GRASS-FED BEEF RAISED IN AMERICA

Welcome to our family farm.

YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT EATS

Why Grass-Fed Beef?

HEALTH PROFESSIONALS

recommend grass-fed beef because it may reduce your risk of a number of diseases, including diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular disease and cancer.

Nutrition and wellness provider

recognize grass-fed beef for being nutritionally superior. “You are what you eat,” and “You are what you eat EATS.”

Environmentalist

appreciate the sustainable agricultural practices that form the base of its solar production model.

Animal welfare advocates

favor grass-fed beef because it allows for healthier animals, raised with respect. They are animals that are raised in a manner that provides the fulfillment of their natural behavioral instincts – grazing on pasture.

Consumers

seek grass-fed beef as an alternative to the gigantic “factory farms” and feedlots in industrial beef production, where animals are fed low-level antibiotics, hormones, an aberrant diet, and chemicals to speed gain. They are rediscovering the quality and care of products that are raised with pride on American family farms.

NUTRIENT HIGHLIGHTS

Health Benefits of Grass-Fed Beef

  • Excellent source of high-quality protein, iron, zinc, selenium, phosphorous and the B-complex vitamins
  • Lower in fat and calories – grass-fed beef has the same amount of fat as skinless chicken breast (½ to ⅓ lower total fat than feedlot beef). A 16-oz. grass-fed steak has approximately 264 fewer calories than feedlot beef
  • Higher in Omega-3s – the “good” fats that are heart friendly, brain enhancing and cancer-risk reducing
  • High in CLA (conjugated linoleic acid) – grass-fed beef is the richest source of the “good” fat, which reduces cancer and cardiovascular disease risks
  • Higher in Vitamin E – grass-fed beef has four times more of this antioxidant and anti-aging nutrient
  • Higher in carotenoids – grass-fed beef has four times more beta-carotene than feedlot beef.
  • Safer – grass-fed beef is millions-fold lower in E. coli and carries no risk of Mad Cow Disease

A HOLISTIC APPROACH

Our Standards

Our cattle are born, raised and finished on open grass pastures in the rolling hills of Southern Missouri.

We practice a holistic approach to farm management, which sustains and nourishes the environment through pasture restoration and soil improvement. We take care of our animals and land with the upmost respect – because in turn they take care of us.

All beef raised by Rain Crow Ranch is BORN, RAISED AND PROCESSED in the USA.

FAMILY-OWNED and Operated

Our Story

rain crow ranch family farm

Rain Crow Ranch, located in the rolling hills of the Southern Ozarks, has successfully combined science with the artisan way of raising authentic, sustainable, flavorful grass-fed beef that has been long since abandoned by the industrial beef industry.

Over the past 20 years, Rain Crow Ranch has refined the genetic identity of our Angus-bred cattle. With a variety of more than nine lush grasses, we produce our signature, Rain Crow Ranch American Grass-fed Beef.

As an American family farm, we embrace animal welfare by never subjecting our animals to confinement or industrial feedlots. Our cattle have never been administered antibiotics, growth hormones or animal by-products.

Rain Crow Ranch maintains rotational grazing with a 100% grass-fed diet, which reduces fossil fuel consumption, erosion and toxic run-off. Rain Crow Ranch is certified 100% Grassfed by the American Grass Fed Association.

Our family takes pride in presenting to you the “Healthiest Beef on the Planet.”
