Our herd of 100% Grass Fed Red Devon cattle graze throughout the farm's luscious and biologically diverse pastures. Fresh air, sunshine, free choice minerals, and lots of grass keep the animals in optimal health. The pastures are certified organic, and we care for the animals as naturally as possible. The cattle help grow soil on the farm by cycling nutrients and regularly clipping the grass.

Red Devon Beef is simply superb. It is flavorful, tender, and juicy. Because our cattle are never fed grain, the beef has many health benefits not found in grain-finished meat. Compared to feedlot beef, beef from grass-fed animals is leaner, and has much higher levels of Omega-3 fatty acids, Conjugated Linoleic Acids (CLA), and Vitamin E. Boerson Farm beef is available by the cut at the Farmers Market, as an add-on share in our CSA program, as well as through our Online Farm Store.

Environmental Benefits of Grass Fed Beef

Beef from well-managed grazing and grass-fed operations are better for the environment than conventionally raised feed lot beef. We use fewer energy-intensive inputs and, by regularly moving animals to fresh pasture the cows spread manure more evenly and improve the quality and quantity of forage growth. This builds soil, reduces erosion and water pollution, increases carbon sequestration and preserves biodiversity and wildlife (Johnson 2002, FAO 2009, Pelletier 2010).
