Shipley Farms
Shipley Farms is a vertically integrated specialty foods business with a mission to leave land, people, and communities better off through food and farming done with excellence and purpose. They are built on a 150-year legacy of family farming, producing pasture-raised, Appalachian Grown beef raised with “no shortcuts” – the way they’ve always done it. Seeking $750,000 seed convertible note to fund expansion of meat business. Shipley Farms has growing demand from leading chefs across the Southeast, a premium meat and seafood distributor, and regional groceries.
In 2013, inspired by R.G.’s desire for a new adventure at 101 years old, we ventured out from raising livestock and began producing finished beef – making available to our friends and neighbors the same farm-raised meat we’ve fed our family for years.
Beginning with a commitment to quality, Shipley Farms Signature Beef is free of any added hormones or steroids, to provide you the same safe, clean, and delicious meat that has fed our family for generations. Our beef is never treated with antibiotics except in limited circumstances when medically necessary to treat a temporary illness – just as you do for your children.
Our cattle graze on lush, clover-rich mountain pastures which produces beef with higher levels of nutrients than conventional feedlot beef production. They are supplemented with a vegetable based feed and dry aged for the best flavor, texture, tenderness, and marbling.
