2020 Pasture Raised Angus - some grain is fed.
NO PRE SALES LEFT. ONLY INDIVIDUAL CUTS WILL BE AVAILABLE PICKUP OR ON MARKET WAGON SOON...
UPDATED WITH NEW AVERAGE NUMBERS FROM ACTUAL HANGING WEIGHTS.....
Pasture raised Angus and Black Baldies.
We are a sustainable agriculture farm.
We raise our cattle on great pasture but they do get a daily cup or so of supplement feed grains (they came to us used to hand feeding preparing for a feed lot, and we weaned them back over to grass but kept the routine to keep them oriented to us... and we like petting them in the mornings,) no daily antibiotics, no growth hormone, no steroids.
Earlier this year our steers came as yearlings from another local farm and the steers were just beginning grain fed and had to wean back over to pasture, so we basically just keep them used to us by giving a total of what was down to about a cup or two and is now about 5 or so cups of feed each in the mornings, which is heavier than normal while the bull is here and they are hopefully starting the girls first pregnancies. We occasionally supplement minerals by block as needed through the season based on how they are doing with the weather.
We love all of our animals and interact with them every day. If they need something they will get whatever our vet recommends for their health and safety. We’ve been fortunate and have had no issues this year and have some great looking cattle.

3 - After we are paid, we will notify Trenton... somewhere close to this they will call you for your cut list when they are ready to discuss your order (normally right around the delivery date depending on their timing.)
4 - They will then process your meat according to your cut list and will contact you when it’s ready for pickup.
5 - When Processing and any curing is complete, you will pay Trenton Processing for the processing, and the USDA fee. You will then pickup your meat directly from Trenton Processing.
