Alderspring Ranch Store

Dear Friends:

Snow blanketed the mountains a few mornings ago, and the crispy cool mornings betray the onset of fall. Unfortunately, I think the garden is history with a fairly heavy frost that laid the corn down. But this is the best time to finish grass-fed beef, as the grass becomes sweeter and the beeves appetites increase with the cool days. So look for stuff in the store to more in-stock than ever as mid-October rolls around...

Our selection in the online store is up and down as were are restocking almost weekly trying to keep up with demand. If you do not see what you are looking for, check back in a week--often, it will be restocked. We run no waiting lists; things are first come first served. Keep in mind that our steaks will change over the next month--we will be finishing up the previous year's crop of beeves and shifting into the fastest growing younger beeves. This means a leaner steak with a milder flavor but greater tenderness. This happens every year at about this time. Those of you on our newsletter list will be hearing when our steaks will be back in stock first (you can sign up on the front page of our website).

Enjoy this wonderful Summer!

Glenn and Caryl and girls.

Before you shop, you should visit our FAQ page to learn about portions, packaging, and shipping.

Our next shipping date is September 8.

Please make sure someone will be available to receive the package 2-3 days after the shipping date.

UPS will leave your beef at your door, even if you are not home. You may want to have your beef sent to your place of business. We gladly guarantee your delivery up to the point when it is placed on your doorstep, but if UPS delivers on time and the package is stolen, or you forget to put the meat directly in the freezer, or leave on vacation and it sits for a week, we cannot be responsible. We'll do our best to get your meat to you in top condition; we ask that you partner with us once it hits your doorstep! If you feel your front door is not safe, email us and we'll contact you to arrange a delivery date on which you are sure you will be home.

Place your order by September 7, midnight (EST), to have your order included in the next shipping on September 8

Thanks for being our partners--because without folks like you, we would no longer be ranching. We look forward to hearing from you! Glenn and Caryl Elzinga
