Verde Farms Now Available in Skogen’s Festival Foods

Organic, 100% grass-fed beef adds 42 Wisconsin stores through new retail partnership

Burlington, MA – Verde Farms, a pioneer in the better-for-you beef industry and the No. 1 organic beef brand nationwide, has announced that it is now on Skogen’s Festival Foods’ shelves. The Wisconsin grocery chain will carry Verde Farms’ 93/7 and 80/20 ground beef along with burgers, ribeye and strip steaks in all 42 of its stores.

Skogen’s Festival Foods traces its roots to 1946 and joined the 1939 Group family of grocers in 2025, a network that also includes Schnuck Markets and Hometown Grocers. The partnership expands Verde Farms’ presence in Wisconsin, where its products are already available through Target and Amazon Fresh.

“We’re excited that this partnership with Skogen’s Festival Foods brings Verde Farms’ organic beef to shoppers across Wisconsin just in time for summer grilling season,” said CEO of Verde Farms Brad Johnson. “We’re also proud to already be part of the Schnucks family of stores, so this feels like a natural extension of a relationship we already know and trust.”

For more than two decades, Verde Farms has been on a mission to bring consumers responsibly raised beef that is always organic and always delicious, challenging the broken food system created by the corporate beef industry. Verde sets the standard for pure, high-quality beef—raised the right way, the way it used to be and always should have been. Verde is the only beef brand that consistently delivers on every major attribute today’s conscious consumers demand from their beef: organic, 100% grass-fed and finished, humanely raised, verified regenerative, free from antibiotics and added hormones, non-GMO and pasture-raised.

Recent third-party nutrient density testing confirmed Verde’s organic beef delivers higher levels of key nutrients compared to leading non-organic grass-fed beef products, while Verde products earned the prestigious Master Chefs’ Seal of Excellence for superior flavor and culinary performance. The brand’s leadership and innovation have been recognized through key industry honors, including the Redzone Productivity Team of the Year Award 2025 and Mindful Award 2025 achievement, reinforcing Verde’s standing as a trusted, values-driven leader in better-for-you beef.
