Grass to Food Farm

Grass to Food started in… well to be honest it seems like it hasn’t stopped starting. Nothing about the beginning of this add/venture has formalized.  I can’t decide whether I want to call us a farm or a ranch. We’re a lot of both. To be a good animal rancher and/or husband, one must first and foremost practice grass farming. We’re located in Elgin, TX right outside of Austin just far enough away from the crunchy hippie cooties. It’s a quiet, almost idyllic (aside from the poverty) little town with a blue collar personality all its own. The area’s an au-naturel gem, relatively untainted by big-city influence for the time being, and we’re enjoying our pastural life as a part of it. I’m fortunate to proclaim the ideology of “grass to food” from the shoulders of agrarian giants namely Gene Logsdon, Allan Nation (RIP), and Joel Salatin. GTF is a theory for allowing animals to produce food for us in the most efficient, basic, and healthy way possible – with the very same methods before homo-sapiens intervened in the last few centuries. (coinciding with the sharpest rise in food related illnesses in the history of recorded mankind). ***VEGAN EARMUFF WARNING*** The healthiest, happiest, tastiest animal based foodstuffs are such because throughout life they are given access to a varied diet of grasses, bugs, legumes, worms, seeds, and forbs from which they can choose at their instinctive discretion.
