Our Food — Begins at the Farm
Never Fed Drugs Or Antibiotics*
*Our natural production practices eliminates the need for sub therapeutic (daily fed low level dose) medications that are commonly used in confinement production systems. However, in certain cases to prevent animals from death or suffering we do allow for limited use of therapeutic (spot treatment) medication. In such cases the prescribed withdrawal period is doubled before animals are ever harvested. We feel that this exception is only practical to ensure wise stewardship practices and ethical treatment of our livestock.
Grass-Fed (No Grain)
100% of the diet of our grassfed animals consists of freshly grazed pasture and stored grasses (hay or grass silage.) Free-choice minerals supplentations may also be given as needed.
Pasture-Raised
As the seasons allow annimals are raised in the open pasture or field.
Seasonally Accommodated
When you see this protocol associated with our products, it simply means that during the winter our animals are provided with a shelter or barn to keep warm as needed for protection from harsh weather. Larger animals such as cattle and hogs generally only require simple windbreaks or huts to keep warm. However small animals generally require an enclosed area such as a deep-bedded greenhouse that provides natural heat and light.
