From Our Farm to Your Freezer: How Local Meat Supports Local People

At Lee Farms, we’ve been caring for the land and feeding families in the Willamette Valley since 1869. What started as a small homestead has grown into a 7th-generation farm rooted in tradition, hard work, and community. Raising beef isn’t just another part of our farm. It’s a way of honoring that generational legacy while providing something meaningful for today’s families.

When you buy local meat from Lee Farms, you’re not just buying food. You’re becoming part of a story that stretches across generations and continues to grow right here in Oregon.

Why Local Beef Matters

We raise Charolais and Black Angus cattle with care and intention. Our animals are pasture-raised through sustainable farming practices and treated with nothing but respect and appreciation. That kind of attention shows up in the flavor, tenderness, and quality of the beef you bring home from our farm.

But choosing local is about more than just taste. It’s also about trust. When you buy beef from our farm, you know exactly where your food comes from, how it was raised, and who raised it. That kind of connection doesn’t happen when you buy beef from the grocery store.

Strengthening the Local Community

Every time you choose Lee Farms beef, your dollars stay in the community. You’re supporting farm jobs, local businesses, and the local economy that keeps towns like Tualatin thriving. Farming has always been about more than what’s on the plate. It’s about building strong, resilient communities where neighbors help neighbors. It’s why we do what we do. Because good food brings people together.

From Weeknight Meals to Family Traditions

One of our favorite parts of farming is knowing that the beef we raise makes its way to tables across Oregon. From a simple weeknight skillet of ground beef to a celebratory prime rib roast, these meals become memories. We’ve always believed that food is more than nourishment–it’s connection. The heart of what we do is helping families create moments around the table with food raised responsibly, right here at home.
