Being farmers we find ourselves talking a lot about Mother Earth and Mother Nature but hand in hand is also Father Time. It’s an old fashioned phrase to be sure but with Father’s Day on the horizon it feels like the right occasion to reflect on a little bit of the history of Elmwood Stock […]
Of course it goes without saying that we enjoy eating turkey year-round and love to see it grace our (and your!) holiday table but we also love to ring in the festive season with our grass-fed and pasture-raised beef and lamb. So to celebrate we’ve hand picked our favorite cuts and assembled four special holiday […]
We’re pretty passionate about our organic, pasture-raised meat. In addition to being healthier for our livestock, who get the chance to stretch their legs across 500+ acres of land with regular rotations to fresh pasture, this means healthier meat for you too. Meat coming from animals raised exclusively on pasture have been shown to have […]
Earlier this year we answered the often-asked question of “what makes your beef so special?” and today we’ll be expanding on that and addressing what it means for our livestock to be grass-fed and grass-finished. First, a clarification. Grass, in the form of pasture and naturally growing forages and/or hay in the winter months, is […]
“Leave the world better than you found it” is a phrase I’m no stranger to, especially through my exploration and adoption of organic farming over the years. When I take visitors to the farm on a tour, our first stop is an empty field. I explain to them that this is our “solar powered hamburger […]
Have you ever tried bone broth? It’s often compared to the more traditional stock, but packed with far more nutrients and flavor – it’s so rich and nourishing that we love it as a hot drink in the colder months or when we’re feeling under the weather! Bone broth can, of course, also be used […]
Anyone else impatiently waiting for the warmer weather to make an appearance? In the meantime, we’ve been enjoying cozying up indoors and enjoying cooking up hearty, stick to your ribs type meals to help fuel us when we inevitably do have to venture back outdoors. The recipes below are our current favorites, and we think […]
So glad you asked! But first, a bit of history. The Bell family has been breeding and raising registered Angus cattle here at Elmwood Stock Farm for generations. John Bell’s father and grandfather both sold heifers and bulls to the Central Kentucky community but as the years went on, the herd and the business grew, […]
What better time to enjoy our delicious, organic grass-fed Wagyu-Angus beef than during the holidays? Over the years we’ve fine tuned the way that we breed and raise cattle and through our rotational grazing program (where our cattle are continually exposed to fresh pasture), strict grass-fed feeding regimen (we NEVER feed grain) and dry aging […]
