V-Y Custom Fed Beef

We started the idea for V-Y when we met back in 2014, but it has been a slow process to convert the farm I inherited from my grandfather (and now the additional land we rent from a neighbor) from conventional tillage to pastures and hayfields.

Grandpa always used to joke that he should pay taxes down in Louisiana with all the erosion flowing down the Mississippi, and I could never figure out why that wasn't a motivation for action. If you have that bad of erosion YOU ARE DOING SOMETHING WRONG. Ugh. Anyway, my desire to raise grass fed and finished beef stems from my passion to fix the damage done to this land over the last 30 years from heavy tillage, increase the amount of habitat for wildlife and insects, and raise cows in the most humane way that I can.

My husband probably just wants to be able to afford our taxes... ;)

V-Y specializes in raising heritage breed Red Devon and Devon cross cows on perennial and annual pastures to provide quality grass fed and finished beef to our customers. We do not use feed lots or feed through antibiotics - ever.

We will custom feed both for other farmers seeking specialty raised calves and also for individual customers in addition to our standard finishing process.

We will sell both grain finished and grass finished beef shares. Call to set up an appointment.
