Our specialty beef is unique because it is a special breed known as Blonde d'Aquitaine, and it's raised locally with a focus on quality and reasonable farming practices. It's naturally lean, tender, and delicious due to our careful breeding, raising, and feeding practices.

Our beef is sourced primarily from our farm, we also supplement from local and regional farm partners known for their quality and farming practices. They must meet or exceed various criteria for us to accept their products.
Our beef is grass-fed and hybrid-finished. What this means is that our cattle are fed grass, hay, and related natural feeds throughout their lives. During the finishing process we continue to use grass and hay feeds but also supplement with a variety of alternative feeds including silage. This produces a unique flavor and nutrient profile while still providing lean healthy meats, and just the right amount of marbling on certain cuts.

Our beef is renowned for its rich, distinct flavor. It's naturally lean but tender and boasts a well-balanced taste that's both savory and delicious.
