Frequently Asked
Questions
What is the difference between grass fed and 100% grass fed beef?
Grass fed beef is produced from cattle that eat grass at any time during their life, whereas 100% grass fed beef is produced from cattle that consumed only forage diets from birth to harvest. Animals that have consumed grass their entire life are grass finished. Grass Run Farms is 100% grass fed beef. Our cattle consume forage diets their entire lives.

Are Grass Run Farms cattle fed grain?
Grass Run Farms cattle never receive grain. Our program protocol does not allow producers to feed grain by-products. During the winter, cattle are fed stored forages that are high in fiber.
Are the Grass Run Farms cattle fed soy?
Our protocol does allow for our farmers to feed cattle soy hulls. Soy hulls are a grain-free fiber and they provide a source of energy and roughage for the rumen (digestive system of the cow). This is never a large portion of the diet and cattle never receive any soybean, soybean meal or other soy by-product.
