Grass Fed Beef
Our cows are able to roam freely, eating healthy grass and enjoying fresh East Tennessee air and sunshine. We work to mimic nature, and using this natural model of grazing, we heal the land, clean up the waterways, produce healthier grass, and feed the earthworms - which all increase the meat quality. And of course, no steroids, no antibiotics, no growth hormones, no feedlots or grain finishing - ever. We have two foundational breeds of cattle that we raise: South Poll which was developed specifically for grass fed beef production in the southeast and grass based Angus genetics.
The beef is dry-aged and hand-butchered the old fashioned way: by Mcbride Meats in New Hope, TN, by men and women whose names we know, using knives, one beef at a time. It is a long, slow process; it takes 2 to 3 years to produce one beef - but we know you would not want things any other way. We have scaled back our beef productiuon in order to focus more on growing our flock of laying hens and our sheep flock so we have a limited supply of grass fed beef each year available at our on Farm Trading Post wich is open every Saturday from 9-12 Central time.
