The differences between Good Land Grass Fed Beef and grain-fed beef are many. What most people first notice when tasting our high-quality grass-fed beef is the rich, deep, red-meat flavor so lacking in the factory-produced grain-fed beef common in today’s marketplace. We’ve had scores of older customers tell us that this is how beef used to taste when they were young – and they love it! Added to the wonderful flavor of Good Land Grass Fed Beef are a plethora of healthful attributes. For instance, the Mayo Clinic reports that grass-fed beef is higher in heart-healthy Omega 3 fatty acids, CLA (conjugated linoleic acid) a type of fat that is thought to reduce heart disease and cancer risks, and contains much more antioxidant vitamins, such as vitamin E, than conventional, grain-fed beef.† Our cattle never receive grain, antibiotics, or added growth hormones. Their diets are based on the grasses, forbs and the wide varieties of naturally occurring plants found on their native ranges. The cattle are rarely held in tight corrals and spend the bulk of their lives on expansive, natural rangelands enjoying clean air, fresh water and the peacefulness of nature. They enjoy a very humane existence – so much so that many of us wish we could lead a simpler life, free from worry and stress like they enjoy! |

The Spanish cattle we raise are smaller, more active, and hardier than traditional cattle. These cattle don’t require feedlots, barns, or any of the petroleum-based care that the bigger, slower breeds require. Additionally, most of the modern cattle breeds have been selectively bred to convert grain to meat in gargantuan feedlots. Conversely, our Spanish-blooded cattle have retained their natural genetics that best convert grass to delicious, healthful meat without the need for grain, feedlots or heavy doses of human interventions. As you can imagine, ranchers love to raise these cattle because they thrive in natural landscapes with little need for added help. Their energy level and athletic ability allow them to easily range far from water, and their roaming behavior can positively impact the overall environmental health of the rangelands. Grasslands need large grazing animals to remain healthy, and these active cattle fill that role well. Studies have shown that proper cattle management can reverse desertification, improve wildlife habitat, sequester carbon from the atmosphere, and help watersheds provide cleaner, healthier water. |

![]() Brought to the New World from Spain over 500 years ago by Christopher Columbus, these cattle descend from a noble bovine lineage. These cattle thrived in the Americas and quickly “went native” and became the indigenous and dominant bovine specie throughout the Southern and Western States, all the way down to the tip of South America. They are known by many names, but they are most often called Corriente, Criollo, or Longhorn. We simply call them Spanish cattle. They are naturally lean and athletic and the meat from these cattle has a deep, red color and a delectable flavor. Our Spanish cattle, raised naturally, are the source of the tastiest, most healthful grass-fed beef on the market. These hardy cattle posses a higher nutritional content than their feedlot brethren and they are the pinnacle of delicious, mouthwatering beef. In terms of leanness, our cattle are akin to bison, and similarly require only a diet of grass and water to thrive. From these simple components, Good Land Grass Fed Beef is able to offer flavorful beef to be enjoyed by everyone - from families gathered around a BBQ, to patrons of the swankiest gourmet steakhouses and to your local natural health food store! |

Our cattle, like their Spanish ancestors, thrive in the environment and climate of the Southwestern United States. Most of the Good Land Grass Fed cattle are raised at our ranch in Kansas, but we also rely on select ranchers throughout the Southwest who share our vision, values and strict adherence to our quality and purity standards.
