Gift Nutrition
Meat subscription boxes are becoming increasingly popular and we think they would make the perfect gift for someone on your list. We have several sponsors that offer a variety of box options and other products perfect for stocking stuffers. Whether your recipient enjoys juicy steaks, hearty bison meat, or tender chicken, you can find some of the best meats from a variety of producers.
BISON
Bison is a highly nutrient dense food because of the proportion of protein, fat, mineral, and fatty acids to its caloric value. So you can help add nutrional value to your recipients diet with products from our sponsor Wild Oasis Bison Ranch. Their products range from their popular Bison Snack Sticks to bundles featuring a variety of cuts. And don’t forget the dog mom or dad on your list with Wild Oasis’ high-quality products for dogs.
BEEF
If your gift recipient is obsessed with steak and burgers, we have options for how you can fill their appetite this holiday season. When it comes to high-quality proteins, beef provides many nutrients in a smaller serving size than some other choices. So make sure the beef enthusiasts in your life have a stocked freezer for the new year. Bailey Meats LLC offers boxes including ground beef and plenty of steak options in the “Steak Lovers” box. Over at Perennial Pastures Ranch, you’ll find products that are snack worthy like their All-Natural Beef Sticks and products to make life easier like their seasonal “Slow Cooker Box”, perfect for an easy crockpot meal. They also have unique products like their cooking tallow and bone broth.
CHICKEN
Chicken is always great option when it comes to nutrition. As an excellent low-calorie, low-sodium, and low-fat source of protein, chicken provides important nutrients throughout our lives. Whether your recipient is a fan of chicken breast or prefers the whole chicken, Perennial Pastures Ranch’s pasture raised chicken are sure to satisfy the cravings.
Gift Green
Smoothies are the perfect breakfast for someone who is always on the go. Give that busy someone a protein supercharge with We Are The New Farmers’ Fresh Frozen Spirulina Cubes or Fresh Spirulina Paste. One cube equals one day of fresh greens, while two cubes pack the protein punch of one egg. Unlike the powder supplements you might find in a local grocery store, We Are The New Farmers’ products maintain their nutrional integrity. So you can be confident that your recipient will get the highest quality nutritional value.
When you shop from our sponsors, you are also supporting American businesses. Happy shopping!
