Humanely Raised Meat & Poultry
What We Look For:
- Animals raised by trusted farmers & ranchers
- Farms follow strict diets for animals
- G.A.P. or equivalent animal welfare certification
What We Leave Out:
- Synthetic nitrates or nitrites
- Sorbic acid or propyl gallate
- Added antibiotics or synthetic growth hormones
The meat and poultry we carry come from animals raised by trusted farmers and ranchers. We’re careful about sourcing from farms that follow strict diets for animals (we prohibit the use of animal byproducts, antibiotics, and synthetic growth hormones), and we require Global Animal Partnership’s (G.A.P.’s) 5-Step Animal Welfare Rating or an equivalent certification. The higher the G.A.P. rating, the closer the animal’s environment mimics its natural one. The G.A.P. certified meat and poultry we stock is Step 2 or higher.
