Natural Grass Fed Beef
Our natural grass fed beef comes from our herd of Angus cross cattle. All of our beef comes from cattle that are born, bred and raised on our farm and processed at a local government inspected abattoir where it is dry aged for at least 14 days. Our cattle are naturally raised which means that are free of any antibiotics, synthetic growth hormones and animal by-products and they only receive feed which is free of pesticides, chemical fertilizers and GMO’s. Our natural grass fed beef has been humanely raised on our farm using regenerative farming practices.
During the summer the cattle are rotationally grazed. The cattle are moved daily to fresh pasture, our pastures contain a mix of wild and tame legumes, grasses and forbs which are all an important part of the cattle’s diet. During the winter the cows are fed alfalfa/grass hay bales free choice, usually done out in the field to help spread nutrients for next year’s crop.
Whole/Half/Half a side
- Cost is $4.00 per pound on the dressed weight of the animal (also known as the hanging beef weight). You also pay the local butcher for processing your animal which is approximately $1.00 per pound on the dressed weight depending on how you choose to get it cut up and packaged.
- A typical half of beef from Hodgins Farm weighs approximately 250-400lbs on the dressed weight. Depending on how you choose to get your beef cut up, you will get approximately 180-260lbs of meat for your freezer. Deboning steaks and roasts will yield less weight but not less meat.
