Farm Details
We proudly partner with over 60 of the best small-scale regenerative farms on the East Coast. These independent farms let their animals roam freely on pasture as long as the seasons allow, using practices like rotational grazing to enrich the soil. Every farm meets our rigorous standards, and we visit regularly to ensure transparency, quality, and shared values.

“We have been Walden customers for many years. We believe that if we are going to eat meat, grass-fed, kindly raised animals are the way. But we’ve discovered that this is the most delicious meat out there!”
– Amanda S.
