Imagine a simpler time …
Remember when your parents or grandparents told you about life on the farm? The animals were free to roam bright open spaces and graze on fresh green grass. Those were the days when farmers worked hard to produce nutritious, simple food to support their family and nearby community.
The producers of the Manitoba Grass-Fed Beef Association feel the same way about production. All of their grass-fed beef is produced in the most humane way possible. They are also strong proponents of the environment and strive to protect the land and waterways through managed pasture grazing and trough or pipeline watering systems while maintaining a healthy work/life balance.
