We raise our beef cattle during the summer outside, in the fresh air and sunshine on nothing but the best food source for them - 100% grass! And since they're outside in a good, clean environment for living, they are very healthy animals, thus never needing antibiotics. Our cattle are never given any synthetic hormones and steroids.

Unfortunately, American’s at large have diets too high in Omega-6 and lacking greatly in Omega-3. Cattle raised on grain are higher in Omega-6, taking it from a healthy to unhealthy balance and raising the risk of heart attacks or strokes in human consumers. Grass is rich in Omega-3 and Beef raised on grass have shown to have a healthy balance between the two essential fatty acids, giving you a more rounded diet.
