What is Natural “Never-Ever” Farming?

Practices that ensure animals are raised without the use of antibiotics, added hormones, or any synthetic growth promotants at any point in their life. This approach prioritizes natural and humane animal husbandry, focusing on ethical methods that promote animal welfare, and the production of healthier, cleaner, higher-quality meat.


What is Sustainable Farming?
Sustainable ranchers look to preserve their lands’ viability for generations to come. They work with—and not against—nature to manage their land and care for their animals. The sustainable practices we look for include building healthy soil, preventing erosion, prudent water conservation prioritizing animal welfare and minimizing air and water pollution.

What is Regenerative Farming?
Going a step above never-ever and sustainable farming, Regenerative Agriculture involves a system of farming practices that restore grasslands, increase biodiversity and enrich the soil, which in turn helps to fight climate change by capturing and sequestering carbon in the dirt and aboveground biomass. Measurable, empirical, positive environmental impact.

What is Humane Certified?
Humane certified practices ensure animals are treated with care and respect throughout their lives. This includes providing proper shelter, sufficient space, access to fresh water, and humane handling during transport and slaughter.

What is Free Range?
Free-range animals have the freedom to roam outdoors, allowing them to express natural behaviors. This practice improves animal welfare and produces meat with a better nutritional profile.

What is Hormone Free?
Hormone-free means animals are raised without the use of synthetic hormones, ensuring a more natural growth process and healthier meat for consumers.

What is Antibiotic Free?
Antibiotic-free means no antibiotics are administered to animals at any stage of their life. If an animal requires antibiotics, they are removed from the program, ensuring the meat remains antibiotic-free.

What is Vegetarian Fed?
Vegetarian-fed animals are provided a strictly vegetarian diet with no animal by-products, promoting cleaner, healthier meat and supporting the animals' natural health.

What is 100% Grass Fed & Finished?
Grass-fed and finished means animals are fed grass throughout their entire lives, never consuming grain. This produces leaner meat with higher beneficial nutrients like Omega-3 fatty acids.

What is Pasture Raised?
Pasture-raised animals are raised outdoors, grazing freely in open pastures. This allows them to enjoy natural feeding and movement, improving their well-being.

What is Natural?
Natural means animals are raised without artificial ingredients or processing aids, resulting in a cleaner product with fewer additives and preservatives.

What is Non-GMO?
Non-GMO means the animals' feed contains no genetically modified organisms, ensuring a more natural, sustainable farming system, and healthier meat for consumers.
