About the Farm
Background
Located in the uplands of the Santa Cruz River, the farm raises calves born on their ranch and moves them to a nearby farm after weaning. The farm has established itself as a provider of high-quality beef, focusing on the well-being of their cattle and the quality of their product.
Practices
The farm employs a method where cattle are raised on a diverse mix of annual forages suited to the local climate and soils. The cattle are pasture-raised and pasture-finished, living on green, grassy forages sustained by irrigation and summer rains. They are not fed any grains, ensuring a diet that is entirely grass-based. This approach emphasizes low-stress living conditions and high-quality care for the animals.
The Rest
The farm is dedicated to providing customers with the best beef possible, focusing on the natural and peaceful upbringing of their cattle.
