John's Great Grass Fed Beef
Raised in peaceful Calaveras pastures—naturally!
Grass fed beef--healthier for the consumer, the animals and the environment.
- Our beef is not given any antibiotics, hormones or other growth stimulants.
- Because our beef is fed only grass and occasionally a small amount of hay, we know for a fact that they do not eat any animal products, candy or other unsavory things.
- Research shows that the ratio of Omega 6 fats to Omega 3 fats in grass fed beef is in the healthy range, while in grain fed beef it is not.
- Even feeding grain for a short 30 - 60 day "finishing" period greatly reduces the benefits of raising on grass.
- Our cattle live in natural grassy pastures rather than crowded and unsanitary feed yards.
- Grass-fed beef is loaded with natural minerals and vitamins, plus it’s a great source of CLA (conjugated linoleic acid), a fat that reduces the risk of cancer, obesity, diabetes, and a number of immune disorders.
- Most beef sold in stores, even health food stores, is not natural “real beef”. Even though it may be organic, the cattle are fed grains, and grains are not what cattle are designed to eat—grass is! Beef, in its natural grass-fed state, is quite different from grain fed beef and is actually a health food.
- Our beef is DELICIOUS, TENDER and JUICY!

Did you know that cattle in feedlots are frequently given feed that includes the blood of mammals, and excrement, feathers, and spilled feed swept from chicken coops? This disgusting practice risks spreading disease and is LEGAL under existing FDA rules. Over two years ago an FDA commissioner said that these items would be banned in feed but they still have not been. (Information from Consumer Reports, July 2006)
** Ever heard of Garbage In -- Garbage Out? A natural life spent grazing in pastures means there is no chance of our cattle eating any unwholesome materials like those--just good clean and natural grass. **
