Circle D Ranch Food Production Facility
Butcher Facility
In June 2013 Circle D Ranch opened a butcher and cooling facility on site. As of 2018, we now have a commercial kitchen in addition to the other facilities. This inspected facility meets all the environmental health requirements so that we can provide catering for events and also continue to provide meat products for restaurants, grocery stores, etc. as well as our valued farm gate customers.
We also make the cooler and butchering facility available to other farmers and/or hunters to rent to cool/hang their animals, and to cut and wrap their meat. As certain times of the year are particularly busy, one needs to book in advance.
Commercial Kitchen
The facility can be rented for use as a commercial kitchen. There is a walk-in cooler, triple sinks with high-pressure sprayer, 4-burner stove with large oven, extensive stainless steel countertops for food preparation. Contact us for rates and availability.

1 Beef hanging per week $150
