Golden Beef

Golden Beef is a premium beef product produced by a cooperative of dedicated farmers in the Temiskaming and Cochrane area. Golden Beef cattle are raised only on pasture, hay and silage resulting in a very lean and healthier beef that has increased levels of B12. No antibiotics or growth promoting hormones are used. Come out and try this amazing, locally produced beef!

Pasture Hill Farms

Pasture Hill Farm is a family run sheep farm, located outside of New Liskeard in the Little Claybelt area. Jim Johnston and Wanda Cook's philosophy is to use grazing animals to harvest solar energy (sunshine) by converting grass into meat. Using their sheep to do what they do best , on pasture, Jim & Wanda are able to minimize their use of machinery, fuel, fertilizer, pesticides and antibiotics. Come taste the sunshine in their delicious lamb!

Soutar Highlands Farm

They have adopted a Nature Balanced approach to raising their vegetable crops that is free of chemical fertilizers and pesticides.
