The beef and chicken are excellent. I will be ordering again soon.
Farmer Dan and Heartstone Farm deliver first-in-class customer service, communication and, of course, tasty, healthy beef. We're excited to have our freezer stocked with grassfed beef and plan to order more.
I ordered short ribs and they were fantastic. I ordered more shortly after.
This was our first experience with ordering meat online from a farm. I was pleasantly surprised at the entire experience. The oxtails were meaty and fresh. We could definitely taste the quality. We will be ordering again because everything we ordered was delicious. We wasted no time in cooking some home runs.
They were very responsive to our requests and patiently answered all this first-timer’s questions. The meat has been delicious as well. Highly recommend.
I love the new family subscription box. It’s great to have tasty meat ready for any meal packed into our freezer. Easy delivery and fabulous service! Thank you Farmer Dan!
Absolutely delicious. Ordering more the same night we first tried it!
The cow share is great. The meat is excellent. Has a great flavor and because it’s grass fed it’s healthier for you. As a plus it gets delivered right to your doorstep. Thanks Heartstone Farm. Will be purchasing again for sure.
Mouth watering cuts of beef and chicken clearly superior to anything you've tasted before. The crew at Heartstone is clearly dedicated to its craft. I plan to reorder again and again. Cheers!
Fantastic meat. Personal service. Farmer Dan has changed the way we buy groceries. I'm never going back to sub-standard grocery meat!
Delicious organic, free range chicken thighs.....juicier and richer than regular chicken thighs; well worth the money and Hearstone is great company to deal with.... heartily recommended.
We picked up our share three weeks ago, and we couldn't be more pleased with our purchase and the experience. It's so great having meat in the freezer instead of having to go to the store, and the best part is knowing that it came from a small local farm that respects animals and the planet. We can't recommend Heartstone Farm enough!
We gave the sampler box for an early Christmas gift. The family said the burgers were delicious, but they had not tried anything else.
Heartstone beef is delicious and super convenient! Our family has been looking for a reasonably priced local beef supplier and couldn’t be happier to have found Heartstone. I really appreciate the multitude of options. It was easy to find something that met the needs of our family and the option for free delivery was incredible. Though we’ve only had the ground beef so far, I have no doubt the other cuts are just as good and I’m excited to give them a try!
This was my first opportunity to order a beef share through Heartstone Farm. The process was seamless and we were so thrilled with our beef options. The ground beef is delectable, the steaks are generous cuts, very tender. I really appreciate the option to pay in three installments or a one time pay option. I placed my order in September and there was still availability for October so I didn’t have to wait long at all. We live several hours away from the farm and they were very willing to deliver to us. I really appreciate the professionalism and kindness of this farm. We were also gifted with four beautiful steak knives! If you are able, please order from this farm for your future beef purchases. You will not regret it!
My order arrived fully frozen. It was delivered as Heartstone had stated. The share came in three boxes. The beef looked great. We had the T-Bones BBQ and they were delicious. The remainder is in my freezer for future use this winter. :.))
Really delicious and flavorful. I overcooked it a little and it was still great!
The Ribeye is by far the best steak of all! I always have them on hand from Heartstone. Thank you Farmer Dan!
I have not shopped in a grocery store since March 2020. Even when I was able to, it was frustrating to pay top dollar for meats that were subpar. During this challenging time, I wanted to support local farmers. I received my first shipment which was packed well and still frozen, upon receipt. I thought that not having a grill would impact the flavor of the meats. Not the case, at all! My ribeye steak was FABULOUS! My cheeseburger was FABULOUS! My chili was FABULOUS! Sending virtual hugs to Farmer Dan!! Beth from Massachusetts
I bought the grass fed beef liver and a beef heart. I have not cooked the heart yet, looking forward to that. For the lover I used the recipe posted in Farmer Dan's blog and it was fantastic. So tender. I almost tried an air fryer recipe, I think I may cut a piece off of my 2nd liver and try that just to see. But, wow, what a difference it is to store bought grain fed liver, you can taste the difference. The order was shipped within a couple days (I ordered on Columbus Day weekend). Arrived the day after it shipped, still frozen solid. The sustainable packaging was a very nice touch and appreciated. I will be ordering again and hope others read this and order as well. I need some steaks and burgers next order! Some bone marrow, as well. Kent S, Dedham, MA
I am so grateful I found Heartstone Farm! Their grass fed beef is excellent quality, as is the quality of the service, from ordering through delivery. My family and I are loving the meats we received in our delivery (we ordered beef and chicken), and I loved that I was able to save many hours of travel time due to the fact that they offer home delivery service here in Maine. The whole experience was exceptional, and I will most certainly be purchasing from Heartstone Farm in the future. Thank you, Farmer Dan and team!
The order came on time and was prefect!! The ribeye steaks and the chicken were amazing. Customer service were the sweetest people in the world!!! Thank you so much!!!
