Reserve your beef
CA5 sells beef by the half or the whole. Fill out this short form and Aspen will get back to you.
Beef is priced by hanging weight plus butcher fees, so your exact total depends on the size of your animal. Have a special request? Add it to the form or contact Aspen.
How ordering works
Three steps from reserving your beef to filling your freezer. No account to set up, and nothing to pay when you send the form.
Send the form
Pick a half or a whole, choose local pickup or shipping, and leave your contact details so Aspen can reach you about your order.
Aspen gets in touch
Aspen will confirm your order and go over pricing and timing. Your beef is ready when your animal is, and we'll reach out when your animal goes to the butcher.
Get your final price
Once the hanging weight is in, Aspen lets you know your total and how to pay, and we'll set up getting your beef to you.

How pricing works
Final price = hanging weight pricing + butcher fees.
