Pasture Raised Meats You Can TRUST
I've been eating grass-fed beef now for 10 years.To say that I'm a meat snob, is sort of an understatement...

I can't think of anything cuter than a baby surrounded by a bunch of puppies. Here’s a photo of my daughter with our latest litter of Jack Russell Terrier puppies, and I must say... she's absolutely adorable. My daughter spent nearly 30 minutes sitting on the floor as these tiny puppies cuddled up to her as closely as they could. Our children adore caring for puppies. They eagerly anticipate the arrival of the puppies when they are born, and they play and cuddle with the puppies nearly every day! Just look at this adorable little puppy, sound asleep 😴 If you are interested in our Jack Russell's you can Check out our website here <<<< Spring is incredibly enjoyable as we often see baby animals all around! Recently, my daughter also assisted a baby lamb that needed extra care. We will walk through the field where our sheep give birth and look for lambs that are not pairing up with their moms and appear skinny. We then take them into our house and give them a bottle of milk. In this particular situation, we were able to determine which mother sheep this lamb belonged to. We put them in a pen together for a few days, and then the mom finally learned how to take care of her baby, and she's doing great now! Spring brings such a delightful sense of renewal as we see new life springing up all around us!
Our Lord and Savior has risen from the dead! Alleluia!From our family at Cunningham Pastured Meats to yours. Happy Easter!
By the middle of April, things are looking good around here.There's green grass everywhere, especially on the range. Cows are fat, baby calves are slick and healthy, and everything looks good. Did you know we turn all our cows out on the range BEFORE they calve? We do not watch our cows or heifers (first-time moms) calve. It's their job to go out and "get the job done." So in May, when we gather the range, there are baby calves EVERYWHERE! On the home place, the grass is about 4-6 inches tall and putting some serious weight on our cattle, which will be harvested in the next 1-3 months. At this time of year, our cattle can gain 2-3 lbs of weight PER DAY! That's some serious weight gain and delicious-tasting beef! Speaking of some serious weight gain, our pastured pigs are doing the same. We just harvested the first batch of pigs a few weeks ago, and they were PIGGY FAT. Pigs thrive in early spring due to cooler weather, which helps them gain weight. They crave fresh green grass in the springtime, going grazing for the new grass shoots. Although they mainly consume grains, they value the green grass to balance their diet. And finally, it's my favorite season of all... Lambing season. Over 50% of our sheep have had their lambs in the last week. Sheep typically lamb closely together, and quickly fill a pasture with bouncing baby lambs! It is always incredible to watch this frail baby lamb be born, struggle to get up to get their first drink of milk, and then, less than 24 hours later, bounce around and chase other lambs. We love the newness of spring with green grass, happily grazing pigs, and baby lambs.
