Working closely with its partners, Butcher Box sources meat from happy cows (and chickens, pigs, and fishies too!), and ensures its subscribers are met with satisfaction over the quality of the meat. This means all beef is derived from 100% grass-fed, humanely raised cattle that are never given antibiotics or added hormones, free to spend their lives roaming the grassy pastures their entire lives. Heritage-breed pork means hogs are comfortably and humanely raised on pastures or hoop barns, fed an all vegetarian diet, and never given antibiotics or hormones. Free-range organic chicken is USDA certified organic (with certified organic feed), Global Animal Partnership (GAP 3) certified, never crowded into cages, crates, or administered antibiotics or hormones. All seafood is wild-caught, sustainably harvested, contains no additives or artificial coloring, nor are they given antibiotics or added hormones ever.
