🐓 Meet Casey Acres!

Located in Tipton, Michigan, Casey Acres raises poultry in small batches on pasture, with a mission to produce wholesome food while caring for the land and animals in their care.

Pasture-raised poultry is one piece of a more thoughtful food system—one that makes room for natural animal behaviors, responsible land stewardship, and small farms serving their local communities.

Big news for local farmers:

Damian's Craft Meats is moving forward as Washtenaw County's first new USDA-inspected processing facility in more than a decade, set to open in Manchester in spring 2027. It's a multi-species plant — beef, hogs, sheep, and goats — with a boutique retail shop attached, built to solve a real problem: small and mid-sized farms have had to drive hours just to get animals processed. More local processing capacity is good news for the farmers we all rely on, including the ones we work with. We'll be keeping an eye on this one.

A few storage basics that make a real difference: ground meat keeps well in the freezer for about 4 months, steaks and chops for 6–12, and roasts even longer when they're wrapped tight. The safest way to thaw anything is in the fridge — give it a day or two depending on size. In a hurry? A sealed bag in cold water works too.