Theses steaks were amazing!!! You could taste the quality and care in the cows were raised by Farmer Dan and his team. Im extremely satisfied and can’t wait to make my next order.
I’m so glad I found Heartstone farm ! I had been looking for authentic grass feed beef !! I have the beef liver and hearts so far and I can’t wait to purchase more products from them ! Delivery was perfect! Products were frozen and packaged to perfection ! Thanks soo much Farmer Dan !
Oh my goodness. Just grilled the ribeye. Delicious! I am very fussy about my ribeye. The flavor and tenderness was perfect!!
Thank you for your excellent service. I am new to Hearthstone Farm Beef, but I was impressed with the quality of the meat. I have long exclusively purchased Tide Mill Farm chicken. Chicken was always just chicken until it was Tide Mill. Ordering was simple. Delivery was quick, and packaging was safe. All meat was thoroughly frozen and easily put in the freezer with no fuss. I think this service would be grand at any time, but during a pandemic it has been an essential part of my grocery gathering. Thank you again.
We love chicken thighs and it is very difficult to find good sized chicken thighs with bone and skin. This is our preferred way of purchasing chicken thighs because I cannot find such high-quality ones anywhere else here in Maine
Headstone Farms delivered as promised. The liver was still frozen upon delivery and tasted fresh when cooked. Keep up the great work!
Excellent experience! Farmer Dan goes above and beyond! The product was fantastic! Plus I am happy to support a local farmer!
Absolutely amazing flavor and texture! Farmer Dan at Heartstone Farm is now my to go place for purchasing good quality meat for the entire family. Very easy to order; prompt shipment; proper packaging.
The quality of the meat is excellent. People don't usually talk about the packing and shipping, but that was done just as well. Our meat arrived perfectly.
The skirt steak was very good wasn’t sure how to cook it at first but talk to a couple of people and it came out excellent so far everything I’ve tried has been very good
We stocked up for Fall with Farmer Dan's "Fall Stockup Box" and have been delighted. In fact, we ordered two additional boxes. In the time of uncertain politics and a pandemic, it is a relief to know that the meat we eat is healthy and being raised from animals in a way that helps to sustain the Earth instead of harm it.
Lovely cuts of beef, true beef taste that you will NEVER get in any mass supermarket. All delivered fresh to your door, in the sizes and types you want, not what someone else decided you need. Perfect service, very fair prices, and wonderful meat. Highly recommend buying here! Great grass-fed brisket is almost impossible to find in any store, let alone multiple sizes. Look no further. We reordered immediately.
These are some of the best, juiciest steaks we've ordered. We have been sampling grass fed beef from different places. The rib-eyes we ordered are by far some of the best steaks we've had. The cuts are thick and the meat is tender and delicious.
I recently purchased my first compliment of grass fed beef ever. We feel that feeding our family quality foods is critical in this day and age, but find that store bought meats are hit and miss regarding quality. However, we were pleasantly surprised with the steaks and beef in the Maine box as it is flavorful, juicy and easy to cut. I would recommend this to any new comers as i am hooked.
Easy, delivered to your door ground beef. Lean.Tastes great! Always arrives packaged professionally and cold. Would purchase again!
We make a dish called Suya that this cut is perfect for. Tasty flavor and much more tender than the usual at the butcher shop. I did accidentally add this item to my next subscription but ordered it separately deciding I wanted it earlier. Sadly I’ve had trouble updating my subscription to remove the item from my next order. I’ve emailed the farm twice with no response. The buying experience has not been wonderful- still hoping it’s resolved before my next subscription sends- but the meat is great!..... Update 10/28/20 I called and left a message and got a call back to fix the issue. It was really easy and fast. Very happy with how easy it was!
This chicken is absolutely the most flavorful chicken we’ve ever had. We baked it whole and it was so juicy and bursting with flavor. Not to mention the leftover bones make a tremendous bone broth. We love this and will be buying much more!
First time using Farmer Dan and i must he/she exceeded my expectations all round. Dan communicated timely, order was on time and the packaging was impressive.. comes with a personalized handwritten letter. The quality of the meet was impeccable i could not recommend them enough. Thank you for the great product and service. First class to you!! I am definitely buying from you again
The grass fed beef marrow bones that I bought were great! I made soup stock and bone broth to drink daily. The broth was very rich. I also use it when cooking rice or quinoa. It's delicious.
Awesome Farm to do business with. Super friendly and the cow shares are awesome. Thank you so much!!! I will be ordering again!!!
The cuts look and taste fantastic. Perfect amount of marbling and showed up completely frozen. Very pleased
I couldn’t be happier with my purchase of a 10-chicken bundle from Heartstone Farm. The chicken is excellent quality, first and foremost. Plus, the convenience of having whole, organic chickens delivered to my door here in rural Maine where the drive would be considerable to purchase the item in a store, is priceless. As an added bonus, the delivery driver was professional and courteous. Thank you, Farmer Dan and Heartstone Farm, for the exceptional service.
