Food Isn’t Unlimited: How Your Choices Support Sustainable Farming

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.

Guide to Grass-Fed Beef

This guide provides a comprehensive overview of grass-fed beef, explaining its health benefits, ethical farming practices, and environmental advantages. Grass-fed beef is leaner and richer in omega-3 fatty acids, CLA, and antioxidants compared to grain-fed beef. 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. Overall, the guide highlights why grass-fed beef is a healthier, more ethical, and environmentally friendly choice.

Pasture-Raised vs. Grass-Fed

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.
