Healthy. Happy. Humane.

Salt air, iron-rich soil, and rolling pastures produce healthy, stress-free animals. There’s a relationship between farmer, animal and the land that can’t be replicated resulting in beef as distinctive as the Island itself.

Prince Edward Island Certified Beef, raised on Canada’s Food Island, is genuine in character and old world flavour for the tables of those who choose to eat better.

Available at across PEI.
