Company description
Heritage Foods is a farm-to-table online butcher and wholesale distributor dedicated to supporting family farmers raising livestock with old-school genetics on pasture. These farmers cannot rely on the commodity market for sales because their animals take too long to grow. At Heritage Foods we purchase all of our turkeys, pigs, lamb, goats, chickens, ducks, and guineas nose-to-tail and sell everything online at HeritageFoods.com to customers in all 50 states as well as 150+ of America's best restaurants from coast-to-coast. Heritage genetics are famous globally for their gastronomic attributes and ours are raised with no antibiotics, using traditional farming methods.
