Are We Organic?
In the past, we've boldly renounced the term "organic" when referring to our beef. But, we'd like to switch our narrative.
​
First, what does the term "organic" mean?
​
The "organic" label is outlined and upheld by the USDA. In order to qualify for this label, you are required to meet specific standards. We've listed every point of criteria below.​​
Final Notes to Readers ---
The overarching theme as to why we don't qualify for "organic" labeling are our land management and preservation methods. To us, preserving and protecting our vulnerable rangelands and pastures is the most important way we could pay homage to not only the farmers and ranchers that came before us, but also our small community. Our surrounding areas have been greatly affected by fires, but also invasive species that suffocate, and eventually take over a land that was once filled with native flora and fauna.
​
We will always do what is best for the individual animal, you; the consumer, and the land we so graciously call home. We will NOT compromise the health and wellness or quality of life of any one animal to bind ourselves to the "organic" label. Individual animal health, land management, and recourse conservation will ALWAYS be more valuable than any flashy organic labeling or extra income we could make off of the "organic" standards set by the USDA.
​
We may never don that signature green and white seal on our packaging, but please know it's for all the right reasons.
