Other FAQs
Where is your farm located?
Our farm is located 7 miles NE of Bismarck. You can see our farm from I-94 on the north side; we're just about 2 miles away from McDowell Dam!
What does grass-finished mean?
Grass-finished means that our cattle and sheep are 100% grass-fed, raised on pasture from birth to finish. They are never fed any grain EVER but are truly finished with a good fat cover and marble well due to the diverse plants they graze on. Our cattle typically finish out at 30 months of age or less and 1100 lbs.
Are your pigs and hens corn and soy free?
YES. Our laying hens and pastured pigs are fed a mix of non-GMO, regeneratively grown grains that we grow here on our farm. We primarily feed them a mix of oats, peas, and barley. They are also supplemented with oyster shell to improve shell quality and scraps from our no-till garden in the summertime. They also get to feast on whatever insects they find out on pasture.
Are all your animals raised on your farm?
All of our animals, except for our pasture-raised chicken, are raised on Brown's Ranch. Our friends David and Mariah Boatwright down in Sedalia, Missouri raise our chickens for us. They use the same growing practices as us and are better equipped to handle larger volumes of meat birds due to the processing facilities that are available to them there. Their chickens are fed a mixture on non-GMO corn and soy.
