Pasture Grazed = 100% Grassfed, 100% Grass Finished, MORE with LESS…
People find us for healthy eating.
They stayed for the flavor.
Pasture grazed because the herd is always on pasture. How can you be assured of this claim?
- Read our Pasture Grazed vs Grassfed blog post for more background.
- What we believe and how we live it out in our goals and management.
- Contact us for a herd/pasture visit to inspect for yourself.
- Annually, our beef is analyzed by Midwest Labs in Omaha for Omega 6:3 Ratio.
- Pasture Grazed means 100% GRASSFED & 100% GRASS FINISHED.
- Curious about Grass-fed vs. Grain fed? We are excited to be part of this latest research being conducted by The BIONUTRIENT Institute:
Most people have no idea what’s in the meat their family is eating. We raise pure meat.
FLAVOR comes primarily from what the animal consumed the last 60-90 days leading up to harvest. FAT carries the FLAVOR. 100% Grassfed, 100% Grass Finished, 100% Grass Fat. No grains ever. Remember, in nature, NUTRITION follows FLAVOR. When something is flavorful, your body instinctively knows it is nutritious. You will seek more to meet metabolic needs and enjoy it! Another example of a “win – win” found in nature, based on God’s design.
MORE with LESS!
How we work with nature, our commitment to you, the land and the animals we raise (MORE):
- Cattle on pasture 365 days per year
- Cattle allowed to develop a natural herd instinct
- Cattle moved to fresh paddocks regularly
- Cattle have a rumen designed to consume forages, forage is all that our herd is offered
- Calves are born with summer hair coats, our calves are born in late spring and early summer
- Cows nurse their calves a minimum of 8 months (usually longer), calves learn from their mother naturally
- Cattle treated with medications only under emergency situations
- Beef for sale directly to consumers is always antibiotic free
- Fresh grass and proper mineral supplementation = herd health!
- Cattle worked in a calm no stress way
- All cattle feed is NON-GMO.
What we don’t allow (LESS):
- Our cattle are never fed grain or allowed to graze crop residue
- Crop residues have grain
- Most crops are GMO (corn, beans and some alfalfa)
- Our cattle are never offered feed or mineral containing sub therapeutic antibiotics
- Our cattle are never treated with a growth hormone (natural or synthetic)
- Our cattle are never offered feed or mineral containing beta-agonists (Ractopamine)
- Our cattle are never offered distillers’ grains (by-product of corn-based ethanol, GMO)
- Our cattle are never treated with pesticides (chemical pour on wormers or fly sprays)
