Jhatka Farms LLC

Jhatka Farms LLC operates under USDA FSIS establishment number M3938 at 8294 W US Highway 82 in Savoy, Fannin County, Texas. The federal record lists both Meat Slaughter and Meat Processing activities, a size class of Very Small, and a grant of inspection date on file of August 7, 2026. The plant also reports custom-exempt slaughter, meaning it processes animals owned by the customer with packages marked Not for Sale. Species detail is not reported to FSIS.

The website on file, jhatkamarket.com, describes a retail operation identified as a Jhatka Farm franchisee, with a store at 2332 N Custer Rd, McKinney, Texas. The site states the business was founded in 2025 and prepares meat using traditional Jhatka methods. Products named are chicken described as free-range and hormone-free, goat, fish, and eggs. The site says meats are fresh and never frozen, that meat is sourced from local farmers and suppliers, and that delivery to the customer's door is part of its process. One page carries the note Not for Resale, consistent with the custom-exempt activity reported to FSIS.

The FSIS record lists a phone number of (440) 337-3824, while the website lists 945-400-9225 and 945-338-7155. The website's street address is the McKinney retail store rather than the Savoy plant address in the federal record; the farm location address is given only as Call us. Details on booking, minimums, fees, and cut and wrap for farmers are not on file beyond what is described here.

The federal record shows both slaughter and processing activity at the Savoy plant and notes custom-exempt slaughter, in which the animals remain the property of the customer and the resulting packages are marked Not for Sale. The plant is classed as Very Small. Species accepted, scheduling lead times, booking procedures, minimums, kill fees, and cut and wrap options are not stated in the sources on file. A farmer would need to contact the establishment directly to confirm whether custom work is being scheduled.

Jhatka Farms LLC 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 website describes a retail store at 2332 N Custer Rd, McKinney, Texas, where no pre-order is required, along with a farm location open by appointment for pickup. Whole goat and country chicken require an order placed at least 24 hours ahead, which the site says carries special discount pricing, and the site advertises 15 percent off on orders placed 24 hours in advance. Orders can be placed online, by phone, or in person at the farm, and same-day orders are accepted at the farm. The site states meat is fresh and never frozen and lists chicken, goat, fish, and eggs. Halves and quarters, bundles, and shipping are not mentioned in the sources.

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.