This is now the standard I use to judge all chuck roast by. If you want to create a roast that convinces your in-laws that their offspring made the right decision, you need to start here. You absolutely can't get a better starting point for an amazing meal than the quality meats available through Farmer Dan!
So much flavor and goodness! Best "stew" I've ever made or eaten. Enjoyed to the fullest - Fabulous Flavor. I hope I can always purchase from Farmer Dan - He does it RIGHT!
We got the 1/4 cow share - so far we've tried the sirloin tip steaks and the ground beef. They far outshine anything you can get at a supermarket or restaurant! Great quality beef. We will probably be regular customers.
From ordering, receiving and eating, everything was perfect
This is my second time purchasing this organic beef tongue. Super good quality as always. Usually I was only able to get beef tongue from Hmart or Japanese supermarket but they are not organic. I’m happy to find my options here.
Thank you Farmer Dan. The meat is superb. No issues with delivery. My son was pleased his first delivery. Will continue to purchase beef from you in the future.
The Flat Iron steak was spectacular! We braised it in a cast iron pan, then transferred it to well cooked Vidalia onions, shiitake mushrooms, garlic, celery and sea salt. A few minutes on each side, transferred to a board to rest and thinly sliced. We served it with roasted yams and cauliflower rice. Absolutely delicious.
We couldn’t be happier with our 1/4 beef share. Everything arrived very well packaged and labeled. Customer service through ordering and delivery was great. Quality is high with nice marbling for grass fed beef. Everything we have tried so far has a cut above super market product.
So far I've only had a T-bone and some ground beef, but both were excellent. Delivered on time, frozen solid, well wrapped and labelled. Quite a bit more expensive than other cow shares I've bought in the past, but I ran out of beef at the wrong point in the season and found myself scrambling for a share. Farmer Dan came through,and it is important to me to stay away from megafarmed, hormoned to the gills, animals.
Great product ! Well packaged and the flavor was one of the best I have had.
I love the beef and that semi-surprise of one of Farmer Dan's "boxes". I won't buy my grass fed beef enywhere else now.
With salt, pepper and butter I finally treated my self to a filet mignon from Heartstone. Being a filet I expected the steak to be on the lean side, but boy was I wrong !!! This cut being extra thick was juicy and tender. The marbling generous. I took the easy path by cooking this filet stove top in a skillet and was not disappointed. The steak which was easily cooked up in 5-7 minutes each side was jam "packed" with flavor and was melt in your mouth tender !! A really nice cut !!! This Filet mignon gets a five star rating and is a definite go to item for my future Heartstone Farm orders.
From ordering to shipping and then the end product that arrives at your door... Awesome meat which is a pleasant change from the products in our local grocery stores. I urge you to try it, taste is the best we have had in years! I will be ordering again this week!
nothing like the above photo.
Sent these to my daughter along with the chicken breast. She said the hamburger was wonderful and the chicken was the best she ever had! Can't wait to buy again!
There are many reasons why the 14-Day Dry Aged Premium Ground Beef is worth trying. Right out of the package you can tell the difference in the quality of the beef. It’s almost like it still has life in it. It’s great on its own as a burger on the grill and adds wonderful flavor and texture to other dishes such as a meat sauce for spaghetti squash, yum! You get the added bonus of knowing that the animals are well cared for and living in a clean open environment. Thank you Farmer Dan and everyone at Heartstone Farm for providing such a great product!! I always have some in my freezer :0) Gail Hackelberg
Excellent experience from placing the order to receiving of the delicious product! Farmer Dan is doing everything above and beyond from his excellent communication, environmentally sound packaging, and even a hand written note. The product was fantastic and I am so happy to support a local farmer!
Excellent service! Smooth delivery! We are really enjoying this. Highly recommend!
Oh my gosh, everything is so delicious! We’ve been eating this beef from our cow share nearly every night for dinner, and it’s really upping our game in the recipes we’ve been making! No more grocery store beef for this family — lookin’ forward to our next share! Thanks, Farmer Dan!
The Chicken Sampler from Heartstone Farm was even better than I had hoped. We were so tired of grocery store chicken that didn't taste like anything. The taste and texture of this chicken was delightful. We will definitely purchase this chicken again!
These burgers are delicious. Less fat than a regular burger with all of the flavor.
