Keeping things simple and natural has been the motto since 1972. We strive to continue producing products following these methods while also meeting the organic standards established by Pro-Cert Canada.
Before we had become certified, our farming methods were still simple and natural. The land we farmed was pure; no chemicals, pesticides, or herbicides were used on the crops. The only fertilizer used was the manure from our cattle, which we would spread on our fields.
Our cattle are raised on the home farm, on clean and pure soil where they graze 100 acres of pasture. Our steers had the same luxury, with the exception that they are given an organic mixture of peas, oats, and barley for more marbling and flavour. The grain mixture given to the steers is sown, grown, and harvested by us. Our cattle are raised naturally with no vaccines, hormone injections, or enhancers. They just purely live off the land.
Like anything, there have been standard operating procedures and guidelines put in place by Pro-Cert to ensure the proper steps to an organic farm and herd are maintained. However, much of these guidelines reflect our original motto of a simple and natural way to raise the cattle. The only small thing that has changed in our farming methods is the simplicity of technology and newer farm equipment to help get the job done more efficiently and faster.
