Years ago...
Prior to 2020 we visited Manhattan monthly. We would make stops from the financial district all the way up 125th street, meeting folks and giving them their orders. While it was great to meet face-to-face with customers, the logistics proved a challenge. Keeping to a schedule while driving through the city is tough, and many customers who wanted to buy from us weren't free at a particular time on a particular day, or they happened to live too far for any of our meet-up spots to be convenient.
We Now Deliver to All Manhattan
Because of this we shifted to direct shipping. We now send grass fed beef, pastured organic fed chicken and more straight to our customers' doors. Because we use insulated, recyclable liners and dry ice meat arrives frozen. Shipping directly also means we can deliver weekly instead of once per month. Order by Sunday and you'll receive everything the following Wednesday.
About Cairncrest Farm
Located in the rolling hills of central New York, Cairncrest Farm is a source of grass fed beef and lamb, pastured organic chicken, and pastured pork. We are a real farm that you can visit. In fact, we hope you do visit. So many of the problems with the current food system come from a lack of transparency. Our belief is that openness and clarity are the best correction. Until you can make it up here, we hope you'll look around the website, where there is a lot of information about good farming and why we're passionate about it.
