Gather House Beef - Deposit
We keep a small beef herd for our family, so our meat is grown to meet our standards. For more information about beef shares, how we raise it, and how the process works, click here!
Rotationally Grazed - reduces the need for chemical dewormers and improves our land fertility
Clean Finished - Our beef is finished using a grass/grain hybrid finish, utilizing only clean, non-gmo, soy free grains.
All minerals are soy free and organic - this was a tricky one, many cattle minerals are GMO, soy based, and by-products of the industrial food system. Don’t be fooled some mineral mixes make it appear that don’t have soy, but then when you read the label it says “vegetable protein” i.e. soy mixed with other unpleasant genetically modified by-products) We ship all of our minerals from a holistic, organic vet in Wisconsin. The shipping price is shocking, but it is worth it for us. Cattle have to have mineral inputs to stay healthy.
Essential Oil Based Fly Spray - Yes this sounds crazy, but so are the chemicals in the fly sprays most farms employ. This method means we have to apply it daily and it is expensive. We also apply beneficial insects monthly across our farm that help control our fly population. (They actually make a chemical fly spray that you can pour on your cows feed and it actually makes them kill the flies. Yuck!)
No Growth Hormones - This one wasn’t even on my radar till I went to a cattle supply website and found that you can buy a pellet that you insert under the skin. It will make your cattle grow an extra 2-4 lbs a day. You will have to castrate any bulls before using this product because it can make their testicles disappear and don’t use this on any female cows you want to breed because it can deform their vagina, cervix, and uterus. Think buying grass-fed beef means you don’t need to worry, think again! Relavor-G and Synovax One Grass are designed especially for grass-fed cattle.
