Farm days don’t always make for exciting pictures… but they’re the ones that matter most. 🐄

Today was spent doing the routine things — feeding, checking cattle, fixing a few odds and ends, and making sure everything is set up for another good day tomorrow.

There’s something to be said for the quiet, ordinary days around the farm. They may not look like much, but they’re what keep it all going.

We’ve been so busy around the farm that social media has taken a back seat lately. 😅

The cattle have been soaking up the sunshine, the to-do list keeps growing, and the days seem to fly by this time of year. We’re still here—just spending more time in the pasture than on our phones!

New high tensile fencing went up around the farm this past week 🔥🐄

A strong perimeter fence is key for keeping the herd in, improving pasture management, and making rotational grazing work the way it should.

Soybean planting is rolling today 🌱🚜

We’re planting green into a living cover crop and will terminate it after planting. The cover crop helps protect against erosion, hold moisture, improve soil health, and keep living roots in the ground longer to feed the soil.

Those big yellow tanks on the planter are part of our in-furrow liquid nitrogen setup, allowing us to place nutrients right with the seed for a strong early start and better crop vigor.

Big shoutout to B&B Farms for helping us out with some custom farming work this spring — we appreciate the help getting another crop in the ground!

Sent out the real management team today… 👶🐶🚜

Mom’s behind the wheel, Tommy’s running quality control, and Lulu the ‘cattle dog’ is head of security (mostly guarding snacks).

This weekend, we made our rounds by checking fields and getting things ready to plant soybeans, including burning off fence lines and removing volunteer trees from them 🔥🌱

Of course, we had to swing by and check on Dad (Dustin)… make sure he wasn’t just ‘supervising’ from the pickup again. 👀
Report says he was working… for once.

Cover crops are coming up nicely, fields are drying up from recent rains, and management says we’re (mostly) on track.

Calving season is here!

Meet Lulu… our French Bulldog turned full-time cattle dog 🐄🐾

Now, she may not have the speed of a Border Collie or the grit of a Heeler… but what she does have is:
• a top speed of about 12 mph (downhill, wind at her back)
• a herding style best described as “light supervision”
• and a firm belief that barking from a safe distance is basically the same thing as working

The cows aren’t entirely convinced… but Lulu shows up, ready to clock in, waddle out, and put in a solid 3–5 minutes of effort before needing a break.

Honestly, morale has never been higher around here.

🐄 Know Your Beef 🥩

You’ve probably heard concerns about growth hormones in beef—and one of the biggest questions is about cancer risk.

Here’s the honest truth:

Some people worry that added hormones in cattle could be linked to certain cancers, particularly hormone-sensitive cancers like breast or prostate cancer. This concern comes from the idea that extra hormone exposure over time might influence how cells grow.

What does the science say?
Research has shown that beef from cattle treated with approved hormones is considered safe, and the actual hormone levels in beef are extremely low—often similar to or even lower than foods like eggs or dairy.

But we also understand this:
People want to limit any potential risks where they can—especially when it comes to their family’s food.

👉 That’s why we do not use added growth hormones in our cattle.

Our approach is simple:
• No added growth hormones
• No shortcuts—just time, feed, and care
• Beef raised the way we’d feed our own family

We’re not here to tell you what to think—we’re here to give you a choice and be transparent about how your beef is raised.

From our family to yours 🇺🇸
