SOIL TO STEAK

Healthy soil, healthy cattle, healthy beef

We focus on increasing the microbiology in our soil. Everything good that follows — the forage, the cattle, the beef on your plate — starts with what is alive underground.

Living Soil

We feed the ground first. Healthy soil is the foundation everything else is built on.

Microbes

Soil microbes unlock minerals and nutrients in a form plants can actually use.

Dense Forage

Biodiverse forage grown in living soil carries far more nutrition per bite.

Healthy Cattle

Fermented forage multiplies the nutrients and health benefits of grass-fed beef

Better Beef

The result is increased marbling, omega-balanced, nutrient dense beef

No hormones, no antibiotics, no pesticides, no insecticides, and no synthetic fertilizers

IT STARTS IN THE GROUND

We Feed the Soil First

Microbiology is the foundation.

Most ranching starts by asking what to feed the cow. We start one step earlier and ask what feeds the ground. By building the microbial life in our soil, we grow forage that carries more minerals and more real nutrition — and that shows up in the cattle, and then on your plate.

Healthy soil, healthy cattle, healthy beef, healthy humans. It runs in that order.

THE PROCESS

What is Fermented Feed?

  • Biodiverse forage harvested at peak nutrition
  • Innoculated them with microbes
  • Sealed to allow fermentation

The microbes break the forage down allowing the cows to utilize more of the plant’s nutrition which results in higher nutrient dense meat and better marbling.

MEASURED, NOT CLAIMED

What the lab actually found

1.26:1

Omega-6 to Omega-3 ratio

8×

More omega-3 than the grain-fed sample

87/156

Compounds significantly higher

2×

Antioxidant & anti-inflammatory activity

Grain-fed beef commonly tests above a 20:1 omega-6 to omega-3 ratio. Figures above compare fermented-forage-fed beef with grass-fed and grain-fed samples.

THE DATA

The research behind the difference

Independent laboratory analysis compared fermented-forage-fed beef against grass-fed and grain-fed beef across 156 measured compounds.

87 of 156 compounds increase significantly
Acylcarnitines, plasmalogens, lysolecithins, phospholipids and omega-3 fatty acids all rise with fermented forage.

Roughly twice the antioxidant activity
Fermented-forage-fed beef scored about double the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity of grass-fed and grain-fed beef.

CLEAN FEED

Fermentation mitigates environmental toxins

The same microbes that unlock nutrition also break down things you do not want in your beef.

28.8 → 0

Glyphosate

Tested at 28.8 ng/g fresh, down to 13.2 after three months of fermentation, and undetectable at six months.

98.7%

Ergot Alkaloid Reduction

Treated fescue dropped from 2,864 PPB to 37 PPB in 60 days — well under the 200 PPB safety limit.

LAND REGENERATION

Beef Gives Back

 

Cattle are an integral part of the natural ecosystem that feeds soil microbiology and sequesters carbon from the atmosphere.
