Sawyer Creek Cattle - Our Label - Why It Matters!

SHELL LAKE, Wisconsin -- In the world of beef consumption, not all grass-fed labels are created equal. Sawyer Creek Cattle, based in Shell Lake, Wisc., is taking a stand to ensure transparency and authenticity in their 100% Angus grass-fed beef offerings.

It's a common misconception that all products labeled ‘grass-fed’ maintain the same standards, but varying regulations and lacking sufficient oversight to verify labeling and enforcing USDA standards can lead to inconsistencies. Sawyer Creek Cattle adheres to the USDA standards for labeling grass-fed beef accordingly. This means that not only is their beef entirely grass-fed and grass finished, but it is also processed in a facility that complies with all state and federal regulations. A grass-fed label at Sawyer Creek Cattle means that none of the cattle for beef have received a corn-based diet in a feedlot, whether it was after being weaned, several months, or a few weeks in order to finish animals faster.

"We understand the importance of delivering on our promises to customers who seek genuine grass-fed and grass-finished beef," said Adam, a co-owner of Sawyer Creek Cattle. "At our farm, we ensure that our cattle are raised on a purely grass-fed diet from start to finish, allowing us to provide our customers with a product they can trust to feed their families."

By adhering to strict standards and maintaining full control over their production processes, Sawyer Creek Cattle aims to offer a superior grass-fed beef experience. It’s also why their farm advertises that they are all-natural, non-GMO, and don’t use antibiotics or growth hormones in their cattle for meat. This commitment to transparency and quality sets them apart in a market where not all grass-fed beef can boast the same level of authenticity.

There’s no compromise when it comes to the health of our families and our community.
