100% Grass-Fed Beef

I’m a Grass Herbivore

As a cow, I am a ruminant. Basically, that means I chew my cud. The largest pouch of my stomach, the rumen, can hold as much as a 55-gallon trashcan. 

I love to eat tasty, tender grass at my own pace in my own space. As a ruminant, it’s hard for me to digest grain. I’ve heard of other cows crammed by the hundreds in feedlots where they’re fed mostly grain. Unfortunate. Cows raised in these conditions frequently develop health disorders from their grain diet. And meat from these cows has a higher chance of harboring bad bacteria, like acid-resistant E-coli. 

Fresh air and sunshine and a place to stare dreamily into space. That’s my style.

Not just any grass, but the best

Thistle Creek Farms, one of Green Acres’ top-notch providers, sources the finest grasses from around the world to feed their cattle. Hailing from the Czech Republic, Denmark, Ireland, New Zealand, and Romania, these deep-rooted, mineral-rich grasses translate into delicious, healthy beef. 

25 years and counting. At Thistle Creek, the cattle graze year-round in vast pastures, moving to new grass once and often twice a day.
