WHAT IS ANTIBIOTIC AND HORMONE FREE?
Raised the way nature intended, following the same guidelines as organic, the only difference between organic and antibiotic and hormone free meat is in their grain. Often times our ranchers that are in transition to becoming Certified Organic producers must wait between 3 to 5 years for their land to be Certifiable. During this time we sell their beef as Antibiotic and Hormone free. Antibiotic and hormone free cattle graze on grass, along with being fed a grain-based feed, free of animal by products.
