I wanted to thank you for providing my family with an absolutely delicious turkey for Thanksgiving. The quality was fantastic. Every bit of the turkey was moist and very flavorful. None of it was wasted! I have had many other "free range" turkeys before, but this was the best I have every tasted! The quality of all your food has been exceptional. I have not been disappointed with any of our purchases yet. My family and I are truly blessed to have discovered Cool Springs Ranch. We are extremely grateful that you are willing to provide us with food the way it should be. Keep up the great work!

I just have a quick question about the beef, I know it is grass fed but is it grain finished? I know some farmers claim it is grass fed but then finish them off with grain. Do your cattle eat grass for their lifetime or do you finish feeding them with grain?
(NO Grain finishing here...Grassfed to the end!)
Not sure if you remember me, but I placed an order with you just week or so ago and wanted to let you know how amazing (and I mean amazing!) all of the meat has been thus far and what a blessing it is to have found your ranch! So just a little thank you of appreciation for what you and your family do!
I have been feeding my family meats exclusively from Cool Springs Ranch for several years and have always been happy with them by just cooking them generally "lower and slower." But now that I'm cooking from Shannon Hayes' cookbooks it's like a Renaissance in my kitchen! Shannon gives you exact, step-by-step instructions that make all the difference and make the same meat go from really good to rock-your-world good. I am so inspired I now own three of her cookbooks and we've never eaten better. My husband has been saying things like, "Any chef in a good restaurant would be happy to have this on his/her menu" while pointing at his dinner plate. :) I did her "Best Indoor Steak" a few weeks ago and it was hands-down the best steak I have ever eaten. It was all the real beef flavour from Janeen and Sam's skillful grass management + very specific cooking instructions. I have been cooking steaks for years and never ended up with a steak that good. I highly recommend Shannon Hayes' cookbooks to all my fellow grass-fed cooks.

Just want to tell you that the chicken and eggs that I got from you (first time customer) are delicious and everyone who got a taste loves them. A big difference from store bought! Thanks for filling that need for 'real' food.

The chicken we had, beer can roasted as described on your website, was the best chicken meat Michael and I have tasted since probably 10 years. We are both excited to try our pork, and next time getting some beef to see that difference too. The eggs remind me of my grandmothers chicken eggs, and transport me back home for a minute, which I can't thank you enough for. One last note on the milk, the best coffee I had in a long time =).
Thank you for what you do, and that you share your "food" with us.
I will be ordering as long as there is meet to be ordered. If you have enough capacity for some more meat lovers I can certainly spread the word, but if you sell out most of the time I will keep my mouth shut and this a secret for now. Let me know.

So, we just tried our first package of Cool Springs breakfast sausages. They were so amazing that I had to send you a quick message to thank you! I have never actually liked breakfast sausage (until now I had only had it from restaurants or purchased at supermarkets) so when I took my first bite this morning I was amazed because it tasted delicious! Just goes to show the world of difference between "real" food and what you purchase at a normal store these days.

Merry Christmas to you and your family, Janeen!
When I reflect back upon this year, I like to think of my trip to your farm in Endeavour as one of my favourite memories of 2011 :)

Janeen and Cool Springs Team!! I love the food! I made my daughter some home made "chicken nuggets" yesterday and wow...I really have no idea how that other maker of them makes any money, there is no comparison. Its even better than I remembered. Thanks for raising animals in a natural way.
On a side note, my sister, who picked up the meat, said there was a nice long line so yeah, that's great for you guys!

It seems that the more grass those cows get to eat, the more delicious our cats think the milk is!! They say YUM YUM!

We had some pork chops for supper the first night and they were fabulous! I am glad I found cool springs ranch.
(later) You are going to laugh, my husband and I got into a tiff over meat last night. I told him the rest of the roast was for lunch or supper today and he was pretty upset because he was enjoying the roast so much. I lost the argument and (between his extra helpings last night and what he ate for breakfast today) there is no roast left for today. He said we should order another half or maybe a whole pork.

Good day all. I'd like to compliment you on some pork well-raised!! We placed an order for last month and it was fantastic, The bacon brought back some memories of my childhood in the country for sure!!. I'm sure we'll be ordering again for June.

I just had to say...thanks to your amazing dedication and commitment to healthy food, we had one of the most amazing breakfasts the other day. We haven't eaten bacon in over 4 years, staying well away from sodium nitrites. The smell that filled our home on Sunday morning as a package of Cool Springs Ranch's finest sizzled and popped away on the stove top....AMAZING! And just to make it last, I reserved the bacon fat and added it to everything I made for the rest of the day. To say the very least, we felt as if we were feasting like royalty and my kids were ECSTATIC (not to mention my husband and myself)! Anyhow, a huge thank you for all your efforts and food passions. It is Greatly appreciated!

My daughter in law really likes the chicken feet we bought her, she how big they are. The Chinese have got to be the biggest consumers of chicken feet in Canada. Our pasteured pork has way more taste than any factory hog we have eaten and I noticed the roast we cooked was quite dense compared to again factory pork.

This second order of pork is just as fabulous as the first. The side pork is soooo good - in fact I think I like it better than bacon. And a single package of chicken breasts lasted the two of us for three meals - try that with store-bought chicken!

I just bought from you for the first time this past weekend. I was nearly a vegetarian....completely grossed out my meat! I have already cooked some ground beef, and I have to tell you, it was delicious. Any ground beef I have purchased from the stores has had a horrible smell to it when it is cooking. Not so with your stuff, and so little fat. I will be roasting a chicken tomorrow.
Keep up the good work.......I am so glad to have quality, healthy meats to serve to my growing daughter (and us too)!

What a wonderful turkey you sent me. It was the best ever,moist, flavourful, tender, but not that oozy gelatinous sort of tenderthat industrial turkeys get. The only fat I got in the pan was the oliveoil I basted her with, but she was just succulent and gorgeous. You seem to have perfected the artform that is raising turkeys. Congratulations!
Please put me on the list of folks to tell next time you have a harvestday. Thank you for making my Thanksgiving feast sumptuous.

I just want to say that the bar has been permantely raised since Thanksgiving - I will never buy another store turkey again! The dark meat was really good but not appreciatively different ...but the breast meat... it was absolutely fabulous!! Everyone agreed that they had never ate turkey breast meat that was that juicy, moist and delicious! I don't know if it was the Free-Range factor or the Fresh factor - maybe a combination! Please mark us down for 4 more at Christmas - everyone wants one!
