Dierks Farms Grass Fed Beef

Dierks Farms Grass Fed Beef is a family-run operation in Ava, Illinois, with more than a century of heritage raising 100% grass-fed and grass-finished beef—no grain, no antibiotics, no steroids. Their focus is on whole-animal orders (quarters, halves, wholes) delivered locally or shipped within a broad radius, giving consumers direct access to clean-raised meat in bulk. While they do not operate as a traditional retail butcher shop with daily walk-in traffic, their online ordering system and delivery model make them highly relevant for consumers looking to stock their freezer and establish a long-term supply of premium beef. The farm emphasizes transparency in animal care, pasture-based systems, and controlling their product from birth to delivery so customers know exactly what they’re getting.
