Yes, Old Salt sells meat from livestock that are both raised and processed in Montana. Still, there are exceptions.  For example, nearly all ranches that raise poultry on pasture will buy chicks from hatcheries outside of the state before raising them to finish weight on their Montana lands. Also, when not in drought, ranches occasionally will replenish their herds with juveniles sourced from another ranch outside the state (whether replacement breeding stock, calves, yearlings, etc.). All such animals may end up as part of the Old Salt meat program. Old Salt meat is processed at our meat cutting facility at 2840 Bozeman Avenue in Helena, MT. There is one nuance. We are currently working to establish a slaughter facility in Jefferson county near Helena (expected to be ready in May 2023). In the meantime, we have sent some animals for our initial program to be slaughtered at a reputable USDA facility in Sheridan, WY. These carcasses are then brought back via reefer truck to our facility in Helena for aging, cutting, and packaging.
