Local Pastures

Hesitate to even review because i want to keep this a treasured secret but they absolutely deserve 5 stars. Best eggs, meat and health food items anywhere. They have a new cashier on Raw Milk Pickup Wednesdays who is so knowledgeable and kind. Much nicer than the previous cashier talked about in other reviews! Highly recommended.

Local Pastures is a gem! The quality of their pasture-raised meats and eggs is outstanding, and you can truly taste the difference. A special shoutout to Kara, who was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable—she made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend if you care about clean, local food and great service!

They say “you get what you pay for” and everything here is as fresh as it gets and well worth it, especially the eggs, chicken & bread “for the people” which might be the best sourdough in town. Kara is always super friendly and makes it feel like this truly is the realest food for the realest people!

I love this place, it’s a weekly staple for us. The eggs are the best I’ve had and I love the bacon, tortillas made without seed oils, raw cheeses, local sourdough boules, delicious Greek yogurt varieties and a weekly raw milk pre order.

Killer little shop with all your grass fed, local meat & egg necessities. Joshua is helpful and there’s some dry goods/pasta, honey, and dog treats as well. Duck eggs, chicken eggs, pork, beef, bacon, chicken, sausages, etc. local farms only.

I absolutely love this store! It’s my go-to spot for raw milk, fresh eggs, and high-quality skincare products. Kara is amazing—always a joy to interact with and incredibly knowledgeable. I can’t say enough good things about her or this store!

I’ve been coming to local pastures for a while now and they carry some unique things that I can’t easily find elsewhere. I particularly enjoy the mother culture kefir that’s about as close to a home brew as you’ll find at a store. I also enjoy their jalapeño chicken sausage that I wish they would find a way to keep in stock more. For the most part the customer service has been good. At other times it has been off but I try to give a pass to those kind of things with a small farm to retail place. There’s been a few reviews on here that I don’t think are fair given as long as I’ve frequented this place. I don’t really get the whole try to sucker punch a small business for a singular customer service experience when you can just call and speak to management who probably aren’t aware of it. It appears from the managements comments they want to correct the recent issue. If after that the issue remains then I think reviews are a fair response. It seems strange to leave a permanent review for a singular negative customer service moment for a small ma and pa place. I’ve come here for couple years now. I’ve no Lu had good food experiences and have been happy to find unique farm to store with humane and healthy products. It would be helpful for them to probably do a training on their employees as I’ve had a couple of hiccups with the staff but most of the staff has been great over all.

The Local Pastures on Oltorf has been my go-to spot for high-quality eggs, dairy and meat for over a year now. I shop there once a week and always look forward to it. If something I’m looking for happens to be out of stock, the friendly team always knows when it’ll be back—and they’re happy to recommend new arrivals I haven’t tried yet. (I also really enjoy their marketing emails about what’s happening on the farms!) An easy five stars for the amazing products and outstanding service.

Super cute little truck with lots of goodies. They were out of eggs at 2pm on Saturday so that was a bummer, but we'll just have to come earlier next time. Walked away with some ground beef, plain Greek yogurt and whole wheat flour from Barton Springs Mill that I'm excited to use to make my own sourdough. Will try for eggs again next time!

I will not buy eggs no where else.. they are nice and orange. Very fresh!!! The also have other items but I have not had a chance to partake in the other offerings.

They recently opened on June, the attendant helped me make a decision on some selections. I did inquire if the chicken sausages were made with pork casing, he was unsure of the answer and immediately reached out via phone to another colleague to find a solution. (They ARE in fact made with pork) I always like to visit local spots and support!

I love this place! It's my new spot for all kinds of farm fresh goods like pasture raised eggs (seriously the best I've ever cracked), meats like beef, duck and pork, lards, dairy etc and they even carry delicious ready to eat soups. Sausage and Lentil soup from Belle Vie Farm was super rich! They have a schedule for all the local farm deliveries, so new stuff gets restocked every week. Mindy at the front is so sweet too! Check them out next time you need to do a little grocery shopping.

Local Pastures is a wonderful addition to our neighborhood. Always fresh clean food. Kara and the other staff are kind, helpful, and courteous. doesn't get any better than this.!

Amazing Farmers Market within a market. All local, thoughtful , sustainable beauty here.

Terrible customer service - we were very excited after learning about this place on IG. We'd been looking for places to support local farmers and drove 20 mins to visit Local Pastures. From the initial walk-in to the Oltorf location on Saturday 10/26 at about 2:50pm we said hi to the young woman working who ignored us. She'd been sitting at the register when we walked in but once we entered she decided to begin restocking and somehow kept getting in the way. She was setting up ladders, blocking the fridges and mind you it's a very tight space to begin with. There were 2 other groups of patrons in there who walked in so between all of us we were having a difficult time shopping around each other. Then upon checkout we'd purchased frozen steaks and a dozen eggs and she didn't give us a bag or offer a bag and also couldn't print a receipt. The entire time she was unwelcoming and rude to us and the people who'd checked out before us as well.

Cannot say enough about the quality and care and value Local Pastures provides to us as consumers and our regenerative world. I HIGHLY recommend them! I would love it if they collaborated with an epic produce vendor. If so, it would be where I do most all of my grocery shopping!
