Can you believe we are well into 2016 already?
Did you set any new year's resolutions or sit back and evaluate your goals and plans for this year? The team at Vibrant Farms spent January doing just this!
The past year was busy and we expanded our business by offering several healthy options to our customers - both pastured/grass fed meats and also free-run poultry raised with lots of space to roam inside the barn. What did we learn from 2015?
We determined that it's time in 2016 to return to our roots - we want to be your source for ONLY pastured/grass fed meats. So this year we will NOT be offering free-run poultry as we
feel that our customers are looking for birds that have had the happiest, healthiest life which includes lots of outdoor sunshine, bugs and grass. That is not to say that free-run raised birds are not healthy, it's just that customers have many options to find birds raised that way at other local farms. t's important to us for our customers to KNOW 100% that ALL of the meats they purchase through Vibrant Farms are pastured/grass fed &
raised on organic non-GMO grasses (beef) and feed (poultry).
In saying that, we do have an inventory of free-run chickens & turkeys that were raised through the colder
months at the end of 2015 that we are selling just through the winter here. Once that inventory is sold out, that will be the end of free-run birds for Vibrant Farms. Check below for awesome special pricing!
Another focus for 2016 for Vibrant Farms is to continue to offer our meats through wholesale to various local stores & distributors. Our focus is not on retail and therefore will be scaling back on mini orders for individual cuts here and there. Our fantastic partners such as Bailey's
Local Foods offer our meats at retail pricing and orders can be conveniently picked up in Waterloo. We also offer online ordering through our website that can be picked up at Sage Naturopathic Clinic (585 Queen St. S., Kitchener). We are gearing up to also offer 2-3 smaller variety meat boxes (poultry, pork & beef) for those with
smaller freezer capacity & budget. Customers can still pick up orders at the farm - variety boxes and minimum larger bulk freezer orders.
Taking time to reflect on the past
can help you GROW into the future and re-focus on your values. Our values continue to be to offer sustainable organic grass fed meats fed only organic non-GMO grasses/feed. In future there will be no doubt that you are accessing some of the healthiest, "cleanest", most nutrient-dense meat in the Region!
