Our beef is exclusively grass-fed, grass-finished.  It is never grained or confined in a feed lot.  We have our own breeding program with a momma-cow herd and bulls that produce our butcher steers each year as well as replacement heifers.  Our cattle start as calves, spend their full yearling year with us and are butchered in their second year.  Because we keep our cattle from birth to finish, we have a large herd at different ages with different stewardship needs, which requires a lot of land and intensive management to produce the best beef while caring for the land. 

We don’t raise grass to feed beef.  We graze beef to raise grass.  Our cowboys are horseback with the cattle daily to guide their grazing in a way that prunes and grooms the landscape in a stimulating way to encourage and promote plant growth, thus supporting the maximum soil community with is our carbon sequestration team. 

The new ranchland is in organic transition and our rangeland is historically and currently chemical free.  We are slowly replanting our pastures and hay fields with a more diverse array of species and we are using our cattle herds exclusively for the fertility of the fields.  We feed our cattle the hay that we produced back across the hay fields in the winter, where their manure, urine, and waste hay, add organic matter and nutrients back to the soil.
