Crazy how the mighty Flint can change so quickly. This is the highest it has been at our place since the flood of 1994. The river had already receded about 3’ by the time the video was taken. It was a wild 48 hours and we got out fairly well compared to most of you.

Our prayers are going out to all the families and farmers who did not get as lucky as us.

Buy local every chance you can, most of you are no aware of how many of us “competitors” actually work together to make our operations work smoothly. I cannot emphasize how important the community is to making all of us successful.

Sometimes us locals may not be the easiest or the most convenient, but I bet we will do everything we can to make sure you are happy with our product.

The most important ingredients for your life are usually closer than you think. Buy from your neighbors and keep the community strong.

Happy Shop Local Day, everyone! Let's celebrate by supporting our local farmers and growers. When you shop local, you're not only getting fresh, delicious produce, you're also supporting your community. georgiagrown.com/shop/

This warm weather must have everybody’s grill fired up, we can keep anything in stock. Keep the orders coming in!! Thank you for all the support.

Keep shopping local, whether it is us or your neighbor keep all your local farmers busy and out of stock.

Reminder for all my ATL and out of state friends, we ship and deliver. Don’t let a little distance keep you from a full grill.

Q&A with the Gen 5 team. Hope this doesn’t confuse you more. Heather told me it confused her.

What is difference between hanging weight price and packaged meat price??

We have gotten a ton of questions about pricing for 1/4 and 1/2 cows. There are 2 types of pricing, so make sure you are asking the correct questions before you make the big purchase. 1. hanging weight pricing- typically between $4-$6 pound. IMPORTANT- this is the weight of carcass before cutting meat
2. Packaged meat price per pound. This means the animal has been previously butchered and the farmer/butcher has already paid the relevant fees and picked up the meat. At the time of writing the post I have seen as low as $6 and up to $12.

Example- 700 # hanging weight typically yeilds between 400-450 # of packaged meat. Facebook police leave me alone there are a ton of factors.

So $5/pound hanging weight x700 = $3500 + butcher fees. This is equivalent to $8.75 packaged weight per pound .

400 x $8/pound packaged meat= $3200

Quality of the packaging (vacuum sealed vs paper wrapped) makes a huge difference in longevity in your freezer.

The more you know!!

One of the many benefits of having access to the cooler at Gen 5, we cut some 2” Ribeyes for our “camping” meal in the infield this weekend. Typical men, we didnt pack any sides. Caveman style. Austin Chandler Marie Greene Broder
