In their words.
The Homestead is a 125-year family farm in the rolling hills of Grant County, Wisconsin. We converted this dairy farm into a ranch to raise grass-fed beef. Our cattle are born in late spring on the open range, raised by the mother cow on chemical-free milk and grass and watered at a spring-fed stream. Grass-fed beef is often called "beyond organic." The average serving of beef has lived on four farms, traveled through five states, and spent months confined in feed lots eating things cows were not meant to eat. Our cattle spend their entire lives on the range, eat lots of grass, have a cool drink and lay in the shade to think about things. The result is lean, clean, tender and reasonably priced meat. Processed in the fall, seven miles from the pasture at a state-inspected facility. Order a few packages of selected cuts or quarters, halves or whole animals cut to order. Farm pick-up preferred, but we'll deliver within reason. No need to pay Farmers' Market premiums for healthy food. Give us a call. We'd love to meet you and be your farmers.
