Heartstone Farm 100% Grass-fed Ground Beef is leaner and has a healthier fat profile than conventionally-raised beef. Grass-fed beef is also higher in omega-3 fatty acids, conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), and other important nutrients. Additionally, our cattle are raised without the use of hormones or antibiotics, making it a healthier and more sustainable choice.

Conventional ground beef typically comes from cows that are raised on grain and feedlots. These cows may be given hormones and antibiotics to speed up growth and prevent disease. In contrast, Heartstone Farm 100% Grass-fed Ground Beef comes from cows that are raised on a 100% grass-fed diet and are not given hormones or antibiotics.

Our ground beef averages 85/15 fat content. But It's important to recognize the difference between fat in grass fed beef and fat in factory-farmed grain-fed beef. Grass fed beef has a lot more omega-3 fatty acids and CLA, which are both linked to health benefits.

Our beef tends to be a bit more expensive than conventional beef, but we believe that the benefits are well worth it. Our stew meat is not only more nutritious, but it's also raised sustainably and humanely on our own farm. We strive to keep our prices as competitive as possible, while still ensuring that our animals are treated well and our customers receive the highest quality meat. For more, read this blog article.
