Kinikin is Now Part of Homestead
Thank you, Montrose, for 20 amazing years!
We’re proud to share that Kinikin is now part of the Homestead family. That means the same great meat, friendly faces, and local roots, now backed by even more support from rancher-owned Homestead Natural Meats.
Who is Homestead?
Homestead started almost 30 years ago with 6 ranching families and one small shop in Cedaredge, Colorado. Today, we run a USDA-inspected facility in Delta and work with over 1,000 farmers and ranchers. We also supply more than 200 restaurants and local stores.
Even as we grow, we’re still 100% owned by Colorado ranchers. We believe in local food, local jobs, and taking care of our community. To find out more about Homestead: www.homesteadmeats.com

Custom Processing
Good news: you’ve got a spot!

You can reach us at 970-240-4329
Note: All custom beef, pork, lamb, goat, and sheep will now be processed in Delta at:
741 W 5th St, Delta, CO 81416
Elk and bison will still be handled at the Montrose (Kinikin) location.
Harvest Schedule
Homestead is 100% USDA from Harvest to Packaging. Homestead has increased capacity and harvests animals more than twice as often as Kinikin did, so you’ll have more options and a quicker turnaround.
- Beef: Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday – Delta Location
- Sheep, Goats & Hogs: Every Thursday – Delta Location
- Overruns (extras): Monday as needed – Delta Location
- Elk & Bison: Monday – Montrose location only
Wild Game Processing
Yes, we’ll still process wild game for hunting season.
Homestead used to handle wild game but had to pause to meet beef demands. Now, with Kinikin’s location, we’ll have a dedicated wild game room that runs year-round, without slowing down rancher or wholesale production.
All wild game will be processed at the Montrose location for the 2025–2026 hunting season.
