In this episode of Patio Ponderings, I sit down with Hayden Heigl, founder of Frosty Bunk, a fast-growing direct-to-consumer beef sales business based in Kansas. Hayden shares the story behind launching his local beef brand, how he’s connecting farm and consumer in today’s market, and what it takes to build trust—and a loyal customer base—in the farm-to-table movement.

We talk about the challenges and rewards of launching a small business rooted in agriculture, the logistics of processing and delivery, and how staying true to your values can shape your brand’s identity. This conversation offers inspiration for anyone interested in entrepreneurship, local food systems, or supporting independent beef producers.

Whether you’re a fellow farmer, an ag startup enthusiast, or a curious consumer who wants to know where their meat comes from—this episode is packed with insight and authenticity straight from the pasture.
