Lazy days on the farm.

We raise All Natural Beef on our farm. We raise both polled hereford & angus cattle. The herefords are known for their grazing ability while the angus are known for the marbling in the meat. We have some wonderful foundation cows in our herd. We switch off every two years with a hereford bull & then an angus bull.  By cross breeding our cows periodically with really good stock we can achieve nice hybrid vigor & good, strong, healthy animals.

We are certified by the USDA that we do not use added growth hormones or antibiotics with our beef. They are only fed the feeds that we grow here on our farm which is nice green grass pasture, haylage, some dry hay & a little corn silage. We do buy a basic mineral supplement for them to keep them well balanced & healthy.

elmoWe have been raising beef since we went out of the dairy business in 1986 although we just began “finishing” them & marketing them for retail a few years ago. Up until then we basically ran a cow/calf operation where the calves were sold as feeders at about 8 months old for someone else to grow them up to slaughter age.

We pride ourselves on the fact that we grow happy, healthy beef animals in a very humane environment & produce delicious, flavorful cuts of beef.
