Local Meat

One could get quite a few meals from our Meat Department's vast selection of locally raised meats. Here are a few to try:


Bowman and Landes Turkey
Locally raised free-roaming turkeys from New Carlisle.

DLM Fresh Turkey
These turkeys are raised especially for DLM by Bowman and Landes Farm in New Carlisle. Guaranteed to be free roaming; raised without antibiotics, hormones, or growth stimulants; and vegetarian fed — with no animal by-products in the feed.

Hill Family Farm
Ed Hill of Xenia researched how to raise a bird that would be prized for its moist, large breasts with the flavor of "way back when..." as a result, Hill's free-roaming chickens are raised on a diet free of antibiotics and animal by-products.

Two Old Hens and Their Chicks
Their chickens, raised on a farm near Piqua, are fed an all-organic diet with no added hormones or antibiotics.

Vista Grand Ranch
Buffalo raised along the Ohio River in New Richmond.
