Pasture Posts #263 – Spring Chicken Stock Up Event is LIVE!

Here’s the weekly roundup from Watson Farms and your direct connection to your farmer. Enjoy the latest edition of Pasture Posts!

Spring is arriving here at Watson Farms! 🌸

We’ve officially graduated the cattle off hay and back into their warm-weather routine of daily paddock shifts on fresh grass. 🌱 It’s also an exciting time as we’ve welcomed a new group of calves that we’ll be caring for over the next year as they move through our regenerative grazing program.

Meanwhile, our H2A crew is back in full swing—caring for the pigs and baby chicks while building new brooder pens and pasture hoop houses for our upcoming broiler expansion. 🏗️ It’s a season of growth and preparation, which brings us to some big news.

The Spring Chicken Stock Up Event is LIVE! 🍗

Each year, we purposefully plan for a surplus during our growing season. Since we only raise broilers in the warm months to protect the birds and the pastures, we have to stock the freezers heavy enough to last through the winter production gap. ❄️ It’s always a bit of a guessing game, and we would much rather have plenty available for you than run out mid-winter!

As we head toward our first processing dates in late April, that intentional surplus means our freezers are still quite full. To make room for the new season, we are launching our most aggressive chicken sale of the year.

Starting today, you can take advantage of deep discounts both online and in our farm store:

  • Leg Quarters: 40% OFF ($3.59/lb) 🍗
  • Whole Broilers: 30% OFF ($4.89/lb)
  • Boneless Skinless Breasts: 25% OFF ($14.24/lb)
  • Chicken Wings: 30% OFF ($4.68/lb)
  • Chicken Liver: 40% OFF ($3.59/lb)

Stack the Savings with Bundles 📦

If you are looking to truly fill the freezer, our Chicken Bundles are the best way to save. We’ve applied even deeper discounts to these for this event to help us clear the decks for the spring flocks:

This event runs from now through April 5, but with discounts this significant, inventory will move fast. Grab what you need for those spring cookouts and family dinners while supplies last!

Real Chicken from the Hands That Raised It

While it’s easy to find a “pasture-raised” label these days, it’s much harder to find the people actually doing the work. Unlike corporate aggregators who simply manage logistics from a distance, we’re out in the fields every single day—moving hoop houses, tending to the soil, and personally overseeing every bird. Thank you for choosing a direct connection to your food and for sticking with the family that actually has its boots on the ground.

Best,

Matt and the Watson Farms Team

Check out this ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ review from Tim:

“Got our first pasture pick box and we were not disappointed,very high quality meats.The best chicken we’ve ever eaten,actually found out what chicken is supposed to taste like.The steak is the best.Haven’t tried the pork yet but will tonight.The meat might cost a little more the grocery store but it’s worth the price.Would rather spend my money on a local farm than spend money on meats that you have no idea where it comes as we all should. This is only place we’ll buy meat from. The BEST”

We would greatly appreciate it if you would be kind enough to leave us a review.  It helps first-time customers purchase with confidence.

Pasture Posts #262

Here’s the weekly roundup from Watson Farms and your direct connection to your farmer. Enjoy the latest edition of Pasture Posts!

🌿 A Dash of Patience Paid Off: The Cattle are Out!

If you remember from Pasture Posts #260, we were playing a bit of a “waiting game.” We spent time looking over our winter annual pastures—that beautiful mix of ryegrass and triticale—and as much as we (and the cattle) wanted to jump the gun, we had to wait for the ground to be just right to avoid “pugging” and damaging the soil.

The wait is officially over.

The cattle have finally been turned out onto that lush, vibrant green forage, and to say they are enjoying it would be an understatement. There is a certain “spring energy” in the air when the herd hits a fresh, nutrient-dense pasture for the first time after a long winter. We captured some great photos of them soaking up the sun and the ryegrass, which we’ve included below! This high-quality forage is exactly what allows us to produce the 100% grass-fed and finished beef you’ve come to expect from Watson Farms.

🥩 Big News for Beef Lovers: More Consistency, Less Friction

While the cattle are enjoying the new grass, we’ve been working behind the scenes to make sure the experience of getting that beef to your table is better than ever.

We are excited to announce that we are partnering with a new USDA processor for our beef: Marksbury Farms. Marksbury is a family-owned business with a deep-seated desire to help grass-fed beef producers. They are a professional, highly recommended operation with precision equipment that allows us to take a major step forward in our fulfillment process.

The Goal: Moving Toward “By the Piece” Pricing

For years, we’ve sold our “muscle cuts” by the pound. Because every animal is unique, these weights vary, which meant we had to charge a “maximum weight” upfront and then manually send refunds back to you once we weighed your specific order.

