At Shenandoah Sky Ranch, our cattle are pasture-raised on open rolling land, where they have plenty of space to graze naturally. We use a grass-fed and grain finished approach, meaning our cattle start on native grasses and are then finished on fresh cut forage and some cracked corn to enhance the flavor and marbling of the beef. We believe in providing a clean environment to ensure the health and well being of our cattle, which translates into the best quality beef for your family.

Yes. All our beef is inspected and processed at a USDA facility to ensure the highest standards of safety and quality. Each cut is vacuum-sealed to lock in freshness, so you can enjoy our premium beef with confidence.
