The basics

What is
pasture
raised,
exactly?

The USDA doesn’t legally define “pasture-raised” for beef. So a lot of labels lie. Here’s what the words actually mean — and what to ask the rancher when you call.

01

Grass-fed

vs. grass-finished. The difference is the last 90 days.

02

Pasture-raised

vs. free-range. Free-range is a tiny door to a tiny yard.

03

Certified Organic

AGW, Regenerative, Animal Welfare Approved — what they actually verify.

04

“Natural”

Means nothing. A regulatory ghost. Walk past it.

05

The 90-day question

The one question that separates the real farms from the rest.
