A letter to our wonderful LeftCoast GrassFed customers ~ We will be at the Downtown Santa Cruz Farmer's Market and the Westside Santa Cruz Farmer's Market through February 15th - changes are on the horizon. Due to a renewed focus on catalyzing and growing a vibrant marketplace for regenerative food at the institution-level, we have decided to discontinue selling our beef at farmer’s markets. Instead, we will be focusing on getting wholesome, nutrient-dense food grown by California farmers and ranchers into local schools, hospitals, and available to other big buyers. By doing this we hope to broaden interest in other regenerative meat producers in California. Since 2010, we’ve had the goal of sharing our 100% grass-fed beef alongside our mission to advance awareness of climate-smart, regenerative agriculture, and passion for healthy food with our farmer’s market customers. We could not be more thankful for the interest and support you have shown us. We look back on the decade with full hearts and cherish the time we have spent with you. Many of you have become avid customers, visited the ranch, and shared our story amongst your peers - and for that, we are incredibly grateful. In our absence, we hope you will continue to support your local farmer’s markets and seek out regeneratively grown foods whenever possible. We also encourage you to learn more about and support the attached list of other local Northern California meat producers that are working hard to bring their customers the best regenerative meat they can. LeftCoast GrassFed will also continue to support our local community through limited online sales, The Sunshine Cafe and the Pescadero Grown Farmer’s Market. For customers wanting additional information about the upcoming changes and those interested in buying bulk boxes (still available online), please reach out to us at www.leftcoastgrassfed.com/contact-us/.

Braised TomKat Ranch brisket in porter... cheers to the holidays.

Happy Holidays from the TomKat Ranch team!

Soil sampling takes a team - pictured are TomKat Ranch apprentices Andrea Hatsukami, Marianna Zavala, and Rafael Miramontes assisting Ford Smith of Regenerative Land Solutions with collecting samples from monitoring points across the ranch. The complexity and variability in our soils is something we are constantly learning more about, and as our knowledge evolves, so do our practices. #healthysoils
