Dickson’s Farmstand is a purveyor of a unique selection of artisanal meat and meat products. Our beef, lamb, pork, goat and poultry are sourced from local farms , hand-picked because of their commitment to producing natural, humanely-raised, high-quality and distinctive meat products.
At Dickson’s, we connect you to the source of your food: small-scale, sustainable farms that feel just out of reach here in New York City. We introduce you to each of our farmers by sharing with you the stories of their animals, their farms, and their growing methods.
Dickson's Farmstand Meats is dedicated to sustainable and educated meat buying. To further this goal, we will be offering a series of classes focused on helping our customers learn more about the whole animal, from field to plate. This New Year, you'll have the chance to learn where a skirt steak comes from by seeing it actually come off the steer, how to use more of the animal through terrine-making, the anatomy of a chicken, and much more. This is a great opportunity for anyone passionate about responsible meat consumption or the super carnivore!

Highly recommend! We had a blast at this sausage-making class in Chelsea Market. Even though it wasn't a private event, the group was small enough that we got consistent hands-on experience from start to finish. Having two instructors was great—they were helpful and kept things moving. Plus, you get to take home a ton of the sausages you actually made! They also provided a delicious charcuterie board from their butcher, along with beer, wine, and water. A fun, yummy, and very worth-it experience!

I purchased the class as an anniversary gift for my boyfriend. We absolutely loved it. We walked away more knowledgeable and enjoyed the entire process. The location was great. The food was tasty. Your company gave off a very warm and welcoming vibe. The energy from the two instructors was awesome.

Very informative teachers. Wish the class sizes were a little smaller, ended up having to share our station with another couple but it was fine. Made a lot of sausage and cooked it at home. They were delicious!
