How Diet and Environment Shape the Beef You Eat
The way cattle are raised has a direct influence on the meat they produce. When you hear terms like grass-fed, grain-finished, or pasture-raised, these refer to how the cattle lived and what they ate.
Farm-raised cattle with regular access to pasture tend to move more and experience a more natural lifestyle. This can create meat with a denser texture and a robust flavor profile. Many local farmers take pride in raising cattle with thoughtful routines, balanced diets, and individual attention, which can be reflected in the final product.
