About the Farm
Background
Red Mountain Grass Fed Beef operates at the base of Red Mountain in premium wine country. Known for their high standards, they never use grains, antibiotics, fertilizers, chemicals, or growth hormones. The farm prides itself on producing clean food and often exceeds certified standards, although they choose not to pursue certification. Typically, all their steers are pre-ordered, but occasional cancellations allow for new customers. The farm emphasizes a stress-free environment for both cattle and the harvest process, ensuring the best quality beef.
Practices
The farm employs a no-till policy and hand chops weeds with machetes, avoiding the use of diesel tractors, GMO seeds, and fertilizers. Cattle are rotated between pastures every 5-7 days to allow the grass to recover and to control fly populations. The land boasts a healthy earthworm population, which helps maintain soil health by mixing manure and organic materials. The farm's practices prevent soil compaction, chemical runoff, and fossil fuel pollution. The cattle enjoy a peaceful life with access to shade and sprinklers for cooling off during hot days. The farm mimics natural grazing patterns to sequester carbon and maintain a robust ecosystem.
The Rest
Red Mountain Grass Fed Beef is dedicated to providing healthy, natural food without growth hormones or antibiotics. They emphasize ethical, low-stress harvests and respect for the animals' natural instincts. The farm also offers grain-finished beef for customers who prefer a fattier cut, partnering with other vetted farms that follow the same ethical protocols. Visitors are welcome to learn about the farm's practices and bring their children for an educational experience.
