Peterson Craft Meats is family owned and has been farming the fertile St. Croix Valley for five generations. This remains their No. 1 goal today: farming together as they pass down the heritage and knowledge base to the next generation. They raise and market heritage-bred livestock with a focus on quality, animal care and environmental stewardship. They believe in raising livestock as nature intended, taking what the land gives while not taking it for granted. They aim to build the soils of the valley with organic matter and recycle nutrients through crop rotation and rotational grazing.
