You want to eat well. You want your family’s health to be the number one priority. We’re with you. It’s why we have pastured livestock farmers on staff, and it’s why we grow and cook our own food. It’s why we curate every recipe and every ingredient in our supplements.
Dairy production practices affect the composition of the final product, and most importantly, the impact on the planet and its climate. As farmers and consumers, we know that pastured livestock can help mitigate climate change. Grasslands pull carbon from the atmosphere and store it in the soil, “sequestering” it there safely. We know that small, family farms are only viable if they have a market for their product, and we believe in supporting farmers who also behave like the future matters.
Check out a few of the reasons the Truly Grass Fed group of farmers convinced us of their commitment to sustainability!
Ireland boasts a yearly grass growth rate that exceeds the European average by more than a third, so it’s no wonder this majestic nation is home to some of the world’s finest grass-fed dairy. Of the many grass varieties, dairy farmers tend to cultivate varieties that offer exceptional nutritional value and easy digestibility for cows. Truly Grass Fed farmers also add clover to the mix for nutritional value and to aid the natural nitrogen balance in the soil.
Limestone soils are one of Ireland’s most powerful assets, and they are the basis for a Truly Grass Fed diet. Lime is a natural neutralizing agent and it is massively beneficial to grass growth. To keep our pastures fresh, we encourage our farmers to test their soils every three to five years, add the recommended nutrients and reseed as appropriate to replenish grass variety.
Let us know how grass fed affects you. Ask us any questions you have about our ingredients, our recipes, our manufacturer. We're an open book!
We do grass fed in the U.S. too! We recently started working with another supplier in Wisconsin who is a family-run cooperative of grass fed dairy farmers. If you see the logo on the left, it's made with U.S. milk!
