Here at Neptune Farm, we are a 126-acre organic farm located in southwestern New Jersey - about six miles away from the Delaware Bay. We specialise in organic grassfed raise beef cattle and sheep for bulk sale to restaurants and local households within our region.
Our farm has been certified organic since 1992.
One of the questions we get asked a lot is not about organic meats - but what exactly is Grassfed Meat.
Unfortunately, it depends on who you ask as you'll get different answers from different farms or organisations.
There are some feedlot operators who have been lobbying the USDA for a grassfed label. This label would apply to almost any beef or lamb cattle that is raised in the US as nearly all of them begin life as range animals.
However, there are experts who have studied the benefits of pasture-raised livestock and they find that cattle should be fed only on grasses and other forage legumes for their entire life cycle. This does not only make our meat much healthier, but is also better for the animal as well.
Here, our lamb is 100% grassfed and our beef are fed tiny amounts of organic corn or wheat during freezing weather. That is, our beef is about 97% grassfed whilst our lamb is 100%.
