Our Partner Farms

In our 50+ years of experience in the food industry and food production, we’ve learned that the path to superior flavor and nutritional quality starts with the genetics of the animals, and how they are raised.

Thousand Hills Lifetime Grazed

Clearwater, Minnesota

Since our founding in 2003, Thousand Hills has been focused on one Mission: To nourish the soil, the plants, cattle, and people by holistically grazing cattle for their lifetime.

What began as a passion to simply share the nutritional benefits of Lifetime Grazed 100% Grass Fed Beef with more people has evolved into a full embrace of regenerative agriculture—with its many critical benefits to people and our lands.

Hickory Nut Gap

Fairview, North Carolina

Today, we are proudly helping cultivate a new movement. One that combines the richness of the unique Appalachian terroir (soil, water, micro-climate, pasture & forest) with the historic craft-maker culture of the region.

Scientific research has proven that removing stress from the animal and allowing it to thrive in a natural environment produces better quality product with greater nutritional value. We believe raising animals with care and respect is the right thing to do. Farm animals that are able to exhibit behaviors as they would in nature are happier and healthier. We honor and respect that philosophy by exercising care and concern for the well-being of our animals.

Cabriejo Ranch

West Plains, Missouri

Cabriejo™ Ranch produces American Grassfed Association and Savory’s Land to Market certified lamb and beef from our holistically managed pastures. We are enjoying watching the natural resources within our influence flourish and regenerate, improving water infiltration and retention, increasing biodiversity and economic output through higher stocking rates.

Cabriejo Ranch also provides restoration and regenerative grazing services (focusing on Solar Farms, Wildlife Habitat Areas, & Cover Crop Harvesting) in many lower Midwest states, healing and improving the ecological health of the soils with holistic planned grazing of cattle and sheep.

NorthStar Bison

Cameron, Wisconsin

The Bisons' natural grazing instincts mimic the most innovative modern grazing techniques. Their nomadic, herding patterns keep them moving onto fresh forage while leaving a wake of well-trampled, well-fertilized land to rest and regenerate but also build new top soil creating increased fertility and drought tolerance. Their sharp hooves splay out as they walk, cutting vegetation and aerating soil creating the most ideal conditions for bug life which are the foundation of healthy soil.

Up until the 1930's, regenerative farming & ranching was the only way. The modern industrial crop farming phenomenon changed the game. CAFOs = cheaper food, higher profits, and far greater control of outcomes. It's manageable, however, CAFOs don’t play by the rules of better for the land, the animals, or people but yet regenerative product pricing and eating experience quality attributes get compared to feedlot beef or CAFO chicken on the regular… Like feedlot/CAFO is the new baseline of expectation and as you move up the price ladder, you subconsciously gradually elevate consumer experience expectation. While we believe with our entire beings that raised, harvested, and processed as nature intended creates an amazing consumer experience, that’s not the only goal. The goal is to raise, harvest, and process meat as nature intended for the health & betterment of the land, animals, and people. Food you can actually feel good about eating.

Nature's Pantry Farm

Lafayette, Minnesota

Why is everyone so sick? This was the question that started it all for the folks at Nature's Pantry Farm. Growing up on the Standard American Diet (lots of processed, sugary foods) it never occurred to them that the food we were eating could impact our health.

They began researching the connection between true nutrition and health.  They found that eating the right foods can actually heal chronic diseases as well as prevent many others from occurring. They also realized that the way the majority of food is produced today - hormones, chemicals, and antibiotics - adds to the development of illness.

With this knowledge in hand, they've completely revamped their farming practices and are now committed to raising fresh, wholesome, pasture-raised food for their family and community.

 After years of researching the link between diet and health, they now understand the importance of eating unprocessed, chemical-free, pastured-raised foods. Unfortunately, these types of food aren't easy to find.

So they decided to take matters into our own hands and set out to raise our own food.

In the process, they went from a conventional dairy operation to a Regenerative Farm that is committed to healing the land and providing nourishing food for their community. 

They are blessed to supply 250 families with farm fresh food including 100% grass-fed beef, pastured pork and chicken, pastured free range eggs and raw milk.

Stemple Creek Ranch

Tomales, California

Our goal is to work in harmony with Mother Nature to promote optimal biodiversity that ensures the long term health and productivity of the ranch. We use regenerative, organic agricultural practices, which means we seek to enhance and rehabilitate our entire ecosystem by focusing on soil health and increasing carbon in our land.

Most of our pastureland is Certified Organic, and our free range beef and lamb are 100% grass fed and grass finished. We rotationally graze our stock on open pasture from birth to harvest. They are never supplemented with grains, corn, or soy, and never receive artificial hormones, growth promotants, or antibiotics. Our pigs are humanely raised in large outdoor pens where they enjoy a vegetarian diet with plenty of room to socialize and express natural behaviors.

Our animals never see a feed lot. Ever.
