After years of rave reviews over the beef John & Sue Ebensberger were producing on their hobby farm, West Forty (40 acres west of Greene, IA) was born!
We have been selling individual cuts and custom wholesale options in Greene since 2013 and Des Moines since 2016. In September 2019, John & Sue purchased the grocery store in Greene, renaming it West Forty Market. You can find all of our locally raised meats at the store!
After being a full time vendor at the Des Moines Farmers Market and offering delivery around the metro, Teresa (their daughter) decided to open her own retail store in Ankeny, IA in May 2021. West Forty Market is located in Uptown Ankeny and features over 120 cuts of beef, pork, chicken, bison, lamb and turkey - all raised on local Iowa farms and butchered in Iowa. We also feature over a dozen local products, including pasta, rubs, sauces and honey.
Grass-fed, grain-finished and raised with love and care ... we are confident you'll enjoy the amazing flavor and tenderness of our meats!

Juicy, flavorful, and versatile, our farm-fresh chicken thighs are sourced directly from trusted local farmers and butchers. With their perfect balance of rich taste and tender meat, chicken thighs are a staple for family meals, meal prep, or gourmet recipes. Whether you’re grilling, roasting, or braising, they never disappoint.
Chicken thighs are naturally more flavorful than chicken breasts thanks to their slightly higher fat content.
They’re one of the most forgiving cuts to cook — staying juicy even if slightly overcooked.
Available bone-in or boneless, giving you flexibility for different recipes.
Grilled: Marinate and cook skin-on thighs for crispy, smoky flavor.
Oven-Baked: Toss with spices and bake for an easy weeknight dinner.
Braised: Slow-cooked in sauces for fall-apart tenderness.
Air Fryer: Crispy outside, juicy inside, with minimal oil.
Excellent source of protein to fuel your day.
Rich in essential nutrients, including iron, zinc, and B vitamins.
Contains healthy fats that enhance flavor while keeping it nutrient-dense.
For food safety, cook chicken thighs to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Bone-in thighs may take slightly longer, so check the thickest part near the bone.
Order chicken thighs directly from trusted local farmers and butchers, and enjoy premium, farm-fresh meat delivered right to your door. At ChopLocal, we make it easy to support local farmers while stocking your freezer with high-quality cuts.
