Directly From the Source with Elizabeth Thomas on: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Stitcher | Google Podcasts

Today on the show, we visited with Elizabeth Thomas from Thomas Cattle Company about the ins and outs of the direct to consumer business. Elizabeth works on their family operation, run by two generations of livestock producers. She discusses her passion for thoughtful business planning to accomplish great things in an effort to provide quality beef. The personal connections they make marketing beef directly to the customer are a unique joy that continues to boost the industry in a multitude of ways. 

Thomas Cattle raises commercial Angus, and sells direct to consumer beef ¼, ½ or whole shares, as well as small bundles. The Thomas family lives and ranches in Oreana, ID and their ranching history dates back multiple generations. They aim to take care of the land they steward because it is an important part of their success and hope to pass down the ranch to their kids for generations to come.

In this episode we cover: 

• The acknowledgement that the operation has to be a sustainable business if it’s going to support the family legacy for generations to come.
