Why list with OMF
Your animals. Your price. Your buyers.
The OMF Producer Marketplace connects your farm with people who want to buy beef and pork straight from the farmer.
You get paid directly
Buyers pay you through your own Square payment link on each listing. OMF never holds your money.
Sell ahead of finish
List animals from birth to finished weight with a ready date. Buyers reserve early, so the sale is made while the animal is still growing.
Processing is lined up
Every sale is processed by OMF in Fulton, MO, or an OMF Verified Processor near your farm. The buyer's cut list goes with the animal.
Your own farm page
Tell your story with photos and a link you can share anywhere. Buyers see who raised their beef or pork.
New buyers find you
The marketplace brings buyers to your listings, and OMF features producer farms on its Facebook and Instagram.
Simple, legal sales
Animals sell live, whole or by the half or quarter, under the USDA custom exemption. No meat license needed to sell a live animal.

Questions
Straight answers for producers
What does it cost?
A one-time $100 posting fee to activate your account. When an animal sold through the marketplace is processed, there is a $0.10/lb program fee on hanging weight (about $70 on a 700 lb hanging weight), paid before the buyer picks up. Square's standard card fees apply to buyer payments.
How do buyers pay me?
Each listing carries your Square payment link. The buyer pays you directly. OMF does not hold or handle the money.
Who processes the animal?
Animals sold through the marketplace are processed by Ozarks Meat Factory or an OMF Verified Processor. Farms near Fulton go to OMF; farms farther out go to a Verified Processor in their own state.
Do I have to sell every animal through the marketplace?
No. You choose which animals to list. The agreement covers only animals you sell through the marketplace.
Can I sell meat by the pound?
Not through the marketplace. Listings are live animals or shares (whole, half, quarter) processed under the USDA custom exemption, and the meat is for the buyer's household.
I'm not in Missouri. Can I join?
Yes. The program is starting in Missouri and growing state by state. Call us and we'll tell you which processor would handle animals from your farm.
How fast can I start listing?
Sign-up takes about 5 minutes. Your portal unlocks once your posting fee is confirmed, and OMF reviews each new listing, usually within 1 business day.
