ABOUT: Prather Ranch Meat Company (PRMC) began as the retail arm of Prather Ranch, a certified organic beef ranch located in Siskiyou County. Though PRMC still sells Prather Ranch beef, they are now a separate business and retailer of a variety of meats. At the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market, PRMC sells grilled meats and sandwiches.

SOURCING: All PRMC meats come from their retail establishment inside the Ferry Building, a meat shop that sources from family-owned ranches in California and Oregon. Their beef is organic, and all beef, pork, and lamb is Certified Humane. Bread is from Acme Bread Company and is made locally with organic flour. Condiments are mostly organic, and produce is often sourced from the farmers' market. PRMC also sells Izze fruit beverages, Virgils Root Beer and Cream Soda (neither of which contain high fructose corn syrup), and Kettle Chips.