To give you an idea of the “back-and-forth” this causes: Over the last year, we have issued thousands of refunds – some small, some large depending on the number of catch weight cuts in each order. While we love getting the price exactly right, that’s a lot of small transactions for you to track and a massive amount of manual labor for our team.

What’s Changing (and What’s Staying the Same)

Thanks to the precision at Marksbury, we are transitioning many of our most popular beef cuts to flat-rate, “by the piece” pricing. 

  • Fixed Pricing: All ground products, most roasts, and our main steaks—including Ribeyes, NY Strips, Filet Mignons, and Sirloins—will be sold by the piece. The price you see on the site is exactly what you pay (once the transition takes place for each item).
  • Catch-Weight: Some specialty or highly variable cuts will still be sold by the pound, but the vast majority of your freezer staples will now be a “one and done” checkout.
  • Lower Upfront Costs: For these new fixed-price items, you’ll likely notice the prices on the website look lower because we no longer have to “estimate high” to cover larger cuts.

A Quick Heads-Up on the Transition

We’ll be rolling this out as our current inventory runs out, so the switch will be staggered. You’ll see the first of these new items—starting with Filet Mignons— hopefully hitting the site around March 6th or 7th.

A note on thickness: To ensure every steak hits that uniform weight for a smoother checkout, you might notice a slight difference in thickness compared to what you’re used to. While our old cuts were often categorized by thickness, these will now be categorized by weight.

Real Beef from Real Farmers

In a world of slick marketing and “meat aggregators” who never actually see a cow, we want to thank you for sticking with the folks who have boots on the ground. We aren’t just an office with a website; we’re out here in the pastures every day, moving fences and checking the herd to ensure you’re getting the very best we have to offer.

We believe this partnership with Marksbury is going to be a huge win for the Watson Farms community, and we can’t wait for you to see the results!

Check out this ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ review from Michael:

“I started getting monthly deliveries about 6 months ago. I had done a-lot of research on Watson Farms, so I knew that they were providing humane and natural conditions for their animals. I also knew that the meat would be nutrient rich and not susceptible to using chemicals or growth hormones to achieve desired end state. The animals are raised and fed naturally. I knew all that going in. I was surprised though by the high quality of the product, not just the quality of the meat (I assumed it would be good), but the packaging, the delivery, the customer service, the communications. They have not made a mistake in any of the orders … Everything is done with high quality. The meat is very well labeled and very well packaged. You can tell it is fresh frozen and the color of the meat is very natural. It looks rich and healthy, unlike the pale meat that you will get at the grocery stores. The chickens are not puffed up with a saline solution. … You can tell that everything is fresh and raised properly. I love this farm and the products they produce. I’m almost afraid to share my thoughts for fear that too many people will sign up and they will have to ration the product. :)”

Pasture Posts #261

Here’s the weekly roundup from Watson Farms and your direct connection to your farmer. Enjoy the latest edition of Pasture Posts!

Hey everyone,

It’s been a record-breaking few weeks here in Lowrys. Our fulfillment team has been very busy trying to keep up with one of the highest volumes of orders we’ve seen in a long time, thanks to our recent event. If you’ve been eyeing those freezer-stockers, don’t wait too long—our Overstock Blowout Sale officially ends tonight at midnight!

Amid all the bustle lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about why we do what we do. You’ve probably noticed that “farm-to-table” has become a big business. Everywhere you look, there’s a new subscription box or a “digital market” promising local food with the click of a button. In many ways, that’s a win—it means more people are waking up to the importance of how their food is raised.

But as these services grow, I think it’s important to talk about what “local” and “direct” really mean to us at Watson Farms.

The Power of a Direct Connection

When you receive a box from us, it isn’t coming from a third-party warehouse or a corporate food hub. It’s coming from a family-run operation. We aren’t just “curating” items to fill a slot in a delivery schedule; we are stewards of the land and the animals.

There is a level of accountability that only exists when the person selling the meat is the same person who checked the fences this morning.

Why We Work with Our Neighbors

While we raise a large portion of our beef right here on our home pastures, keeping up with the support from families across the Eastern US means we also partner with a handful of like-minded producers in our region.

We are very selective about this. These aren’t just “suppliers”—they are neighbors and friends who follow the Watson Farms way:

  • Our Beef is 100% grass-fed and grass-finished (no grain, ever).
  • Daily Rotation (when weather permits)
  • No Feedlots
  • No Hormones
  • No Routine Antibiotics
  • Total Transparency in how every animal is treated.

By working together, we aren’t just filling boxes; we are helping more family farms stay on the land and ensuring that you get a consistent, high-quality product every single time you order.
