| VENDOR HIGHLIGHT: Martson Farm
Rick Martson is a full-time Scottish Highland Cattle farmer and meat seller in Molalla, Oregon. A now retired trial attorney, Rick first discovered the beauty of the Highland breed while traveling and attending school in Scotland.
Martson Farm raises their herd of Scottish Highland Cattle naturally, just as they have been raised over the centuries in Scotland – exclusively on grass, brush, and hay. This allows them to develop the lean, naturally tender and flavorful meat the breed is famous for.
“We never use sub therapeutic antibiotics or hormones on our herd. If you are looking for a wholesome, delicious alternative to commodity beef sold in grocery stores, we offer our grass fed/grass finished meat in a variety of ways. And we deliver for free within 50 miles of the farm.”
Nutritional Benefits: Due to the traditional raising methods of Highland Cattle, this grass-fed beef is more nutrient rich and healthier than typical commercial beef and other meats.
Highland Cattle History: Highland cattle are the oldest registered breed in the world. Hailing from the rich heritage of Scotland, their history is steeped in time honored traditions.
Martson Farm also offers a unique CSA (community supported agriculture) share, offering options to work with household’s budgets. Click their link here for all the details, pricing and how to get started as a subscriber CSA l Grass Fed Beef l Portland, Oregon (martsonfarm.com)
