Our story
We are a farm family about 85 miles outside of St. Louis, Missouri in the small town of Cuba. In 2018 we started Brush Creek Valley Farms, a direct-to-consumer farm business. It didn’t take long for us to realize how intimidating and inconvenient it was for consumers and retailers to buy directly from the farmer. As the company grew, we began solving problems within the industry to make buying straight from the farm(er) as easy as possible.
We started with a subscription meat box program so our customers are guaranteed to receive top-quality steak, burger and roast cuts monthly. We also offer individual custom meat boxes.
We package them in insulated boxes so your meat will stay frozen until you get home from work. Anything to make it easier on our customers, we do. If you order a half or whole beef share, we help you customize it to your liking and deliver it to your home at a time that is convenient for you. We even help you load your beef in the freezer. Like I mentioned before, anything to make it easier on our customers, we do.
In the fall of 2020, we opened a USDA processing facility with other farmers in the area. This facility is called Oak Hill Meats and Processing. Now, we not only have better control over our inventory but we can guarantee great packaging and friendly customer service.
Since partnering with Oak Hill Meats and Processing, we now have private labeling capabilities and industry-standard barcodes to make it easier for retailers to buy from local farmers like us.
We love being able to do this for a living, thank you for your support!

Shop NowFrequently Asked Questions
-85/15, It’s important for our customers to know that we do not add outside fat to our meat.
-For bulk beef orders, we prefer someone be available upon delivery.
-For box deliveries, no one needs to be home! Your meat is packaged in an insulated box that will keep the meat frozen for at least 12 hours!
-Yes, but not "grass-finished". They are on fresh pasture every day of their lives and we give them corn, in addition, their last 90-120 days for that perfect Marbling, texture and taste!
-No and yes. "GMOs" are supposed to be scary these days but it's not what it's all cracked up to be. We do feed our beef corn the last 90-120 days in addition to pasture to give them a good variety diet for good flavor/texture. Yellow corn is a GMO food. However, the DNA of the GMO corn does not transfer to the cattle that eat it. The nutritional value, texture and flavor of an animal that eats GMO food is the same of an animal that does not eat GMO food.
-No. We have flirted with the idea of paying money for the certificate to have that fancy label but we haven't taken that leap yet. Maybe in the future to expand our brand we will go down that route. Don't forget, "Organic" does not mean the animals are treated better or have a higher nutritional value. We take great pride in the animals we raise and the land we raise them on.
