About Our Grass-fed Beef
Our beef are raised on certified organic pasture in the summer and on hay and balage when the pasture isn't growing. Minerals and sea kelp are provided at all times and also clean water. They are never given grain, antibiotics, or growth hormones. Each day during the summer the cows are moved to new, lush sections of pasture. Rotational grazing improves the pasture by building soil and increasing fertility. Our herd is made up of Devon Cross steer. Our bred of choice is Devon because of their ability to convert grass to meat effciently and marble without grain. Eating grass, legumes and herbs is the natural way for cattle. Cows are herbivores and were not mean to eat grain, as they do in industrial feedlot systems. Devon cattle have been at the heart of the American agricultural since Pilgrim times, they have been bred to produce succulent beef from a grass diet for centuries. Meat from truly grass fed cattle has less total fat, less saturated fat, less cholesterol and fewer calories. It has health-promoting fats called omega-3 fatty acids and CLA "conjugated linoleic acid", plus more vitamin A & E than conventional beef. Grass-fed meat has two to four times more omega-3s, the so-called "good fat". The are an important building-block in every cell of your body. Grass-fed beef can lower your risk of a number of diseases, including high blood pressure, diabetes and cancer. So plan to enjoy some of our beef, and know it is good for you!
