Midwest Farm Fresh Halal Meats

Midwest Farm Fresh Halal Meats is a very small USDA-inspected establishment at 801 HWY 212 E in Hector, Minnesota, in Renville County. It holds federal establishment number M2961 and is listed with the Food Safety and Inspection Service for both Meat Slaughter and Meat Processing, with a grant of inspection date on file of June 11, 2026. The phone number on the federal record is (320) 241-6879.

The species reported to FSIS as slaughtered under inspection is sheep and lamb. The plant reports halal slaughter. Its FSIS slaughter volume category is 1, meaning fewer than 1,000 head per year. In addition to federally inspected work, the establishment reports custom-exempt slaughter, in which animals owned by the customer are processed and the packages are marked Not for Sale, and it reports retail-exempt sales.

The only website on file is a Facebook page, and no website text was available for this record. A third party directory snippet describes the plant as an option for cattle, sheep and goat, which goes beyond the sheep and lamb species reported to FSIS; that claim is not confirmed by the federal record. Hours, pricing, scheduling practices, cut and wrap options, and ownership are not yet on file.

The federal record lists both Meat Slaughter and Meat Processing at this establishment, with sheep and lamb reported as the species slaughtered under inspection, and it reports halal slaughter. Producers who want animals returned for their own use can note that the plant also reports custom-exempt slaughter, with resulting packages marked Not for Sale. The FSIS volume category of 1 indicates under 1,000 head per year, so capacity is small. Booking procedures, lead times, minimums, kill day scheduling, hanging fees, and cut and wrap charges are not stated in the sources on file, and the establishment is not represented here as currently accepting work. Calling (320) 241-6879 is the only contact method in the federal record.

Midwest Farm Fresh Halal Meats reports custom-exempt slaughter to FSIS, which means it can process an animal a customer already owns (a whole, half, or share bought before slaughter) and return it in packages marked Not for Sale. Most small farms have one or two plants they book with, and the plant's calendar decides the delivery date.

The establishment reports retail-exempt sales to FSIS, which generally covers direct sales of meat to household customers at the plant, and it reports halal slaughter. Specific cuts, bundles, halves or quarters, whole lamb pricing, online ordering, delivery, and shipping are not stated in any source on file. Retail hours are also not on file. Buyers should call (320) 241-6879 or check the establishment's Facebook page to confirm what is available before traveling.

If you are buying a half or quarter animal, the plant is where the animal is processed; the farm sells you the animal. Read how to buy a half cow for the sequence and the math.
