Our local Alberta beef comes from naturally raised grass fed and grass finished young cattle who have no grain in their diets. We use no pesticides or chemical fertilizers on our land. Rather than rushing to harvest sooner with the use of growth hormones, our cattle grow the natural way, slower and safer. The meat is dry-aged for three weeks. Cutting and wrapping can be done to your specifications by our small local artisan butcher.
Cattle love lush varied high-protein forage. They are not designed to eat grain or soy, even though they may find it a high carbohydrate treat, like candy. Our cattle don't get any grain, for their own good and yours. Their stomachs are not meant to handle grain well. When they eat grain their naturally alkaline PH balance is altered and their systems become acidic. They then are more subject to disease, and very soon their fat transforms from Omega-3 to Omega-6, not good for them or us. Grazing is good for the cattle and for the land, part of the natural life cycle of the grasses in our area.
