Straight-to-the-point training written by someone who’s lived it —decades in meat & feed production, FSMA, FDA, HACCP, SQF, the whole alphabet soup.
📌 Topics include:
How to improve transparency & documentation
Animal welfare and handling best practices
Pre-harvest food safety + environmental controls
Labeling, traceability, and regulatory compliance
Packaging, storage, and direct-to-consumer law
How to prepare for an audit like a grown adult, not a panicked gremlin
Marketing without BS: telling your story with truth and data
If you raise it, we’ll help you explain it — clearly.
Because most people have never seen a carcass rail, a grazing rotation plan, or a feed tag.
Here, you’ll find:
How beef is raised start-to-finish (the real version, not TikTok fear videos)
What labels actually mean — grass-fed, organic, natural, antibiotic-free, etc.
Cuts, cooking, pricing, and how to buy a half/whole animal with confidence
How feed, genetics, and environment affect flavor and nutrition
Seasonal buying guides and budget planning
The difference between marketing language and scientific reality
The goal: informed consumers who buy local on purpose — not out of guilt or trend.
