Meadow Oaks farm raises and sells the finest Angus Grass-fed Beef and Pastured Pork, serving the Indiana and Illinois area . We are located northwest of Lafayette Indiana. We are continually humbled by the response of our customers who are grateful for the opportunity to purchase a quality eating experience from animals that are raised humanely on grass with no hormones and antibiotics the natural way. What we do is to produce a superior and clean grass-fed product with the right genetics to get the job done. Along the way, we find that we use less fuel, have greater enjoyment and are going to leave our land better than we found it. We also know that when we eat a grass-fed steak or enjoy a grass-fed hamburger, we are promoting our own better health and that is important. We are the Walkers, Greg, Lynn, Lauren and Ian.
If you are in the market for grass-fed genetics we have them available. What we have been striving to do from the very beginning is to produce a type of female that you do not have to check every two hours when she is calving. We look once a day to tag and weigh what was born the night before. We expect our cows and heifers to calve on their own... and they do. We also object to being assaulted by a new mother and for our cows to be flighty and ill behaved and they aren't. We are opposed to helping calves nurse. Since we began in 1999 with the registered Angus, we have chosen our bulls and replacements from our trouble free cows and most cows in the herd trace back to 4, now elderly cows, and we aim to keep it that way. We have saved heifers from those 4 basic troublefree cow family lines and saved our own bulls from those lines, anything else became T bones. No outside females have been purchased after the second year.
6 years ago, we added Ohlde Cattle Co. Genetics by purchasing 3 Ohlde bulls and using OCC bulls AI. Still the same good old girls, but with the addition of all that Ohlde's are famous for. This was done to bring down the frame size of our cattle to the 4-5 frame size, to eliminate some of the air between their bellies and the ground. We want a thick, moderate easy keeping cow that doesn't require owning a feed mill to maintain.
Our cattle are Grass-powered as God intended, whether you are looking for breeding stock, or to fill your freezer with Grass-fed beef, we are here for you. We have never had a complaint, but only rave reviews on our grass-fed freezer beef, so eating quality is there. We eat our own beef and have a vested interest in providing a surerior grass-fed product. We are committed to producing a quality eating experience for anyone within driving distance of our area. Our grassfed beef customers come from Chicago, Northwest Indiana, Bloomington Indiana, Elkhart Indiana, Lafayette Indiana, Kankakee Illinios, and anywhere in between. We are very humbled by the fact that our people will drive all over from Illinois and Indiana to enjoy our Grass-fed beef!
We are producing a type, we think it is a good type, the type that will make you money, or give you a great grassfed eating experience, so give us a call or send an email and come out and look.
