Our Farming Philosophy

At Smith Family Farm we are passionate about the care of our livestock and soils. Utilizing low-input, regenerative farming practices, we strive to build healthy soils that help remove carbon from the atmosphere and grow delicious grass for our livestock. Such practices include adaptive grazing, planting annual grasses, winter grazing, hay unrolling, and bale grazing. In short, our goal is to farm with nature and not against it. 

A good healthy soil translates into healthy, happy livestock! Animal Welfare is extremely important to us, so we give every animal their best life they can live. At no time do we use sub-therapeutic antibiotics, artificial hormones, or finish feeding cattle in a feedlot environment. Instead, our cattle are on pasture and regenerating the land. Our feeder calves are on pasture and not given any grain up until the last three months before they go to the processor. They are also given minerals and probiotics to promote good gut health.
