Beta-Carotene
Jo Robinson, co-author of The Omega Diet
book provides the latest research about pasture-based farming through her
website,
www.eatwild.com. In her
book, Pasture Perfect , she outlines the following: grass fed meat has four
times more beta-carotene than conventional feedlot meat. Fat from grain fed
meat is stark white. The more carotenoids, the more creamy or golden the
color. Take a
look at the fat in Homespun Hill Farm meats, see the color, and know you are
getting some of the healthiest meat in America!
Omega-3's
Omega-3 fatty acids originate in green plants. Grass is a rich source of
Omega-3's. Animals that graze on grass plus are finished solely on grass
have more Omega-3's in their meat, eggs, and dairy products.
Reduced fat
With Homespun Hill Farm grass-fed meats, you
will find that your burger patties will turn out about the same size as when
you place them in the skillet or on the grill.

Homespun Hill Farm Production Model
Properly finished grass-fed beef will have plenty of marbling to ensure
tenderness. At Homespun Hill Farm our production model is like fine wine:
"No beef will be processed before its time!" We ensure the animal reaches
its full frame potential and intensively garnishes all the high
vitamin/protein forage, to ensure the marbling is superb.
