About Fluffy Butt Farms

We’re Chris and Tawney, the heart behind Fluffy Butt Farms in Battle Creek, Michigan. We started this farm in 2020, during the pandemic, when grocery store shelves were empty and all we could find was “sad” food—wilted herbs, bruised produce, and questionable meats loaded with seasoning or processing that didn’t sit right with Tawney’s system. That’s when we decided to take control and raise our own meat the way it should be done.
 
  • Your Problem, Solved: Fed up with subpar, over-processed meats? We raise natural, farm-fresh meat so you can enjoy cuts that are flavorful, healthy, and worth every bite—no grocery store disappointments here.
  • Pure Quality You Can Trust: Our animals thrive in a natural environment, free of hormones or injections, because you deserve meat that’s clean, safe, and never pumped with artificial additives.
  • For Your Health & Peace of Mind: Like Tawney, who couldn’t stomach the processed stuff, we’re here for anyone craving meat that nourishes without compromise. Say goodbye to mystery ingredients and hello to real food.
  • Local & Sustainable: We went from world travelers to rooting ourselves in this community to bring you high-quality meat you can feel great about—supporting local while feeding your family the best.

 

At Fluffy Butt Farms, we’re not just raising animals—we’re solving the frustration of “sad” meat options with every cut. Let us bring the farm-fresh difference to your table!

I can’t recommend Fluffy Butt Farms enough. The beef, pork, and chicken are top-tier, and it feels good knowing I’m supporting a local farm that does things the right way. If you care about where your food comes from—and you want it to taste amazing—this is the place to buy from. Thanks Chris and Tawney!

I'll be a return customer for sure.

Made a pot/chuck roast today as one does on a snowy February Sunday.

I knew there would be a difference between what one can find at other places but...whew!... what a reminder of how much quality matters.

I appreciated that I didn't have to skim a ton of fat from my Dutch oven.
And the meat was that: real delicious meat. Very little waste, especially when compared to a store-bought roast.

My recipe is good, but you made today's roast exceptional! Quality meat matters.

Grateful that Fluffy Butt Farms is part of the local community.

Consensus is... best pork chops we've ever had! Sausage was really good too!

Recently found out about them a few months ago, and finally caught up with them at the Kalamazoo farmers market. So far we’ve tried the Oberon brats, pineapple teriyaki, and old fashion brats and they were all the best we’ve had hands down! They also have a great meat rub that was to die for on the pork chops. I’ll be back for more at the next farmers market. Definitely a great farm to buy from!

I have worked in the food industry for over 40 years and have never had pork as good as this! The Hungarian breed of Mangalitsa pigs is amazingly good. Now it’s all I want if pork is on the menu. We eat far less meat these days so when we do we want the best there is. Pasture raised, free to roam in the woods really makes a difference.

We enjoyed an amazing ham for Easter dinner. It had a heavy layer of fat that crisped up under the glaze I used and basted the meat. There is simply no comparison between a mushy, salty processed ham from the grocery store and this delicately flavored smoked farm raised ham!
