Dexter cattle fatten extremely well on pasture alone. Our Dexters are never given any grain or other commercially produced feeds. Grass-fed, grass-finished Dexter beef is nothing like the typical grass-finished beef found in the supermarket. It is well marbled, tender and full of flavor. The fat tastes like butter melting in your mouth. Dexters are a smaller heritage breed. They are known for their exquisite beef, rich creamy milk, excellent forage ability, hardiness, great maternal insticts and their laidback gentle personality. Dexter cattle excel where most other breeds would fall short in a regenerative and sustainable farm setting. Not long ago, the breed was close to becoming extinct, but over recent years their status is now listed as “recovering” and the numbers are growing every year. Dexter cattle have become highly desirable amongst homesteaders, small land holders and regenerative farms.
American Guinea Hogs are highly suitable for pastures or woodland areas, where they thrive on natural forage. Guinea Hog pork has a very unique flavor and is highly sought after by many high end chefs and butchers for making old world style cured meats. Being a lard type hog, their rendered fat is abundant and appealing to pastry chefs and bakers for use in dough and crusts. Though a smaller hog, they have extremely tender meat and delicious hams. Although once being the most common hog in the southeast, with the disappearance of the homestead lifestyle and the push for more industrial sized hogs they faced critical extinction with less than 50 known to be in existence in the late 1970s-1980s. Since that time the breed as made a slight comeback but the Guinea Hog is still considered threatened and could still very easily still become extinct.
