What type of cows do you have?
We raise mainly Herefords, Galloway, and Black Angus cattle.  Our cows are bred to a Black Angus bull which gives us a mix of Hereford/Angus, Galloway/Angus and Angus calves. 

 

What is the difference between cows and steers?

Cows are females that have had a calf.  Heifers are females that have not had a calf yet.  Steers are castrated males.  We have a mix of cows, heifers, calves, and steers on the farm.  Typically the steers get grain-finished and heifers get finished on grass as they get better condition/finish that way.  

 

Are your cattle grain fed or grass fed?

We practice Intensive Pasture Management which means the cattle move to a different section of pasture daily.  Over winter they enjoy hay out on pasture.

Some of our cattle will come off pasture to get finished on grain and hay.  The steers finish nicely on grain with great marbling in the steaks.

The cattle that remain on the pasture are grass-fed and grass-finished.  They do not get grain in their lifetime and will go to market as grass-finished beef.

Please reach out to carrie@mayhillfarmwi.com for more information.

 

How is meat packaged?
All meat we have for sale is frozen.  Most cuts are vacuum sealed in plastic.  Occasionally organ meats or specialty items might be wrapped in freezer paper.  All beef and pork is labeled and has appropriate labeling showing that it was processed at an inspected facility.

Chickens are vacuum sealed in plastic and froze.  Chickens are processed at a USDA inspected facility.  

Do you want egg cartons?
We would gladly take gently used egg cartons.  We strive to reuse packaging as we can!  It helps us keep our egg prices reasonable and keeps packaging out of landfills.
