All of our Dexters are raised without exposure to chemicals of any kind.  We do not vaccinate, nor do we give medications unless necessary to deal with specific health issues.  They are never contacted by any pesticides either internally or externally.  We also do not utilize pesticides, herbicides or chemical fertilizers on our pastures.

100% Grass-Fed

Our herd is fed on native pastures.  Nutritious Bluestem and other prairie grasses constitute the majority of their diet, in addition to young weeds and brush that they also enjoy browsing.  While our pastures usually provide fresh green grasses year round, when rains have been sufficient we also bale Bluestem grasses from our pastures in the summer and fall to provide chemical-free supplemental hay during the winter months.

100% Non-GMO, Grain Free

Our Dexters are never fed any grains or cattle cubes of any kind.

100% Clean Living

Our Dexters are free to roam spacious pastures and a multitude of shady wooded areas.  We restrict the size of our herd to ensure that sufficient fresh grass is available, that hay can be made, and that our pastures do not become overgrazed.  Our calves run and play with both of their parents and enjoy significant interaction with us on a daily basis.

100% Respectfully Raised

Every member of our herd is treated with the greatest respect.  All, including those being raised for beef, receive individual, focused attention almost daily.  All are regularly brushed, petted and hugged.  Our Dexters are treated in a manner similar to how most people would treat their favorite pet.
