer & a-fish-ionado friend, Stephanie Schneider
