Mountain Foot Farms

Tyler Snider, a third generation family farmer, continues the legacy of his grandfather who raised a small herd of beef cattle on the same property. After purchasing the land in 2009, Tyler faced challenges due to rising grain prices and decided to transition to pasture-based management, which led to positive customer feedback and business growth. Today, the farm is home to 90 cow-calf pairs and 90 steers raised outdoors on pasture.

The farm employs pasture-based management, ensuring that cattle have constant access to paddocks, water, and shade. This method promotes animal health by allowing them to live in their natural habitat, reducing the need for manual feed, and improving overall product quality. The farm adheres to the highest animal welfare standards in the U.S. and Canada, verified by the Animal Welfare Approved certification.

Mountain Foot Farms sells AWA-certified beef by appointment only, offering beef by the half or whole. Tyler appreciates the marketing support provided by AWA, which helps him communicate the farm's practices to customers. For more information or to make an appointment, customers can contact Tyler at (814) 259-3232 or visit the farm's Facebook page for news and photos.
