Stop Wondering What's Really in Your Family's Beef

Meet the Family Behind Your Beef
Hi! I’m Elizabeth Lundquist, and this is my husband, Jesse. Jesse works as a meteorologist, and I homeschool our four kids. Our ranch was born out of a search for healing. After a car accident during pregnancy left me in lasting pain, I began learning how food and movement could support recovery. Over time, I experienced firsthand the power of real, nourishing food — and it changed how my family eats and how we raise our cattle.
Today, we’re proud to offer beef that reflects those lessons: raised with care, integrity, and purpose. Our beef — and that from our trusted partner ranch — is born and raised in the USA, never given hormones or antibiotics, and raised using regenerative practices that heal the soil and support healthier ecosystems.
When you buy from us, you’re not supporting a large supply chain — you’re supporting local ranchers, healthy land, and a family business built on the belief that good food can help people heal and thrive.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is your beef different from grass-fed beef at the store?
Most "grass-fed" beef comes from cattle that were grain-finished in feedlots for the last 90-120 days of their lives. This completely changes the meat's nutritional profile. Our cattle eat nothing but grass from birth to processing - 100% grass-fed AND grass-finished. Plus, we provide complete transparency about our farming practices, processing methods, and individual animals.
Why does grass-fed beef cost more than conventional beef?
Raising cattle on pasture their entire lives takes more land, more time, and more care than feedlot operations. Our cattle grow slower and require more management. Processing takes 30 days instead of industrial speeds. However, when you calculate cost per meal, our bulk options often cost the same or less than individual grass-fed cuts at health food stores - with complete transparency about how it was raised.
How do I cook grass-fed beef differently?
Grass-fed beef is leaner than grain-fed, so it cooks faster and at lower temperatures. You can always email Elizabeth with cooking questions - she loves helping customers get the best results.
What's your processing timeline?
From order to delivery takes approximately 4 weeks, with orders shipping out every MON/TUE. You'll receive updates throughout the process, including confirmation when your beef goes to processing and estimated completion dates.
Do you offer shipping?
We do offer FREE Nationwide shipping via UPS, your package will arrive frozen in an insulated box with dry ice.
Can I visit your farm?
Absolutely! We love showing families where their food comes from. However, we require scheduled appointments (no drop-ins please - we've got four kids and need to plan ahead). Email us to schedule a visit. Fair warning: our kids will try to convince you that every cow has a personality. They're not wrong.