My husband and I are ADDICTED to Heartstone Farm's meat...We love love love their chuck roast~ I cooked it in the instant pot for 80min. MELT IN YOUR MOUTH~~ super tender and fresh. You won't regret~~
I ordered the Ground Beef Subscription and was pleasantly surprised to receive it sooner than the estimated date of delivery. This ground beef is the only ground beef my family eats now....we cannot go back to supermarket meats. Thank you! J. Martin
Hi Dan, I'm a long time return customer, and your burgers are super! It's convenient to have the burgers pre-shaped and if allowed to thaw a bit, easily separated with a butter knife. PERFECT for those nites I forgot to "get something out for supper"! Thanks for great sales and fabulous product. OsoBuco is TOP SHELF too!!
Fresh, delicious, healthy and feel great about supporting s all businesses and good animal practices. 5 stars!
Meat was great! Great service and will be definitely ordering again soon
A few months ago we were driving from Dover-Foxcroft to Greenville where we spend half the year. I decided to stop at Hearthstone since it was new. I purchased some chicken livers and a chicken. Farmer Dan suggested the butterflied chicken. I also bought a chuck roast. A few days later I thawed the chicken and cooked it on the grill as farmer Dan had suggested. While eating my wife turned to me and said "this is the best chicken I have ever had". Indeed it was excellent. Sort of forgot what a chicken should really taste like. The next week I thawed the chuck and made a pot roast. Again excellent. I am impressed. Finally the chicken liver were also excellent. No bitter taste. While the prices are a bit higher than at a super market, the quality of the food is so much better. Very impressed. This guy is clearly doing something right. Did not use their shipping so cannot comment on that. HF McFarland
The name say it all, " The Best Chicken I'VE Ever Had"
Very impressed by the steaks and will be buying again!!
Wow! The ground beef and steaks were juicy and with excellent flavor. Easy to cook.
My spouse and I purchased “The Maine Box” from Heartstone Farm that included 36 lbs of assorted beef. The meat is vacuum packed, easy to store in freezer and is exceptional. What was even more noteworthy is that when we arrived at the Heartstone store near Dover-Foxcroft, ME, the store was closed for business and door locked. Dan was working in the office and happened to notice us there. He came out, invited us in and allowed us to place our order which was ready to pick-up the following day. Dan was extremely friendly, informative and helpful. Total customer focus. If you’re looking for great product and wonderful customer service, Heartstone Farm should be your #1 choice.
Great, delicious beef, and awesome service! I feel so much better about my food purchases going through a local farmer that takes care of his animals. his people, and his customers.
Absolutely love the quarter cow share we received! This is the second year we have order from Heartstone Farms and Farmer Dan and we couldn’t be more happy. The beef you’ll have is like nothing you’ll get at a store. I highly recommend ordering from Heartstone Farm.
Our family has become devotees of Farmer Dan’s meat. Honestly, we can’t imagine anything else. Our freezers are full. The chickens are extraordinary. The only chicken that comes close, is one we ate in France where they don’t have the factory farms that we do in the U.S.. And...Farmer Dan’s was even better. Run don’t walk for your order!
Thanks Farmer Dan, your ground beef is the best. With the new shipping packaging, the meat came still frozen and as always, delicious. Keep up the good work 👏 Thanks Rick
These short ribs are absolutely delicious! I can’t recommend them and this company enough!
The shaved steak was voted the family favorite from our box. Delicious, and fast to thaw and fast and easy to cook. What’s not to love about 5 minute Philly cheese steaks on game day! We wish we ordered more.
After receiving our first beef subscription we knew we needed to bump our order up to the Maine Box! All the cuts of meat are fantastic! Everything is so flavorful and tender! We’re so happy to have discovered Farmer Dan and Heartstone Farm!
We are loving our quarter share. The service and the quality of the product are outstanding. We will continue to order again and again. Thank you!
We ordered a quarter share and it arrived last Monday. Everything was well packaged and frozen. My husband and son started eating it, and couldn't be happier! Next year we may need a second freezer!
I contacted Heartstone farm while in Maine to try to get the Maine box. The customer service was great and they got back to me right away. I went and picked up the box because my home address is in Texas and we were in town for the month. The meat was the absolute best cuts ever. The sirloin was thick and flavorful, not like any steak you can find at the grocery store or restaurants. You cannot beat the quality of this farm grass finished beef. You feel so good after eating it. I love being able to support the farms directly and I was so glad I found them on google! I will definitely order again when in town! I even have some left over to take back to Texas with me! I'm super excited!
Best chicken livers I have ever had. Deep dark red and incredible flavor. Same great quality as everything Farmer Dan sells. Give anything he produces a try. You will not be disappointed.
Grilled our first burgers the other night and had unanimous rave reviews! I appreciate the generous portion size and the excellent flavor of the beef. I also like knowing that I’m feeding my family beef raised humanely and on a sustainable farm. Thank you!!
These steaks are so good! WOW!! Very easy to prepare, and so so so tender. I'll say it again - you can taste the QUALITY! It's really exceptional...
Good cut of beef. Marinated well. Was very tender and delicious. A good size that fed a large family.
