Review of Far West Texas Cattle Co. by TexasRealFood

Far West Texas Cattle Co. offers ranch-to-table beef subscriptions, hoping to make it easier for consumers to buy beef. The farm is located in Alpine, Texas. The business of offering a ranch-to-table beef subscription sounds like a smart idea. It makes it easy both for buyers to buy beef, and for them too, to sell beef. But that is not the best part of the story. It is the fact that 90% of the profit goes to helping people in need. They provide financial assistance to help refugees in Lebanon and starving children in the Democratic Republic of Congo. How they manage to sustain the business operating under this condition is nothing short of a miracle, financially. But they make do, and that is all that matters. Nothing is difficult or impossible to someone who is dedicated to helping others.

Farming Methods, Practices & Certifications

Certified American Grass Fed Association (AGA) Certified American Grass Fed Association (AGA)

Certified American Grass Fed Association (AGA)

Their certification is third-party verified and guarantees that when consumers buy grass fed beef with the American Grass Fed Association logo, they are ensured it was born, raised, and processed in the USA, that the animals were treated humanely, and that they were grazed regeneratively. This confirms to shopkeepers and the consumer that American Grass Fed Association certified producers are improving soils, water quality, biodiversity, and American farming communities. American Grass Fed Beef is more expensive to produce than its foreign and domestic competition, but the price of Certified American Grass Fed Beef reflects the real cost of providing the highest quality, honest grass fed meat to you and your family. They also stand by the rights of farmers and ranchers to make a living that not only supports their families, but encourages next-generation succession.

Grass Fed / Pastured Grass Fed / Pastured

Grass Fed / Pastured

The term “grass fed” (as opposed to grain fed) refers to meat obtained from cows that were raised on a diet of grass and other forage, such as clover; situated in pasture and, when fresh grass is unavailable, hay. This helps to denote the difference between livestock that has been raised in feedlots and generally fed a diet of soy and corn, versus animals that have had access to their natural feeding environment in pasture, which contains grasses, wildflowers, and herbs. This term overlaps with “pasture-raised” and will usually be seen together. Grass-fed beef is also believed to taste better, and be better for the environment, too. There are several organizations that offer a certification for Grass Fed, such as the American Grassfed Association, Certified Grassfed by A Greener World, and Pasture for Life, to name a few.

Regenerative Agriculture Regenerative Agriculture

Regenerative Agriculture

Regenerative agriculture is a conservation and rehabilitation approach to food and farming. Some of its key focuses are topsoil regeneration, increased biodiversity, improving the water cycle, enhancing ecosystems, supporting biosequestration, increasing resilience to climate change, and improving the health and vitality of farm soil. Practices involved with regenerative farming include recycling as much farm waste as possible and adding composting materials from sources outside of the farm.

Transitional Transitional

Transitional

Pursuing an organic certification can be time consuming, expensive, and filled with paperwork. Many farms are transitioning to utilizing organic agricultural practices, but may not be ‘Certified Transitional’ or ultimately pursue an Organic certification. Farms marked with Transitional will still be working towards minimizing, and eventually eradicating, their use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and other mechanical interventions that don’t meet with organic practices.
