If you follow along with us, you know our big sticking point and a large part of the history behind why we founded 410 Farms Grass Fed Beef is consumer transparency. We believe all consumers have a right to know how their beef was raised and where it came from. Most importantly, even if you're not a supporter of grass fed beef specifically, we believe in supporting the American Rancher and high quality USA born and raised beef products. 

Current products on the market like the Beyond Meat patty or the Impossible Burger are marketed to "sizzle" like real meat, have artificial grill marks, and even "bleed" like real meat - and are often seen being marketed right next to real meat under the premise that they are "even better than the real thing". Many companies rely on deceptive marketing tactics, misleading marketing, or just downright smear campaigns against the beef industry in an effort to promote these increasingly popular products. Supporters of legislation like the the Real MEAT Act of 2019 believe consumers should have the option to select their products from a level playing field with clear and straightforward information provided for each product available.

Instead of having a beef between types of producers, we should all just GET ALONG and agree that the most important thing is to EAT AMERICAN BEEF and support our American Ranchers.

Where does your beef ACTUALLY come from? Did you know you can buy meat at the store that says Product of the USA on the label but it actually could have been born, raised, and slaughtered overseas?

Will the Beyond Beef and Impossible Burgers take over the world?

Spring time is beautiful on our farm. It means baby calves, wildflowers, and leaving nasty winter weather behind. It also means bringing on a new set of challenges with spring babies. We work hard every day to take care of our farm, our cattle, and our livelihoods. We invite you to learn about what we do and why, and to ask questions about what you don’t understand when it comes to raising livestock.

The agricultural industry is being unfairly attacked and bullied on a daily basis. For every ridiculous and inaccurate post I see on social media on a daily basis, I feel this is the least I can do to provide a little truth and education to those who want to learn. We have to find a way to bridge the gap.

The primary operation at 410 Farms is Green Acres Grass Fed Beef – which is a true farm to table program where we raise high quality certified grass fed angus beef that we sell direct to consumer both online through our website and at farmers markets.
