Sean and I bought a grocery store!


We are now the new owners of Cliff's Country Market in Caldwell, Idaho. 


Since the shutdowns in 2020, we have felt called to help be a part of food security and provide local, quality food for the community. Cliff's Country Market focuses on sourcing local, organic, non-GMO, and gluten-free products. Owning a grocery store fits perfectly into our future goals. 


Cliff has done a fantastic job serving Canyon County and has been sourcing quality produce and food products for over 25 years before organic was cool and popular! Marilyn and Cliff have been a great team in building this business, but as they approach their 80th birthday, it is time to find a new owner who will continue the vision of their store.


We officially take over the store on October 1st!


We will have a soft opening on Saturday, October 1st, to celebrate the transition. 


What does this mean for Cunningham Pastured Meats?


The first exciting thing about acquiring Cliff's Country Market is that we now have a retail location for our meat! So, if you missed placing your order or need some last-minute meat, you can come into the store to purchase our meat right off the shelf.


Secondly, we will have Cliff's Country Market as a pickup location for orders. Right now, the only pickup location we have is at Boise Cold storage, so we are excited to be able to offer another pickup location for those who want to order a smaller order or live outside of our delivery location. (This pickup location will open the first week of October). 


In due time we plan to offer more quality products through our home delivery services, so keep an eye on our emails in the future! We also plan to bring all our cold storage and packing to the store, but for right now, we will continue our meat delivery out of Boise Cold storage. 


If you have never been to Cliff's Country Market in Caldwell, Idaho, we highly recommend driving to the store to check it out! (Here's the Google Map Location).

Here's a short list of products that the store carries:

  • Cunningham Pastured Meats
  • Raw Milk! 
  • Pasture-raised eggs
  • All types of quality dairy products
  • Organic, local, and low-spray produce
  • A wide variety of gluten-free products, including baked goods made right in the store (a separate bakery for gluten-free products)
  • Large selection of flours and cooking supplies (hard-to-find, gluten-free, cooking flours)
  • And many more products!

Please join us on October 1st for our soft opening of Cliff's Country Market. We will be grilling up and sampling our meat!

We are thrilled to have a new avenue to serve you and your family on a new level.

Puppies & Lambs

I can't think of anything cuter than a baby surrounded by a bunch of puppies. Here’s a photo of my daughter with our latest litter of Jack Russell Terrier puppies, and I must say... she's absolutely adorable. My daughter spent nearly 30 minutes sitting on the floor as these tiny puppies cuddled up to her as closely as they could. Our children adore caring for puppies. They eagerly anticipate the arrival of the puppies when they are born, and they play and cuddle with the puppies nearly every day! Just look at this adorable little puppy, sound asleep 😴 If you are interested in our Jack Russell's you can Check out our website here <<<< Spring is incredibly enjoyable as we often see baby animals all around! Recently, my daughter also assisted a baby lamb that needed extra care. We will walk through the field where our sheep give birth and look for lambs that are not pairing up with their moms and appear skinny. We then take them into our house and give them a bottle of milk. In this particular situation, we were able to determine which mother sheep this lamb belonged to. We put them in a pen together for a few days, and then the mom finally learned how to take care of her baby, and she's doing great now! Spring brings such a delightful sense of renewal as we see new life springing up all around us! 

Green Grass, Grazing Pigs & Baby Lambs

By the middle of April, things are looking good around here.There's green grass everywhere, especially on the range. Cows are fat, baby calves are slick and healthy, and everything looks good. Did you know we turn all our cows out on the range BEFORE they calve? We do not watch our cows or heifers (first-time moms) calve. It's their job to go out and "get the job done." So in May, when we gather the range, there are baby calves EVERYWHERE! On the home place, the grass is about 4-6 inches tall and putting some serious weight on our cattle, which will be harvested in the next 1-3 months. At this time of year, our cattle can gain 2-3 lbs of weight PER DAY! That's some serious weight gain and delicious-tasting beef! Speaking of some serious weight gain, our pastured pigs are doing the same. We just harvested the first batch of pigs a few weeks ago, and they were PIGGY FAT. Pigs thrive in early spring due to cooler weather, which helps them gain weight. They crave fresh green grass in the springtime, going grazing for the new grass shoots. Although they mainly consume grains, they value the green grass to balance their diet. And finally, it's my favorite season of all... Lambing season. Over 50% of our sheep have had their lambs in the last week. Sheep typically lamb closely together, and quickly fill a pasture with bouncing baby lambs! It is always incredible to watch this frail baby lamb be born, struggle to get up to get their first drink of milk, and then, less than 24 hours later, bounce around and chase other lambs. We love the newness of spring with green grass, happily grazing pigs, and baby lambs.
