Far Away Farm's central location is only 1.2 miles from the Country Corner. The 48 acre farm located there is home to Hereford cattle, Boer goats, chickens and hogs all raised naturally for the consumer. From the day an animal comes to the farm to the day it is harvested we strive to raise them in the best environment and feed as much grass as possible. Far Away Farm has a branch farm in Elverson. Here we graze cow-calf pairs and steer during the summer. After the goats kid out in the spring this farm becomes their home. At this 100 acre farm corn, soybeans, wheat and alfalfa is grown and used for feeding the animals on both farms.

Understanding how beef pricing works · Quarter
Unlike grocery store beef (priced by the package), farm-direct beef is sold by the share - typically quarter, half, or whole cow. The final price depends on the animal's size and your custom cut choices. This might feel unfamiliar at first, but it's how you get the freshest, highest-quality beef at the best value.
Quarter: $10.00 each
A single fixed price for the entire share. Simple and predictable - you know exactly what you'll pay regardless of final weight.
e.g., Quarter = $1,100 flat, includes all cuts.

Common questions about buying beef direct from the farm
Plan for about 1 cubic foot of freezer space per 15-20 pounds of packaged beef. A quarter cow (typically 100-130 lbs packaged) needs 5-7 cubic feet — about half a standard chest freezer. A half cow needs 10-14 cubic feet, and a whole cow needs a dedicated 15-20+ cubic foot freezer.
Properly vacuum-sealed and frozen beef maintains peak quality for 12-18 months. Ground beef is best used within 4-6 months for optimal taste. Store at 0°F (-18°C) or below. Once thawed, cook within 3-5 days and never refreeze raw thawed meat.
A deposit holds your spot and is applied toward your final payment. Deposits are non-refundable. The amount varies by farm and product. Contact the farm directly with questions before you reserve.
Only for a half or a whole share. After placing your deposit, you'll receive a "cut sheet" where you specify steak thickness, package sizes, soup bones, organs, and more. The processor follows your instructions. Quarter shares typically use a standard cut plan set by the farm or processor.
The final payment is typically due 5-7 days before your scheduled pickup date. The farm will send you an invoice with the exact amount once the final weight is determined after processing. Payment methods vary by farm.
This farm offers pickup only. You'll coordinate a pickup time directly with the farm once your beef is ready. They'll provide the exact location and any instructions.
Each farm sets the deposit for each product. It is applied toward your final payment. Check the product details above for the amount due today.
That's expected! Animal sizes vary naturally. Your final price is based on actual weight, not the estimate. If it's lower, you pay less. If higher, you pay a bit more. Typically the variance is 10-15% from estimates. Your deposit amount stays the same regardless.
