Did you know it's World Environment Day? Here's what that means to us: cattle raised in harmony with the environment.
Our cattle are rotationally grazed. We’ve established and maintain this type of production system for a myriad of reasons. First and foremost, it creates the most agriculturally possible “natural way-of-life” for our cattle.
Well-managed rotational grazing systems mimic the grazing patterns of bison herds; which once freely roamed the expansive American west. Secondly, this type of production system gives the forages an opportunity to be rested and restored between grazings. It mitigates the potential for overgrazing, and therefore sustains forage vitality and variety. Thirdly, a properly managed rotational grazing system creates a thick swath of forages with deep roots. The roots keep the soil in place, thus minimizing the potential for erosion. The canopy disperses water evenly and keeps the soil underneath cool and hospitable for organic life. Thick swaths of forage also keep unwanted weeds from being able to take root and compete for sunlight. As a result, we are able to avoid the need for herbicidal application to any of our pastures.
Obviously, we practice sustainability. Being independent of chemicals and less dependent on fossil fuels and heavy machinery sets us apart from conventional operations. Our non-industrial (organic) practices are environmentally friendly. Our method of farming promotes organic build up in the soils of our farms. Highly organic soils retain and utilize the deposited carbon (the most important element on Earth and the essence of life). Good forage management, a fundamental aspect of our operation, keeps carbon in the soil and permits less of it to enter the atmosphere (CO2). The responsibility to be good stewards of the land on which we work is not something we take lightly.
