About the Farm
Background
With over 30 years in the business, Hobbs Hereford Farm has established itself as a trusted provider of purebred, line-bred, registered Polled Hereford beef cattle. Certified as a Minnesota Quality Beef Producer, the farm prides itself on delivering high-quality beef from pasture to table through local USDA certified locker services.
Practices
The farm employs a 'beyond organic' approach, avoiding hormones, pesticides, herbicides, insecticides, commercial fertilizers, animal byproduct feeds, and vaccinations. The cattle are fed an all-natural diet of grass and hay, supplemented with natural vitamins, minerals, and sea salt. During the summer, they graze on rich pasture grasses, while in winter, they consume a mix of cured and vacuum-ensiled hay to maintain high levels of omega-3 fatty acids. The cattle are raised without grain, ensuring they fatten naturally and remain healthy and relaxed throughout the year.
The Rest
Hobbs Hereford Farm emphasizes quality control by maintaining a close relationship with their processor, monitoring the slaughtering, cutting, and wrapping processes to ensure high standards. The farm sells directly to individuals and families, offering delivery to the Twin Cities, Brainerd, and Alexandria. Their grass-fed beef is noted for its higher levels of 'good fats' like Omega-3s and CLA, which contribute to heart health and other benefits. The farm's commitment to animal welfare and customer satisfaction is evident in their hands-on approach from breeding to final product delivery.
