Beef
Options to please your palate and conscience
You'll find grass-fed, certified-organic and all-natural beef in our meat department in a variety of cuts, including our ready-to-cook, pre-seasoned Natural Express options. Our ground beef is ground fresh daily at our stores.
Look for certified-organic, grass-fed beef from Eel River Organic Beef, local grass-fed beef from Thundering Hooves of Walla Walla, Wash. and all-natural beef from Country Natural Beef.
Poultry
Free-range and free of antibiotics
PCC's chicken and turkey are raised free-range with plenty of outdoor access and fed vegetarian diets free of antibiotics.
Draper Valley Farms raises our "Ranger" free-range chickens in Mt. Vernon, Wash. U.S.-grown corn and soy are the two primary sources of protein and energy for these flocks.
Petaluma Poultry Company supplies PCC with certified organic "Rosie" chickens. Petaluma, based in Northern California, ensures that these organic birds are raised on all organic, non-GMO corn, soy and other feed.
Diestel Turkey Ranch supplies our turkeys. This family-owned ranch in California's Sierra foothills raises free-range, vegetarian-fed poultry. Diestel also produces certified-organic turkeys that carry the "Heidi's Hens" label. Both roast beautifully, turning out moist, juicy and full of flavor.
Pork
Fresh and succulent
Our fresh, delicious pork is humanely raised with access to the outdoors and a diet free of artificial hormones and antibiotics by Paul and Karrie Klingeman of Pure Country Pork in Ephrata, Wash.
Lamb
From the emerald hills of Oregon
Umpqua Valley Lamb is our source for fresh, locally raised lamb. The cooperative of ranchers from southwest Oregon pastures its lambs year-round on fields that remain green even in January. This natural diet of fresh grass, sweet clover, and alfalfa provides a mild-flavored meat high in healthful conjugated linoleic acid (CLA).
Bison
At home on the range
The North American Bison Cooperative raises our lean, flavorful bison. The 330-plus member ranchers in the United States and Canada raised the herds free of growth hormones, antibiotics and stimulants, on diets free of animal byproducts.
Uncured meats
Free of sodium nitrates and nitrites
We hold our uncured meats to the same standards as the rest of our meat and poultry selection. You'll find bacon from Applegate Farms, sliced ham from Garrett County Farms, smoked bratwurst from Hempler's, Diestel sliced turkey breast, our very own fresh PCC sausage and more.
All PCC hot dogs, sausages, sliced lunch meats, ham and bacon are classified as "uncured" because they have no harmful synthetic sodium nitrates or nitrites, which are used in other typical cured meats.
Our Northwest producers
We support many local ranchers, including Draper Valley Farms (Mount Vernon, Wash.), Thundering Hooves (Walla Walla, Wash.), and Umpqua Valley Lamb (Oregon). Our fresh PCC sausage is handcrafted locally and we carry cured meats from Hempler's (Ferndale, Wash.).
