Business Detailed:

Our farm is located on a 267 acre historic estate, Brookside Estate, which dates back to 1789. The farm gained fame in the 18th century raising Merino sheep and later as a breeder of Morgan horses. A working farm is now being re-established on the property, raising Belted Galloway cattle, organic hay, fruits and vegetables, harvesting sap from our sugarbush for maple syrup and honey from beehives.
Our Belted Galloway cattle have outstanding genetics and are available for purchase as breeding stock. We also have "Beltie" meat for sale at the farm and at various summer and winter farmers markets, along with fresh produce, maple syrup and honey.
GRASS-FED "SALAD BAR" BEEF
A Scottish heritage breed of stunning appearance, the Belted Galloway is noted for the healthful and exceptional quality beef it yields - naturally lean, tender, juicy and full of flavor. The multiple healthful benefits include lower total fat, lower saturated fat, higher Omega 3 content, lower ratio of Omega 6 to Omega 3 and 40% less cholesterol than ordinary beef.
We raise our "Belties" on Brookside's own certified organic grass and hay; no hormones, no antibiotics, no pesticides. Studies have shown that beneficial CLA (conjugated linelenic acid) is higher in grass-fed animals than in grain-fed animals. We take care to provide our "Belties" with a pleasant, stress-free environment.
All Brookside "Beltie" beef is USDA inspected. After proper aging for tenderness it is processed into individual cuts that are immediately vacuum packed and frozen to maintain quality. Hambuarger, stew meat, stir-fry, liver, a variety of steaks and roasts, soup bones, brisket, and other beef cuts are available for direct purchase.
