The Story of Peace and Wonder Ranch
We are thankful for new beginnings for our family and our ranch! We have changed our name to Peace and Wonder Ranch in honor of Our God, Who has brought both peace and wonder to our land and family in ways we never imagined. With Jerry's background in organic dairy farming and organic row crop farming, and Florence's background in marketing and product management, we are pleased to produce quality grass-finished beef and pasture-raised lamb that your taste buds will surely grow fund of.
"We strive to have well managed pastures in order to produce a high quality product for our clients. We spare no expense to ensure a flavorful meat that brings wholeness to their diet. " - Jerry Nuytten
What the animal eats is important too. The diet of the animal is directly related to the nutrients and fats you receive, as well as the flavor profile you came to enjoy. According to a study from Mayo Clinic, when compared with other types of beef, grass-finished beef has some significant heart-health benefits.
Grass-finished beef is higher in key nutrients and has:
- More protein, up to 15% more!
- More heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3s are in their meat because they're eating grasses, and small grains, rich in these heart-healthy fatty acids.
- More conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), a type of fat that's thought to reduce heart disease and cancer risks. CLA has also been tied to improved immunity and anti-inflammation benefits.
- More antioxidants, and vitamins.
It typically takes 24 - 26 months from the time of birth until a calf is ready to be the source of food on your table. A little less for a lamb. Our animals are treated and harvested in the most humanely manner. They experience little stress, and you receive little to no stress hormones in your meat.
