The Meat Shop of Tacoma Inc.

According to Lee or Anna Markholt - We are the oldest Certified Organic Meat Shop in the State of Washington, offering the largest complete selection of Certified Organic Beef, Pork, Poultry, Chemical Free Cured Meats, Naturally Grown Bison, & Lamb. Organic Beef, Pork and Poultry For people who believe that organically produced food free from chemicals is essential to good health, The Meat Shop of Tacoma offers an assortment of high quality certified organic meat and poultry that combines good taste with good nutrition. Our organic beef are pastured year round and fed certified organic grain to make high quality meat without excessive fat. In order to be certified organic all animals must be certified organic. This means our brood stock must also be certified organic, (our bulls and cows are certified organic.) All animals in the organic food program must be birthed organic. All feed fed to the animals must be certified organic, this includes; pasture, hay and grain. So, our land and everything the cattle are fed is certified organic. Finally, in order to be certified organic animals cannot be fed any animal by products at anytime! This is the law in the organic food program and it is the only way to guard against mad cow disease. Mad Cow disease or BSE is caused by cattle, which are an herbivore, eating bone meal, blood meal or other animal by products. We have been proudly certified in the organic food program since it's inception and the rule of never feeding animal by products has been in place since the beginning of the program!
