About this product in their own words:
THE WALKER LEGACY
IN 1970
Jason’s grandparents bought land, Jason’s parents started farming, and immediately had chemical salesmen knocking on their doors, but they held the line and said they believe they can have healthy crops and pastures without chemicals.
TODAY
Kristina and Jason Walker, with their children learning alongside them, now steward thousands of acres of thriving ecosystem. We’re the first Regenerative Organic Certified® beef and pork producers in America.
FUTURE
Every package from our farm carries three generations of commitment to raising the healthiest meat on the market – independently tested, nutrient-dense food that nourishes families while regenerating the planet.
We’re not just preserving tradition – we’re proving that regenerative farming produces measurably superior meat. Our goal: show the world that the healthiest food comes from the healthiest land, creating a legacy that benefits your grandchildren’s grandchildren.
How we heal thousands of acres every single day
Our cattle move to fresh pasture daily, mimicking ancient buffalo herds. This builds soil, increases biodiversity, and captures carbon with every hoofprint.
We plant diverse species that feed soil microbes, prevent erosion, and create habitat for beneficial insects. No bare soil, ever.
We keep carbon in the ground where it belongs. Our soil stays intact, water infiltration improves, and biology thrives.
Beyond meat production, we maintain wildlife corridors, pollinator habitat, and wetlands. A farm should be an ecosystem, not a factory.
Healthy soil = healthy animals = healthy people. The most nutrient dense meat starts underground.
Visit our farm. Meet our animals. See our processing. Nothing to hide, everything to share.
Continuously improving our methods. If there’s a better way to heal land or raise animals, we’ll find it.
Sustainable maintains. Regenerative heals. We’re rebuilding ecosystems for your grandchildren.
Fair wages for workers. Fair prices for quality. Fair treatment for animals. No exceptions.
Educating and supporting our local and global networks. Real change happens together.

FROM THE FOUNDER
Hey Friends,
What an honor to have you here. Fat and the Moon is the place we get to meet, as real deal bodies, as plant people, and as people seeking alternatives to toxic paradigms. We need each other to be supported, and to stay inspired.
As an herbalist, I have a passion for plant bodies and human bodies, and how they synergize. I see the skin as the organ of our edge- the place where we meet the world, and feel the pain and pleasure of existence. Our edges are the places we grow and change.
My deepest intention with Fat and the Moon, is to provide intentionally made potions to support that fertile and feeling edge.
With love,
Rachel

Morbier is a nutty, creamy cheese with a line of ash down the center originating from the Jura Mountains. It pairs well with fresh bread and dijon mustard. It’s appearance has roots in a preservation technique once use by French cheesemakers where leftover curds were saved and topped with ash to keep the flies away! The next day they were topped with more curds and this process created the unique signature stripe.
Beillevaire Raclette cheese is available seasonally and currently in stock! Here’s a recipe for:

“Saffron is the ultimate luxury. Treated with the utmost respect from the flowers where it grows to the tiny tins and jars tucked safely in the pantry, saffron is the crowning jewel of cooking. A splash of dissolved saffron threads finishes off biryani, and generous pinches of saffron underscore the love in a homemade tahdig. Our saffron ice cream is an elegant exhibition of this extraordinary ingredient.
We source the highest quality premium saffron threads, which are handpicked from crocus flowers. These threads are steeped in a proprietary process for the perfect amount of time and at the perfect temperature to draw out saffron’s color and depths of flavor. Saffron has a complicated and refreshing taste, like lemongrass and honey. It is earthy, sweet, and slightly floral. Our Saffron ice cream is very simple, because saffron itself is simply perfect.
