I’ve never seen Brian put more heart, thought, time, stress, and paperwork (oh the paperwork!!) into anything like he has the past two years to design, build and start operating our on-ranch USDA certified harvest facility. We’ve been officially operating for about three weeks and had our first harvest date for another ranching family last week. So much goes into this process every single time, for every animal – to complete the California Dept of Food & Agriculture’s brand inspection, the USDA and FSIS (Food Safety Inspection Service) in-person and extensive oversight on everything from checking sanitization, temperatures, pre-mortem inspection, harvest procedure, post-mortem inspection and organ inspection – as well as humane animal handling and just making sure it’s all done in the best manner possible for the livestock and for a quality end product. This has been no easy feat. But Brian doesn’t do anything he’s not proud of. And we were both so proud to be able to harvest, dry-age, butcher and package beef for the first of many other ranchers doing the same thing we do – where attention to detail and a great end product matters! @rockinghcattleco @high_noon_beef_co thanks for trusting us with your beef! @m5entrepreneurs
