About Black Market Cattle Company
Black Market Cattle Company began as the name of our family farm and a way to sell the beef we raised so we could live more independently.
The farm became River Cade Farms, but BMCC grew into something larger: a platform dedicated to advancing liberty and voluntaryism through stories, editorials, videos, and provocative designs that start conversations.
Every design begins with an issue. We form the argument, write the story, and create the design. The work behind it equips the wearer to carry that conversation clearly, positively, and intelligently.
WHAT WE BELIEVE
FAITH & FAMILY
We believe Christ is King. We believe families should be free to grow food, educate their children, and live without unnecessary permission.
SELF-RELIANCE
We believe productive work creates real value. Local relationships are stronger than centralized systems. Self-reliance begins at home.
FREEDOM
We believe in property rights and voluntary exchange. Freedom carries responsibility, and charity comes from the heart, not force.
