Oregon Country Non GMO Beef
In 1976, ranchers Doc and Connie Hatfield knew there had to be a better way to deliver the naturally raised beef products that consumers wanted, and a better way for ranchers to remain economically and environmentally sustainable.
In 1986, they began working with a group of their ranching neighbors to produce naturally raised beef for the marketplace. The group agreed to form the consumer driven beef marketing cooperative — Oregon Country Beef, which originally was comprised of 14 ranching families.
Oregon Country Beef is Non-GMO Project Verified. To achieve this verification each cooperative rancher providing Oregon Country beef is required to follow rigorous standards to feed cattle consistent to the standards of the Non-GMO Project. Each stage in the beef production including finishing facilities and packing plants are also required to comply with the standard. we are very proud to present our customers with a product with this high standard. Learn more about the ranchers and the company on their website.
Desert Mountain Grass Fed Beef
Wilsey Ranch is a family owned and operated ranch for over 30 years in Idaho, by fourth generation ranchers. Located in the Northern End of the Owyhee Mountains; they are one of the ranch families that provide beef to the Desert Mountain Grass-fed Beef co-op.
They have a strong belief that in order to produce an environmentally friendly, ethical product that it must start with healthy soil. In 2011 Ed and Debby were recognized for the many water projects, no till planting and pasture rotation as Owyhee Conservationist of the Year. Their cattle, a Devon and Simmental cross are bred to Akaushi bulls for a tender quality product. The cattle are bred to thrive on the desert soil, run on intensively managed range land in the Owyhee Mountains, feeding on a unique mix of grass and forbs. They supplement the cows with ranch-raised hay in the winter months, and they are finished on irrigated meadows in the summer. They are given no hormones, antibiotics, animal byproducts, or genetically modified feeds; the animals are handled humanely and with respect while providing them with a minimally stress free life.
