After the carcasses have been aged and hand-cut, the meat is then vacuum sealed in premium easy-tear, BPA-free packaging. This packaging is designed to seal completely around each cut of meat, meaning the edging of the package can survive slight damage without compromising the vacuum seal. Once the product has been packaged, it is then immediately weighed, labeled, and flash-frozen to preserve freshness and flavor.
The idea that food is infinite is a myth. At Ferguson Farms, we embrace the importance of valuing every cut of meat—not just popular ones like chicken breasts. Supporting small, ethical farms means choosing a sustainable food system that respects the environment, reduces waste, and values humane practices. By purchasing a variety of cuts, you’re helping create a resilient and ethical food system while enjoying delicious, nutrient-dense, grass-fed meats. Start making a difference today by exploring our selection.

The post also covers how grass-fed beef is produced using sustainable practices like rotational grazing, which promotes better soil health and biodiversity. It explains the difference between grass-fed and grass-finished beef and offers tips for cooking grass-fed beef.

This blog clarifies the differences between pasture-raised and grass-fed meat. Grass-fed beef refers to cattle that primarily eat grasses but may be finished on grains, while pasture-raised animals roam freely on open pastures and consume a more varied diet. Both methods offer health benefits, but pasture-raised focuses more on animal welfare and ethical treatment. Grass-fed meat tends to be leaner and higher in omega-3 fatty acids, while pasture-raised meat is typically more flavorful. Both options support sustainable farming practices, making them better choices for the environment and health.
