Back to Grass: The Market Potential for U.S. Grassfed Beef –

Back in the winter I participated in a survey regarding grassfed beef. Recently, the report titled “Back to Grass: The Market Potential for U.S. Grassfed Beef” was published. It is the most comprehensive market study of the growing grassfed beef industry published to date and covers both domestically produced and imported beef. A few highlights are:

Retail grocery sales of grassfed beef increased an amazing 1600% between 2012 and 2016

Grassfed beef imports account for at least 75% of total U.S. grassfed beef sales – and growing at a rapid pace

The “Big Four” packers (JBS, Cargill, Tyson, and National) control more than 80% of all the U.S. beef market

Current estimates put U.S. grassfed beef retail grocery & foodservice sales at $4.0 billion or 4% of today’s total beef market.

Imports – Due to lack of Country of Origin Labeling (COOL) requirements, many consumers are unknowingly purchasing imported grassfed beef. Imported beef passing through our USDA-Inspected plants can legally be labeled “Product of USA”. This should be a huge buy local incentive for consumers!

At Nature’s Gourmet Farm, our cattle are born and raised right here on our farm where we believe that both farmers and consumers are responsible for stewardship of the Earth. That means individuals need to be accountable for learning where their food comes from and for developing a connection with local farmers and food sources. Additionally, we believe in personnel responsibility. That everyone should take responsibility for their own health and that of their family by understanding the effects of food on their body and secure sources of healthy foods.

For the best value order our Premium Grass Fed Beef by the half or whole and save more than $500 vs. individual cuts. And, what could be more convenient than going to your freezer vs. the grocery store where selection is limited and prices are always changing.

Customer Feedback- 

Wednesday, Steven & Vicki picked up their second Half Beef order from our freezer. Friday evening he texted me saying "Just enjoyed our best steak yet from your farm. Enjoyed meeting your wife. Thank Yawl".
