Meet our Farmers from around the U.S.

The biggest missing link in the grass fed supply chain is the finisher - the pasture alternative to a feedlot. It sounds easy, but there is much skill and art to producing a high quality product that you will savor while also having a positive impact.

The Audubon Conservation Ranching program is made up of nearly 100 ranches covering 2.5 million acres of American heartlands. The American farmers and ranchers whose beef has gone into Blue Nest Beef so far include 8 ranches covering 200,000 acres:
