What do Grassfed Cattle Eat During Winter?

This is a common question that our customers and those seeking to find a source for 100% Grassfed and Grass-finished Beef have asked us many times over the years.

So, I thought I'd take a few minutes to answer that question for how Seven Sons Farm keeps our cattle happy and fed when it's cold outside.

Watch this short video:

I bet you knew about the hay, but maybe the term "Stockpile Grazing" and how that's good for the cattle, soil health and the environment was a new concept for you.

I certainly hope you learned something and gained some confidence about the foods we serve and ship nationwide!

We know many families are starting to value more transparency in how their food is raised, so we welcome you to visit the farm anytime, meet us and see for yourself.

The best time of year to visit is during our Farm Wagon Ride Season.

Let me know of any questions below in the comments section.

Looking Back on a Diagnosis I Once Feared

My oldest son Bryton and I traveled to Lawrenceburg, Indiana (just outside Cincinnati) to compete in our very first Spartan Race together. Now, I’ve never been much of a fitness guy—but I’ve gotta say, that race turned out to be one of the most rewarding and special memories I’ve made with my son. Honestly, it’s the kind of milestone I may repeat with each of my kids as they reach their teenage years. But what really struck me was how grateful I felt just to be able to do something like this. 18 years ago, a doctor told me I had a lifelong illness that could make experiences like this impractical. So today, I want to share that story with you
