Kingbird Farm is proud to offer all
natural, entirely grass fed beef
raised on certified organic pasture.
We have a herd of Scottish highland cows.. These cows are crossed
with a Red
Angus bull from a nieghboring organic farm
for a high quality beef animal.
Calving is done in early spring just as the grass is coming on and
calves are
raised on their mothers. There they are grown slowly and
naturally on only grass
and hay and we do not feed any grain. They spend the grazing
season on rotationally managed
pastures and they winter outdoors with our workhorses eating high
quality grass/legume hay.
At approximately 18 months the beefers are processed by certified
organic butcher. They are handled and processed with care.
“Switching from grainfed to grassfed meat and dairy products gives you
a wealth of health benefits. First of all, you avoid all the
synthetic hormones, antibiotics, pesticide residues, and questionable
additives found in conventionally raised animals. But just as
important, you get these added nutritional benefits:
· Less fat
· Fewer calories
· More omega-3 fatty acids
· More CLA
· More beta-carotene
· A lower risk of E. coli
It’s important to keep in mind that all of the six benefits listed
above are the direct result of raising animals on fresh pasture.
Products from animals (beef) fed significant amounts of grain will not
have these benefits—even when the grain has been organically grown.”
