Does news of poor livestock treatment and living conditions have you seeking out a safer, healthier method of food production?
Animal welfare is a top priority for organic farmers. By law, organic farmers must provide their animals with access to the outdoors and pasture, quality organic feed and safe, clean living conditions. Organic farmers are also required to raise animals without the use of antibiotics or synthetic growth hormones. Additionally, organic animals must be cage-free. The result: healthy, happy animals that are encouraged to exhibit the behaviors nature intended and less exposure to the chemicals that you and your family wish to avoid.
