Ruminants like the beef cattle at Blue Dirt Farm thrive on a diet of grass and forages! We carefully manage pastures and select the right genetics to achieve excellent results without the need to feed any grain. Research has shown superior nutritional profiles for 100% grass-fed ruminant meat products and great flavor should always be a part of it too!

Great grass finishing is an art! If you've been disappointed with gaminess or toughness of sub-par grass-fed meats give us a try and we'll win you over!

We believe our animals and the products that ultimately end up on the tables of our customers are healthier and tastier when soybeans or soy products are kept out of the feed, especially during the later stages of growth.  That's why we always use soy-free non GMO feed sources during the last several months before harvest for both hogs and turkeys.

Soy-free feed is grown regeneratively here at Blue Dirt Farm or purchased certified organic.

The feeds and forages grown and used at Blue Dirt Farm are ALWAYS free from GMO seeds and material. We strongly believe technology like this should only be used when there's a clear benefit for the animals and for the health of the soil and landscape. Genetically engineered traits that allow for the spraying of crops with toxic pesticides or harm insect life are not in the best interest of whoever or whatever is consuming the product and have no place here.  Furthermore, this is part of Blue Dirt Farm's strategy to keep glyphosate residue and other pesticides out of your food.  

Any crop harvested at Blue Dirt Farm for consumption by animals or people has NO sprays or chemical treatments of any kind.  We purchase certified organic feed grains and mixes or grow our own here on the farm using regenerative agriculture protocols.

Our animals live outside with fresh air and sunlight and are frequently moved during the growing season giving them access to diverse forages. Through careful management and by allowing plants long periods of regrowth and recovery we enhance ecological health of the land and it's great for animals too!

Pigs and turkeys don't just live on open pasture either!  That's why the cover of trees and shrubs is an important part of our management.  Nature is our ultimate guide for all the wheres, whys, and hows of keeping animals on a rich savanna-like habitat.
